Full+details+for+ France+2014 

 // View of St Emillion //  “Cooking with Lynne MacMillan” will be returning to France again in 2014. Southwest France is the current hotspot for French Cuisine so why not grab this opportunity for an all-inclusive holiday with cooking lessons by Lynne thrown in? In addition to all things you'd expect from a trip to sunny Southwest France, Lynne will take you to local markets in wonderful medieval villages. You'll discuss what seasonal fresh seasonal fruit, vegetables, fish and meat to buy with local farmers, and will help prepare an evening meal.

Accommodation will be in a 13th Century Mill. It is now beautifully restored to accommodate 12 people in ensuite double rooms, and in the tranquil garden there's a swimming pool.

You will discover so much about life in Southwest France when you visit duck farms, a cheese maker and vineyards, including the world renown wine town of St.Emillion that dates back to the Middle Ages. If you haven't cooked an evening meal you'll dine at local restaurants or bistros.

In Gascony you may choose to go on a painting excursion with a local artist who is formerly a Melbourne resident.

There will only be one trip to France in September 2014. The trip will cost approximately $5400. which covers 2 weeks in Mezin, airfares, all local transport, excursions, meals and wine [excluding wine shipped to Australia !] plus 5 days in Paris.

Bookings must be confirmed in December 2013 with a small deposit to “hold” mill and reserve vans for local transport.
