French Language & Cooking Courses in France
 

The convivial atmosphere in the kitchen puts everyone at ease for learning and having a great time. A hands-on experience with personal attention and a maximum of 10 per class. High quality teaching by your chef. Complete beginners through to gourmet chefs feel at home as dishes from easy-to-prepare one-minute dishes to that special gourmet meal are taught.










This course is aimed at those who love presentation and those extra details which give your dishes that special something to delight friends at a dinner party in a delightfully relaxed, warm atmosphere. Our chef's imagination has led him to invent some delicious dishes that will enchant your plate and awaken your tastebuds to a palate of flavours with easy-to-follow gastronomic French recipes.

Our relaxed, informal Cooking Course is given in French with a discreet translation for non French speakers and is a pleasant way to immerse yourself in the French way of life and eat good provincial, family-style food at the same time.

Participants have their French Cooking class in the afternoons, then everyone sits down at table to enjoy their creations. The 6-day French Cooking Course includes:

  • 5 morning French Classes in the General French Language Course

  • 4 afternoon Cooking Classes where you learn to make typical, French Country dishes, sauces and desserts. Start at 2.30 pm

  • 6-days accommodation and all meals (breakfast, lunch and dinner) except Saturday lunch and dinner

I just wanted... to tell you how much I enjoyed my stay at your home: Château Matel. I really do feel like I was staying at a truly French home and not a vacation spot. I loved the French country cooking... What surprised me was the amount and quality of side trips you included for us. I felt like I had a personal tour guide. Lin, Louisiana

We had such a wonderful time at your Chateau. My husband and I were so relaxed. He did not want to leave. Great food! Great wine! Great company! Tess, USA

What a hoot!!! You obviously know your stuff when it comes to food. Really enjoyed the class. L.B.

This was the best class I've ever taken! Lin

You should be very proud of what you offer; this is an outstanding opportunity for people to meet and learn French in a most convivial situation. Christine

What a fun, delicious week. A few secrets from the chef, but more details and refined methods were the highlights of the class. Great class size. A lovely location and wonderful French country feel. Mary
