You can now, as part of your holiday, enjoy a cooking course at the fantastic il Maniero restaurant and art club, just 10 minutes from Caserma Carina Country House. You will enjoy a warm and friendly welcome from academy chef Guida Stacchietti and Marco Ferranti, who will create regional and traditional Italian dishes using fresh, local produce from this rural and unspoilt area of Italy.

You will be taught how to cook a whole variety of local cuisine including homemade pasta, traditional meat dishes and wonderful Italian desserts just to mention a few. Guida will also guide you through the art of food presentation.

Part owner Daniele Cristallini is an accomplished artist and you will be surrounded by works of art and antiques which can be purchased should you fall in love with a particular item.

Staying in luxury self catering apartments, complete with cooking facilities, you will have plenty of spare time to visit the many local markets and try out your newly taught skills. For fish lovers we have now arranged for a local supplier to visit every Wednesday morning where you can purchase freshly caught fish on your own doorstep.   

The cost of the course is £280.00 per person and includes 3 morning courses (9.30 am - 1.00 pm).  Each day you will be given the option of either eating your mornings hard work at the restaurant, or depending on numbers, Guida will happily pack you up with a goodies bag to enjoy back at Caserma Carina. You will also be presented with an information pack which will include written instructions for all recipes taught on the course.

During 2007 guests enjoyed evening meals at Il Maniero where they sampled many Italian local and national dishes.  We are able to arrange evening meals which will include delicious anti pasta, pasta, meat, local vegetables, dolce, wine and water for a total price of €30 (euros) per person. Although it is helpful to book your evening meal in advance, payment is made directly with the restaurant during your stay.
