Back by popular demand, we’re happy to announce that this year we will once again have Weekend Experience Gift Certificates, available to buy as presents. Buy yourself or someone you love, a weekend at La Bruguera, and then cash it in when you’re ready to travel (depending on availability).

Your weekend experience includes:

  • 2 nights in a double room at La Bruguera
  • 2 or 3 homegrown, homemade, vegetarian (or vegan) meals a day (we say 2 or 3 in case you want to enjoy one of the great restaurants in the nearby villages) 
  • The option of attending one of our masterclasses (which vary by weekend)

Masterclasses
We’ve been working hard on a new programme of ecologically-minded workshops and classes to offer our guests, in an effort to deepen our positive impact.  These hands-on 1 to 2 hour sessions will give you everything you need to know to apply these techniques successfully when you return home.

Masterclasses which will feature on the calendar, so far, in 2022 are as follows:

Fermentation: Learn the ancient art of making your harvest last longer, by assembling some jars of deliciousness to take home, with lacto-fermentation. Kimchi:  learn the fundamentals of this classic Korean homemade essential.

Kombucha: Learn the basics of making Kombucha, and some tricks to make it taste great! Taste a range of ours at the same time, too.

Fresh Pasta: Get floury in the kitchen learning how to make two types of pasta – one filled, one noodle, with Giulia, from Trafficanti di Pasta (when available). 

Vegan Chorizo: how to make this Spanish classic, at home, fully vegan!  We’ll take you through the steps, hands-on in the kitchen, and then you can take your creation home, stuff your fresh pasta with it, or put it on a pizza here for dinner!

Introduction to Permaculture: Ever wondered what Permaculture is?  This illustrated lecture will take you through this regenerative design system devised to help you design your home or homestead according to nature’s principles, by examining the ethics and design principles which underpin this regenerative design system. 

Renewable-Energy home: Curious about what you can achieve only using renewable energy in your house? In this session we will do an illustrated presentation and guided, hands-on tour, during which we will show you all the technology installed at La Bruguera, which allow us to run on 100% renewable energy: Solar PV panels, Solar Thermal Panels, Heat Pumps, a Biomass Boiler, Lithium Ion Batteries and an Inertia Tank, as well as a few other clever gadgets. 

Natural Wine-tasting: Learn about Natural Wines, and try some of the best Catalunya and the Languedoc / Catalogne du Nord region of France have to offer, guided by Rafa Camps of LaNatural.wine 

Catalan Wine-tasting: Learn all about the wine regions of Catalonia, the tasting notes of the various varietals here, and of course, enjoy the wines live! Presented and guided by Maria del Mar, our experienced enologist. (Note – this masterclass can entail a supplementary cost for the wines, depending on grade of wines, and the number of attendees. Get in touch to discuss.)
