Many of these week long courses are melodeon; some involve eg Bruno le Tron. Likely to be GC based and in Solfage, totally in French. Fairly trad stuff

Chalap is a hamlet of about 20 houses on a hill above Genolhac (not easy to find first time)! It's spacious terrace has fabulous views of the valley. Basically a week long party for 15-25 of you with 'school' during the day. Dorm accommodation upstairs, but non-French often stay otherwise - last year I and a German fella had rooms in a basic gîte 200m up the road. I came back via the nearby Tarn Gorge - fantastic! - but so is the Rhône route ;) François has a network of excellent cook who take turns: Chalap food is always superb.

Genolhac's station connects to Nîmes, and Paris!!  TGV London-Nîmes  - I guess 5+ hours
