Our
cooking vacations at the Tenuta
Castel Venezze will allow you to immerse yourself in the culture and
lifestyle of Veneto and learn to cook authentic Italian dishes in an informal
and friendly environment.
Classes are limited to 8/10 participants. The classes are small enough
to accommodate cooks of all levels and are ideal for small groups of family
and friends.
It is also possible to bring along a non-participating partner who can
spend the day enjoying the surroundings, sightseeing or playing golf and
could then join the group at dinnertime.
