A friend of mine recommended Tuscookany to me and Bellorcia in particular. She couldn’t say enough about the area and the incredible experience she had learning from Chef Laura. She was so right on both counts! Val d’Orcia is beautiful and the villa is absolutely wonderful with stunning views! But the fun we had learning from Chef Laura and the incredible crew at the Villa is something we will never forget. Chef Laura was amazing. Her passion for cooking and teaching were evident in everything she did. Not only did we have fun but thanks to Chef Laura’s encouragement we learned a number of recipes we will be brave enough to try at home. Even my reluctant cooking husband loved the experience. :)

Claudia, our house manager was fantastic always going out of her way to make our trip enjoyable. Eno and Antonella, our two wonderful kitchen helpers, always had smiles on their faces and could not have been kinder. All the staff at the villa went out of their way to make us feel at home. We felt like we were part of a family. Speaking of which, we could not have asked for a nicer group of fellow vacationers to share our cooking adventures with.

All I can say is spend a week at Bellorcia. You won’t be sorry!
