S SCHUT, Sudbury, UK - Apr 2013
Everyone were lovely..my only problem was that my husband and I were interested in learning how to make traditional pizza baked in brick oven...which we discovered was a separate day course!! Thus we were a little disappointed as it was made clear during time of booking. thanks Mrs Schut
Reply from Supplier: Sorry you didn't realise this about the pizza course. This course is based on making pizza in a conventional oven. There is also a 1 day pizza making course in a wood fired oven that we offer which you can add on if you wish. Please see our website for this course in Sorrento.

Chef was very knowledgable and helpful. Staff were also really friendly and welcoming. Overall a great break which I have already recommended to friends!

We had a great time on the cookery course, and (most) of the family are lovely and very accomodating. However, we were put in the hotel, not the B&B as described on the GoLearnTo website, which is far from Sorrento town centre (approximately a €20 cab ride or 20 minute up-hill walk to train station, then a twice per hour train), so really not very practical. We ended spending a lot on taxis as there is nothing to do in the village where the hotel is.
Reply from Supplier: We are very sorry that your post booking experience didn’t fully meet your expectations; the supplier changed location post booking, though we did contact all guests to notify them of the change. Please rest assured that the course content has now been amended on our website and that the change in location of the cookery school was made with the customers' best interest at heart. Hotel Soleluna is a lovely place to stay with a great atmosphere, a lovely terrace where you can sit outside and relax after your cookery lessons and enjoy the food you have prepared. The rooms are also a lot prettier, and the separate cookery school/kitchen for lessons is brand new.

The course wasn't exactly what we had expected, but the teacher was friendly, knowledgeable and fun. Unfortunately the regular teacher was on holidays during our stay, which was a bit disappointing. The accommodation was nice and the staff were friendly and helpful
Reply from Supplier: Hi, We're pleased you enjoyed your course. Just to explain Chef Palmira is the head chef at the school now and has been cooking with guests there for over 8 years, we're pleased you had a good time and hope to see you again!

The accommodation was good, staff were friendly, but the course was way overpriced. 3 hour course for over £100 per person, is mad, especially as we did'nt really cook, it was more of a rushed demonstration of the chefs and their students cooking dinner!

I do not work in the food industry so everything that I learned and observed at the Pizza, Pasta and Gelato holiday was good and I found it very useful for cooking I will do at my home in Australia. I would certainly recommend this to other people.

The course and place was very nice, very authentic and the staff were very welcoming and I really enjoyed it. Value for money, I feel it was a bit expensive for what it is, but apart from that, I had a wonderful time.

I have a good knowledge of general cooking anyway so was looking for some authentic insight into pizza and pasta. I loved the unfancy , artisan honest, approach and feel to the whole school. To say its a school gives the wrong idea. Its like a family business and so friendly. i will be back!!
