Exmouth

Exmouth is a safe and beautiful seaside resort with one of Devon‘s most popular sandy beaches. Enjoying the benefits of the Gulf Stream Exmouth has a very mild climate which makes it an ideal place for an English language programme for parents and children. Exmouth attracts a lot of families from Britain and abroad during the summer months! There are plenty of shops, cafés, bars and restaurants in and around the town centre.
Exmouth is situated directly at the mouth of the River Exe 15 km away from historic Exeter. The town is the ideal place to discover the Jurassic Coast, Torquay and the English Riviera, Dartmoor and many other sights.
Your child or your children will participate in our junior summer course with lessons in the morning and activities in the afternoon. You attend an English language course for adults in the morning and you can either spend the rest of the day as a family or you can take the opportunity to have some time without your children. As the programme is very flexible and can be designed to your wishes, you can make up your mind on a daily basis.
