in France

Come and learn to cook on our relaxed friendly hands-on Summer cooking course  in  the  Dordogne, France.

Set in our magnificent recently converted stone barn, Cookinfrance is a cooking course with a difference where you can relax and learn to cook. We'll cook some great classic and contemporary dishes from around the world in practical hands-on style.

If you have ever wanted to cook and present dishes like the professionals and television chefs, you will be able to learn how on your summer cooking course in France. If you enjoy cooking among friends and like-minded people in a warm, friendly and relaxed atmosphere, then come and learn to cook with us, where you'll feel right at home.


"Summer afternoon - Summer afternoon... the two most beautiful words in the English language." (Henry James 1843 - 1916)

So, a summer cooking course in France rather than a formal cookery school, you will learn to cook with techniques you can later use to simplify your busy home life, and impress family and friends.

Throughout your summer cooking course, using fresh local ingredients, you will be preparing, cooking and, most important this - eating local, Mediterranean and 'Pacific rim' cuisine.

You will learn:

On your summer cooking course in France we will introduce you to ways of cooking exciting and varied vegetarian food (and we're not talking 'nut roasts' here!), light summer salads and cold soups, and cool ourselves down with ice creams and sorbets.

Learn to cook French food in France.

Learn to cook on a barbecue without incinerating food, family and friends. And while you learn to cook, stay at our comfortable and spacious  centrally-heated accommodation.

Or, if you have your own self catering accommodation nearby, just come and learn to cook. Your non-cooking family, or partner, are also welcome to stay with us at reduced rates.
