"A stone manor house in Normandy used as a base for culinary vacations, it pairs accommodations with chef-led cooking classes and curated local experiences. Programs organized through a London-based tour operator can include market visits, winery and fromage tours, or trips to nearby fishing ports, and are configurable for small groups or even two travelers. Lengths and prices vary by package, from half-day experiences to week-long stays." - Peggy Knickerbocker, Stephanie Curtis
