London course - The course was an awesome experience to meet new places, the culture and yet learn/practice English. My only complaint is that was few days haha and for shure I will go to Scotland as soon as possible

A lovely week! - I had a really nice time attending the course English al Fresco-London! I could practice my English through free conversation with native speakers and fellow students all day long while walking and exploring London, Oxford and New Forest. In the evening, we would have dinner together and play games or watch movies. A totally immersive experience and a chance to get to know other cultures as well. Totally worth-it!

Just amazing 🤩 - I had an amazing time learning English in London. The teachers—Liam, Sally, and Simon—were really friendly and always ready to help. The course was well-organized, with a mix of English lessons and fun activities every day. The house was comfortable and spacious. I totally recommend it 100%!

Great experience! - Really nice experience! An alternative way to study English, visit new places and meet people of other nationalities! Staff very helpful and patient! I did the London course and I'd like to do the Edimburgh course too.

AMAZING - I'm right back from the London course, already thinking of the next trip with English Al Fresco. Indeed it was a great experience. I travelled on my own, since I had some free days and my husband, instead, had to work. This was the best choice ever, a break from everyday stressful routine and a re-charge of positive energy. The hosts were so nice, always available to talk and help us, thus making us feel at home. The house was clean and confortable.Everything was perfectly arranged: plenty of good food, all excursions were safe, accessible to everyone (I'm not a sports woman ;-) . Nothing was missing, even towels were provided. The newly formed group was fantastic, I was the only Italian, in a very relaxed atmosphere. We made friends instantly and got along so well, we spoke English all the time and had lots of fun. So, if you want a full immersion into English, while being in contact with nature or sightseeing instead of "formal" classes, this is the right experience, mostly based on oral skills development, listening and speaking, as well as on learning new vocabulary and idioms. Among the excursions I particularly liked the New Forest one, which I would never have done, had I been on my own. London and Oxford were also very interesting! Liam, Sally and Rae were great guides and Garry organized everything perfectly. Thank you guys, keep up the good work! Claudia

A stay to do abolument! - Plus: The London House hotel in the Kesington area had typical London architecture so very nice in a busy area with restaurants, well attended, not far from 2 underground stations and a bus line. All of London is nice with different neighbourhoods accessible by transport with a good atmosphere and without insecurity so well with children and in the evening Less: Small bedroom and bathroom, toilet in bathroom Let's close off little ones and people upstairs took the hundred steps every night until 2:00 am!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Breakfast in the basement in a small room like a canteen, restricted food and even something throughout the stay so we get tired It is a stay that is expensive because EVERYTHING is expensive = Transport, accommodation, food, restaurant (+15% more with the service), excursions...... Very nice and free museums. Free Lake Strret Tunnel SOHO, Cove,nt Garden? chinatown, Picadilly... next door nice and free Beautiful parks Candem Town fleas really great! (Amy Winehouse neighborhood) Take a picture at Abbey Road of the Beatles' famous cover Take good sneakers because you have to walk a lot!

Not what expected - Uncomfortable house, very uncomfortable beds and nowhere else to sit comfortably. The first day very unprepared, without any knowledge activity of the group. A lot of Spanish and in general the attendees had little level. The guides attentive and friendly but without group techniques. I expected more.
