COME AND JOIN US FOR THE MONTALERO TRUFFLE AND PORCINI SEASON – UNIQUE COOKING EVENTS IN THE HEART OF ITALY

8 DAY TRUFFLE AND PORCINI COOKERY COURSES

September- November 2024 and 2025

We will hold an optional morning truffle hunt during this course, included in the course itinerary. Led by our experienced truffle hunter, Pier Angelo with his faithful hound, you will explore the beautiful nearby ancient woods and meadows for the elusive white truffle. And remember – ​Finders Keepers!

During this period, many of our dishes, used in the cookery lessons and in the menus, will include fresh white truffles and porcini mushrooms. Dishes can be served excluding either ingredients, if preferred.

8 day courses include 7 nights accommodation, 5 day courses 4 nights and 3 day courses 3 nights.

The perfect holiday

Loved the diversity of the chefs and their cooking styles and teachings. The whole experience was purely magical. Amazing food, wine, location but most of all the most special part that I have taken away is feeling like part of the family.

(Matt Faull, Jul 2023)

Don’t miss this

Italian cookery experience and more. A fabulous week at the most stunning location. I could not fault anything, from the lovely family atmosphere, to the ancient Castello, topped off with fun times and great hands on cookery.

(Amanda S, Jul 2023)

Magical Castello

The whole Montalero Experience was magical ! Frankly beyond our wildest dreams . We had gambled as oldies on going abroad again… But it was our Silver Wedding, and a waiter in England had raved about his experience at the Cookery School there.
