From classroom to adventures
Our quality English language and adventure courses give students the opportunity to improve their language skills in a vibrant and exciting environment.

International students choosing our standard English as a Foreign Language (EFL) programme will receive tuition in classes of up to 15 students, alongside a fun, challenging and exhilarating activity programme.
The focus is on developing confidence in the English language with particular emphasis on speaking and listening. Students gain a certificate of English language and a course report on the progress they have made during their time with us. Outside of the summer months, this programme can be tailored to your needs with additional excursions.

The maximum number of participants is 15 per activity group. Our risk assessments are written to this number. In special circumstances, such as groups with complex SEN needs, we may be able to operate smaller groups, these will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis.
We are happy to take requests for specific accommodation blocks but we cannot offer any guarantees (unless specifically confirmed at time of booking), especially in peak periods. Your group may be sharing an accommodation block with other groups but we will endeavour to keep groups on separate floors and corridors.
A full list of activities can be found here and can be filtered by centre and activity type.
All activities and meals are included in the cost of the trip, however guests may wish to purchase snacks and souvenirs from the shop. We would recommend bringing spending money of £10.
