Italian Cooking Classes

We believe that the long tradition of our love of good food and wine is an expression of our fundamental values woven into the fabric of our history, and we have chosen to use these traditions to provide a different and entertaining way for you to discover the genuine old Tuscany with a modern approach for that special occasion, intimate meal or for any occasion.

If you wish to take advantage of the privacy of the villa without the fuss of having to shop and prepare a meal yourself then take the opportunity during your stay to try the delights of our Personal Chef Paola!

Personal Chef at Villa le Farnete

Paola has a great passion for the culinary arts and experience of first-class cuisine, thereby bringing the enjoyment of eating (well, naturally) directly to your table at the Villa. An excellent restaurant in your home, that is our definition of our Personal Chef.

Treat yourself to an evening - or even a whole week, whatever you desire! - for a truly unique and luxurious experience: a professional chef who buys and prepares fresh seasonal products, serving and presenting them elegantly in an unforgettable, extremely personal dining experience!

Dining in your villa, instead of in a fine restaurant, may cost a little more, but comes with all the advantages of that certain intimacy which allows you to relax and enjoy a top-class meal without having to sacrifice any of the ease and intimacy a homely atmosphere provides.

We can also arrange for our personal chef to prepare lunches as well as dinners in your villa.

In this way, you can have the luxury of enjoying dishes prepared especially for you and your friends and family in the privacy of the villa.

The specially prepared meals can be served under the loggia at the very top of the Villa, (from where you have a spectacular view of the Italian garden and the Arno Valley), outside in the garden, or on the terrace. Menus include typical regional foods and local, fresh ingredients.
