8 Bedroom Farmhouse Carcassonne - THE FRENCH HOUSE PARTY COOKING COURSES Reviews

Third visit and you can't help wondering if a place will be same or not really as good as you remember. French House Party, hosted by Moira with help this year from brilliant Lina, continues to deliver fabulous food and superb comfort in its stylish base amid the sunflower fields near the Canal du Midi. I was in the same room as before (Aubergine) which had a few updates since last year, indicating that Moira doesn't just let things coast along. Trips out to a local restaurant and to Rennes Le Château were well chosen, and an individual trip organised to picturesque Narbonne. The pool still entices, as do the tennis courts and bicycles for those who find time. Creative writing tutor, Sarah, inspires with a sense of adventure and is an ace antidote to writers' block. I was surprised at how much I got written in bursts between food, outings, canal walks and the pool. Thanks to an inspirational setting, a dollop of cosseting, and the company of fellow writers. Would I go again? Yes please!
