Central Tuscany: Cooking Class at Agriturismo or farmhouse

Posted by (New York) on

Hi All!

My fiance and I are going to be in Central Tuscany for a portion of our honeymoon in May, and we'd like to take a cooking class at an Agriturismo or similar type of country farmhouse in the area. We're staying in San Quirico d'Orcia, and are hoping to find something that's within a 30 minute drive (thinking Montalcino, Montepulciano, Pienza area). I've come across a few by doing a simple Google search, but I wanted to see if anyone had any firsthand recommendations.

Also, if anyone has recommendations for a nice long leisurely lunch in Pienza or Montalcino, please feel free to share. We're hikers, and are going to be walking from San Quirico d'Orcia to both towns. After the morning walks we'll be hungry and ready to enjoy a relaxing lunch!

Thanks in advance.

Mark,
I am at this Castle, Farmhouse next week. Not sure if this works for you but as fellow Hikers we are. This Castle is a B&B, they offer cooking classes with all ingredients from the farm, then you eat the meal. Just outside the town of Sienna, 14th century castle. If U can stay, get the Tower room. OMG!!!!!

Sienna is the perfect Tuscany town. Farm has there own wine and olive oil too. Look over there website. Heather can answer any and all questions, she is Fabulous to work with.

Congrats on the Honeymoon. One Hell of a way to start a relationship, Good job Mr.
