Non Painting/Cooking Partners and Friends

Non-painting partners are very welcome, and receive a 10% discount. Partners are invited to join in all the excursions, wine tasting, meals, etc. When painting or cooking tuition takes place in the morning we can organise other activities such as golf, guided walks, language tuition, or horse riding - see hotels for further information. However, we have found that non-participating friends/partners are very happy with the facilities our venues have to offer. The cost of these activities is not included in the price.

All of our programmes are designed to get the best from each venue and tutor so that you have the best experience possible on your painting or cooking in Italy holiday - see “PROGRAMMES FOR 2012” on the buttons above.

All hotels are 3 or 4 star and have superb facilities - see “HOTELS AND LOCATIONS” on the buttons above.

We offer experienced teaching by successful artists in drawing and painting (all media). Tuition is tailored to all levels of experience - see “TUTORS” on the buttons above.

All excursions are included in the price quoted - see “EXCURSIONS” on the buttons above.
