April 16-20 2026, at Remparts House in the medieval village of Mailhac in the south of France. This four-night culinary retreat offers an intimate introduction to rustic traditional French cooking led by Chef Jack in one of Europe's oldest historic villages. You will explore the lively local markets of the Minervois wine region, learn time-honoured cooking techniques in a beautifully restored 12th-century stone house, and enjoy vineyard tastings amongst the low hills and fields of vines that characterise this tranquil corner of the Languedoc. The experience balances hands-on cookery instruction with leisurely moments on rooftop terraces, countryside walks along hiking trails, and the warm hospitality of a home that has stood for nearly a millennium. Pricing shown is an approximate USD equivalent converted from EUR. Please confirm the final price, currency, and options for single or double occupancy with the host directly before booking.
