3 Day Mediterranean Food, Wine & Cooking Retreat in Wa, Australia

This three-day Mediterranean cooking retreat in Crooked Brook, Western Australia, is designed for food lovers who want to roll up their sleeves and master vibrant Spanish dishes in a relaxed, luxurious setting. Set deep in the Ferguson Valley, the retreat pairs upscale accommodation with hands-on culinary sessions. Guests learn to prepare authentic paella and a colourful spread of tapas, guided step by step so that every technique feels approachable and rewarding. All meals are included throughout the stay, giving participants the chance to savour the fruits of their labour alongside carefully matched wines. Long-table lunches take place in a rustic barn, creating a convivial atmosphere where strangers become friends over shared plates. The experience is built around the idea that impressive cooking does not need to be complicated. Each session focuses on dishes that are full of flavour, visually striking, and easy enough to recreate at home for family and friends. For those unable to commit to the full weekend, a single-day cooking class with a long-table lunch is also available. It offers a taste of the same hands-on instruction and communal dining in a more compact format. Whether you come for a day or stay for the full retreat, the focus remains the same: good food, good wine, and the joy of learning something genuinely useful in one of Western Australia's prettiest rural corners.
