Cygnet Cloudbreak Farm

Soups and stews are a wonderful addition to any culinary repertoire. Italian soups are not only healthy and full of flavour but there is that extra something special that Italians do so well! This class will include traditional minestrone, risotto, greens with pork, beef spezzatino (like a stew) and zuppa di lenticchie (a soup make of lentils).

At Wattle Grove, in the beautiful Huon Valley in Tasmania, you will find a cute little cooking school called The Farmhouse Kitchen, providing classes for lovers of Italian food. The cooking school will take you on a culinary journey of the region of Puglia in southern Italy with truly authentic Mediterranean dishes. At the Farmhouse Kitchen, we give people the feeling of being part of an Italian family, having fun both preparing and eating fabulous food. Come and tantalise your taste buds with a day to remember.

Always wishing you were elsewhere? Well, now you can be. Elsewhere Vineyard is a family-owned vineyard specialising in cool-climate Pinot Noir, Rosé, Chardonnay, Riesling and the less common Gewürztraminer. Just a short drive from the picturesque town of Cygnet Elsewhere is situated in Glaziers Bay, overlooking the stunning Huon River in southern Tasmania. Elsewhere is not just a vineyard, it is also a working farm with an assortment of friendly animals including sheep, chickens and cows, providing an interesting distraction for those looking for more than just wine tasting. At the very relaxed cellar door, Owen will take you through the wines available for sampling, as well as provide some history about the vineyard, explain how the wine is grown, and what life is like owning a vineyard and farm. So whether it’s sampling superb Pinot or just relaxing and taking in the view. Be sure to come and visit this tranquil part of the beautiful Huon Valley.
