The 6 of us stayed at La Volpe e L'uva (see separate review) and signed up for one cooking class during our 5 night/4 day stay in May 2012. Frankly I am surprised to read such raving reviews here, especially from people who took 3-4 cooking classes. You need to be quite wealthy to do that! Had it not been... More

We had a wonderful time cooking and eating in this lovely old farmhouse outside of Perugia. Stefania, our teacher, and Raffaella, our hostess, were gracious and eager to please. We can't wait to try out our recipes here at home. More

Checked into the 'farm' on April 12th, and checked out on the 18th. Right away, i was very pleasantly surprised by my apartment. It is a one bedroom, very comfortable apt with everything I needed. Since my 2 friends did the booking, i didnt know any of the details. We did a total of 4 classes with Stefania, who is... More

Great day of cooking at a farm in Umbria. Courses were easy to learn and reproduce at home, yet were new menu items for me to cook. Rafaella gives good directions to get to her house, it is out of Perugia, I recommend a car and extra time to get there. She will be waiting with fresh coffee for you! More

As a 50th birthday present to myself, this was the most anticipated trip I had ever planned. From the moment of arrival late one spring afternoon I felt part of this Umbrian family. The rooms were clean, tidy and well supplied, and the views were something straight out of a Francis Mayes best seller. Rafaela was the most gracious of... More

This is something different you can do while travelling, a cooking day in an Umbrian farm. My husband, my two teenager daughters and I had a super family day, cooking and eating homemade tagliatelli, melanzane with cheese and the best tiramisu ever. The farm, set in a beautiful hillside, produces its own wine ( delicious) and olive oil ( we... More

My husband and I stayed at the farmhouse and had the cooking lesson. We were very fortunate as we were the only ones in the lesson that day, so we felt very special. Although I think Rafaella the owner would make everyone feel very special and welcomed. We arrived and were warmly greeted and shown to our "apartment". We were... More

After traveling through Europe for 3 months, our day with "Let's Cook in Umbria" made our 5 top most memorable experience list. We had such a wonderful time at Raffella's home learning to cook, then eating our beautiful meal with new friends from the class. There are so many touristy things that you can do while traveling, but very few... More

The farm is placed on a hillside and with the changing light you open the shutters to a different view every morning. Its a narrow, twisting drive up to the farm but the roads are in good condition and hardly used by other traffic. There are two small towns within easy reach, 5minutes drive, where you can shop for food... More

Cooking in Umbria - what a dream and Raffaella at Let's Cook in Umbria helped make it all come true. La Volpe e L’Uva is a wonderful farm with perfect accommodations and gorgeous views of the Umbrian countryside. Cooking classes were wonderful and I've already tried out a couple of the delicious dishes Stefania taught us in class. Everyone at... More
