The cooking lessons were very fun! Learned many exciting dishes such as pizza, pasta, and risotto to name a few. Friendly and helpful host family. Excellent breakfast with yummy orange juice. I would recommend this course to anyone who loves food.

This was a very enjoyable course. Everyone was warm and friendly, and I did not feel awkward attending on my own. Lessons were lively and instructive. The food was delicious and sitting down to eat it after the class rewarding and convivial.

We had a wonderful trip and a great experience interacting with the staff and other guests. It began to feel like "family". The cooking classes were informative, "hands on" lessons. They were followed by delicious meals. We would recommend this program to others.

Really enjoyable course, fun cooking lessons and nice to have the rest of the day. Enjoyed the hospitality of the family, particularly that drinks were provided free of charge during the lesson and meal. Hotel accommodation was a high standard too, and good breakfasts. Highly recommend it.

Highly recommended! Superb location to explore and sightsee before starting lessons late afternoon. The classes were fun and the (4 course every night) food was delicious!The staff were super-friendly -and a good mix of people on the course.

Loved every minute of it! Ticked all the boxes in terms of chilling out in mornings, sightseeing and shopping in afternoons followed by cooking dinner and eating it with others there.

This was an awesome holiday. I didn't care for the first room I was in, so asked to be changed... even though on single suppliment they gave me a new room right away. It was perfect. Palmira was a delightful teacher, and the food always amazing. You can go to so many day trips from Sorrento!

Everything went according to plan and was certainly made to feel welcome.Not a problem travelling on my own and will be looking for a course to do again next year!
A Bazdikian, Vancouver, Canada - Jul 2012
the hotel and cooking school are ideally located to explore sorrento and its surroundings, beaches, sights, etc. The cooking class and resulting dinner gave a taste of authentic and fresh Italian cuisine and hospitality. the trip offered to Capri was a great way to experience the Mediterranean.

I had great holidays in Sorrento. The family that owns the hotel and school is great. Everybody was super kind, very open, in a wonderful mood. The dishes that we learned to cook were very interesting. Can only recommend it.
C Luscombe, Boroughbridge, UK - Jul 2011
I can't recommend the course in Sorrento enough. It was very relaxed and friendly, the staff couldn't do enough for you and I had a great time. I enjoyed it so much I extended my trip for a couple of days as I didn't want to go home! The only reason I came back was because they were fully booked!
Q Lai, Coquitlam, Canada - Jun 2011
The staff were great, very friendly and helpful. The lessons were very hands on and the chef demonstrates and explains how to do something very clearly. It's a great price for what you're getting and definitely take the optional tour to Capri!

This was such a brilliant experience. You really feel like you're part of the large Italian family. It was lovely to sit down with all different types of people in the evening and enjoy very high quality food. And it was so easy to go site seeing in the mornings, I saw so much!
M Amy Libit, New York, USA - Jan 2011
We had a wonderful time. As we were the only people there for that week, we basically had private tuition which was fantastic. The food was delicious and I can see making what we learned at home. The staff were all very friendly- it's basically all family, and they truly make you feel welcome. The rooms were clean but basic. Depending on your standards, they may or may not be to your liking. The wireless internet didn't reach most of the rooms (although it did reach ours). There is a lounge area for guests with access but it would be better if it reached all the rooms. The breakfast was again basic, but lovely. The homemade marmalade and fresh squeezed orange juice were particular treats. The only things to improve might have been a better schedule in advance of our stay. Better maps from the train and bus stations to the b&b. Also, as they offer such a diversity of tuition and accommodation options, if you don't see what you want in the packages, ask GoLearnTo.com

Located about 15min walk from Sorrento proper. Large room w/ comfortable bed, but it is very basic. You cook what the chef decides (didn't see any gelato), though he prob will accomodate requests. I had a good time, but it will depend on the 'mood' of the kitchen staff and students.

I really enjoyed my stay - Chef Biagio and all of the staff were very friendly and I am now tempted to buy a pasta machine!
