French Cooking Holiday at Les Ruches

Some Comments from our Guests

"Our holiday at Les Ruches has been everything that we hoped it would be and more! Relaxing, enjoyable and fun as well improving our cooking skills of course. Nina and Mark are a lovely couple who made us feel welcome from the start... sitting outside in the evenings with delicious food, wine and good company is something I will always remember"

"What a wonderful way of life Mark and Nina have created through their vision and hard work and skill! It has been a joy and a privilege to share it with them during these perfect summer days. We have hugely enjoyed and benefited from Mark's expertise in the kitchen and his patience in teaching us to make the delicious meals which we all shared in so friendly a spirit. Thank you so much Mark and Nina."

"Thank you for a fantastic holiday. The numerous highlights included the recipe for the candied orange peel, making a mousse and the visit to the bees! The hammock was also greatly appreciated and the earl grey tea! The whole stay has been wonderfully relaxing, a complete break from life"

"Have spent a really wonderful few days at Les Ruches learning to cook with Mark. He and Nina have a great future with their cookery school and chambres d'hotes - they've worked hard to make their home a joy to stay in - well done and I'll be back."
