Mas de l'Hermitage Cooking Vacation in Provence.
This one looks good because it is near the ocean, has pleasant accomodations and plenty of cooking. A bit too much touring around for my taste, but sounds relaxed.
In your first day, you’ll be picked up from Nice, Marseille or Toulon airports, or from our local high speed "TGV" Train station: "Les Arcs Draguignan". Arrival at the Mas mid-afternoon, with time to settle in to your accommodation and get to know your surroundings. 7:00 aperitif and 8:00 dinner. At 8:30 breakfast, then visit to the market at le Muy, shopping for fresh ingredients for dinner, late lunch in le Muy, 5:30 cooking class, aperitif and 8:00 dinner.
