Retreats
Learn to cook cuisine from across the Mediterranean, visit local artisan producers and relax in a spectacular Catalan farmhouse estate.
We will explore the rugged coast line, dip into the turquoise sea and dine the local way; outside around a large table, over many courses, with many bottles of interesting wines and through many stories, most of them probably about food!
We look forward to sharing the Mediterranean way of life with you!
Our retreats are currently only conducted in English.

Whatwillycook x MFJ
2026
LOCATION TBC
In 2025 MFJ and Whatwillycook collaborated on one of the most exciting adventures of the century. We cooked, we swam, we foraged, we ate a lot of sandwiches, and even more ham, and we drunk a lot of wine and philosophised about the meaning of life. We had such a lovely time together, and the feedback from all of our guests was so overwhelmingly positive, that we have decided that we have to do another trip together in 2026. Details to be announced, but if you would like to be the first to find out about tickets, and to get yourself an earlybird discount, then register your interest below!
