Dream Cooking holiday on Amalfi Coast

Accommodation and cooking classes will be at "La Primavera" in Massa Lubrense. Both the town and hotel are among hidden jewels of the coast.

Massa being little known has avoided tourist overcrowding which affects much of the rest of the area. However, it and the nearby towns of S Agata and Marina del Cantone sport some of the very best restaurants.

La Primavera, a family run restaurant since the 1950s was later expanded to offer accommodation. All rooms have en-suite bathrooms and either balcony or patio.

Cooking classes will be given by Anna, the family matriarch and her Chef Gennaro.
