The experience
We are an international college with students from many different countries, situated in north east England. Our college is in a beautiful rural area, in the middle of 30 acres of park and gardens, also inhabited by our local wildlife (deer, rabbits, foxes..) and we have a big walled garden where we grow organic vegetables and potatoes .
You are welcome to join us for 3-4 weeks or up to 3 months.
