FOODIE HOLIDAY
Join Melusine’s residential holiday and enjoy a luxury food-filled experience.
Every day we will cook together and create delicious Mediterranean dishes using beautiful local, fresh, seasonal produce.
We will take a canal boat ride, visit local markets, meet with producers, visit olive groves and learn how olive oil is produced, spend an afternoon touring a vineyard with wine tasting. It really is the perfect holiday for foodies.
There will also be time to relax, enjoy the swimming pool, explore the local area, take a walk along the canal and even head to the beach.
