Cooking Class in Your Villa in Umbria

A Private Italian Cooking Experience In Your Villa

Imagine spending an afternoon in your Umbrian villa while an Italian chef guides you into the secrets of traditional recipes, fresh local products, and the flavors that define Italy.
With my private cooking classes, I bring authentic Umbrian cuisine directly to your holiday home—so you can enjoy a relaxed, intimate, and delicious experience with your partner, family, or group of friends.

Whether you’re passionate about Italian food or simply curious to learn something new during your stay, my classes are fully hands-on, fun, immersive, and designed around your preferences.

What Make This Cooking Class Unique

An authentic experience—not a tourist attraction

No demonstrations or pre-cooked ingredients. You will chop, knead, taste, season, and cook everything yourself under my guidance.

Seasonal Umbrian ingredients

I select fresh produce from local markets, small farmers, and artisans—olive oil, vegetables, truffles (in season), cured meats, artisanal cheeses, organic flour.

In your villa, at your pace

You don’t have to travel or join groups of strangers. I come to you, bringing everything needed for the class.

Customized menus

The experience is tailored to your tastes and dietary preferences (vegetarian | vegan | gluten-free | family-friendly).

From class to dinner

Your creations become a beautifully plated dinner, enjoyed in the comfort of your villa.
