Holidaying in the Loire and want a sample of what we offer?
This is the perfect experience if you’re already in the area and want to experience what we do — without the commitment of a full stay.
The Details
- Join us in the kitchen from 10am. We’ll cook together through the morning, then sit down to enjoy what we’ve made over a late three-course lunch. You’ll leave around 3–4pm with a folder of recipes and a few other treats, lunch very much sorted for the day.
- We will focus on local seasonal produce and other ingredients to prepare a starter, main and dessert. We’ll ask about your tastes, preferences and interests when you book, then build the menu around those.
- On Tuesdays and Fridays, you can also add a market tour before the course begins, if you’d like to learn more about the food and culture of the region first.
The DB&B or Overnight stay option
- If you’ve come some distance — or you’d simply rather not drive after a day that includes wine — we also offer the day as a Dinner, Bed & Breakfast experience.
Rather than wrapping up mid-afternoon, the day shifts to a more relaxed pace, with a light working lunch, then dinner together as the highlight of the evening, followed by a comfortable night’s stay and breakfast the next morning before you go on your way.
Cost
- Day course: €295 per person.
- Dinner B&B option: An additional €200 per person.
- Market Visit: On Tuesdays and Fridays you can add an optional trip to Thouars farmer’s market for €35.
- A deposit of €125 per participant is due at the time of booking. The balance is due 7 days before the course start date.
Available Dates
- We offer this course most days of the week, most of the year. Get in touch using the booking form link below with your choice of dates and we’ll check availability and get back to you.
