Exquisite food

Beautiful food and wine are central to the Purple Summer experience. What could be better to pair with your idyllic summer holiday than delicious, fresh food  prepared by a private, professional chef? And what could be more exquisite than a glass of champagne in the sunshine whilst lounging besides your pool?

Our professional chefs are extremely capable and hugely passionate about the food that they create. Each with their own unique flair, they prepare quality dishes that will remain in your memory long after they’ve been devoured. Delivered with spectacular service in a home-from-home environment, it is our gourmet cuisine that you will savour during your sun-drenched days and warm summer evenings.

“The food was stunning from start to finish – some of the best meals we have ever eaten.”

Delicious wines

In our Purple Summer villas, we want you to enjoy the wines that we serve as much as the food. After much careful research, we have chosen a delicious red and white wine from the area, as well as a second lovely red and white from a little further afield in the host country. And of course, summer wouldn’t be summer without copious amounts of rosé wine; our house rosé is ‘M de Minuty’, a Provençal wine with crisp and round flavour, wonderful to share with friends, and we have selected a delicious Prosecco too, for those who enjoy bubbles (or the occasional Aperol Spritz!).

During dinner, you will be served – at the chef’s discretion – a selection of wines from our cellar. Our house wines, beer, Prosecco and a selection of spirits are freely available throughout the day and, as a Purple Summer holiday wouldn’t be complete without champagne, our house champagnes Taittinger and Veuve Clicquot are unlimited and available for you to drink whenever you wish.
