The French Riviera, Théoule-sur-Mer, Cannes

Le Mas des Oliviers is a luxury villa in Provence overlooking the Mediterranean on the Côte d'Azur, French Riviera. The breathtaking views towards the Bay of Cannes, Les Iles de Lérin's and Cap d'Antibes help to make your cooking vacation one you'll never forget. Situated just fifteen minutes from the glamour of Cannes, yet only ten minutes away from the wonderful walks along the wild red cliffs of the Esterel, the villa offers you the sophistication and excitement of the Riviera in a tranquil and relaxed environment – perfect for the ultimate culinary holiday!

Some of the finest chefs of France have come from this region, and the kitchens of Provence are legendary the world over. Our teaching chef has a passion for regional produce. The market stalls of this sun-drenched area of Provence offer some of the finest selections of seasonal fruit and vegetables in the Mediterranean. This is the rich palate and foundation for our cooking courses.

Théoule-sur-Mer, known as ‘the writers' village’, has been a source of inspiration and creativity for countless artists, writers and chefs. A combination of hands-on cooking classes and demonstrations held in our own well-equipped kitchen will give you the opportunity to create your own culinary masterpieces during your cookery holiday and when you return home.
