          "The most fun life-changing event ever"

          First of all, Eric is an amazingly talented and experienced chef. His skill, quiet confidence and ability to teach, made for an extremely productive 6 days. I got exactly what I’d hoped for, a comprehensive introduction to French cooking techniques as well as the ever important presentation of dishes. I was the only student in my class so recipes were reduced to serve 2 or 3 which will be far more useful for me than preparing primarily for large dinner parties.

          The property is beautiful with almost every tree, shrub or sprout happily producing food or flavor. The house has a warm and cozy atmosphere, the guest rooms are spacious and comfortable. The kitchen is nothing less than inspirational. And everything is sparkling clean and well looked after.

          Honestly, this was one of my all time favorite holidays ever!

          Be sure to hone up on your Frisbee skills! Mac, the laconic and lovable house dog has what can only be described as an obsession with his red disc…but he’s always polite about it. Who’s a good dog?

          "Amazing "

          This is quite honestly one of the best holidays I have enjoyed. Maynard, the chef taught us so much in such a short time. The accommodation is comfortable and location superb. Excellent facilities.
