The Greek, Roman, Arabs, Normans, Spanish and British – all in some way left their mark and in modern day Sicilian cooking it is very evident. "Discovering Sicilian cookery is like discovering Sicilian history".
The cooking courses are based at the enchanting Villa Sicily. It is 8 days and 7 nights booked on a private estate that dates back to 1848 with luxurious bedrooms. All modern with views of either the sea or of the Sicilian countryside.
Imagine waking up to clear blue skies each morning with breakfast served to you outside while you gaze dreamily upon the the sea.
For your pleasure you will find an outdoor pool surrounded by almond and olive trees, with a terrace where you can relax and enjoy the soft breeze coming in off of the sea.
