  My husband and I stayed here approximately 3 years ago. I am just now writing a review because I really spent those years trying to forget the experience. We were not greeted with warmth whatsoever and really felt unwelcomed and unwanted. I can’t possibly write a review expressing just how much I would never ever ever go back there again and I just how much I don’t recommend it to anyone. Consider my star below zero and into the negatives.

  My husband and I visited Auberge for our anniversary in August and had such a wonderful stay there. It was so relaxing and quiet on the grounds. We were fed a delicious breakfast each morning and dessert at night. The cooking class was so much fun and we made a tasty meal that we enjoyed later that evening. Go, you won't be dissapointed! :)

  this was one of the weirdest experiences of my life, we get there and it is a house I was expecting something like a condo or hotel stay. we could hear everything that went on in the house. the place was so old and beat up (it needs to be updated) we loved the Chef he was amazing and the cooking class was good I thought. I didn't like how we only learn to do one thing. I would have liked to do them all to gain some experience. the owner was kind of uptight and rude. we did not want wine, she made us feel like we had to have it and was very condescending about it. I don't think I would ever pay for this again. maybe a cooking class on a good deal but would never stay there.

  we only used the cooking school option, via Amazon Local. Interesting home, but the cooking school was a bit disorganized and I didn't really learn anything. We were just given recipes and told to go ahead--my job was shredding carrots in a faulty food processor, then squeezing lemon juice on them. Ok, I could stay home and do this? All the dishes were very basic. But we did enjoy a nice meal outside (it's BYOB, BTW). If you've never cooked before, this might be more valuable and interesting.

  My mother and I went out for a class. Our only mistake was not staying over. I recommend staying at least 1 night and soaking up the vacation atmosphere.
  
  The instructor was so encouraging. The surroundings were very laid back cottage on some wooded property. The interior although active with cuisine and wine was still relaxing. We had a great time and the food was delicious!

  My daughter and I attended a French cooking class from the Breakfast / Brunch Series: Sept. 9, 2012
  Shirred Eggs
  Peaches Cardinal
  Poached peaches or pears with pureed raspberries, whipped cream and toasted almonds
  
  It was very "hands-on", with expert guidance and very "usable" recipes. The results were served to the class members by staff following the lesson.
  
  Both of us have repeated all three recipes in our own kitchens. The "shirred eggs" have become a favorite in our home, and is prepared regularly - never the same way twice! Such a fun and forgiving recipe - perfect for experimenting with whatever is in the garden and frig!
  
  Overall an excellent experience!
