Fully Immersive Junior Summer programmes are also available, full-board accommodation and activity plans included in the price.

The school offers a wide range of activities via an expansive cultural programme, including Spanish cooking, exploring the natural surrounding by bicycle, bodega tours, live flamenco and more! Full day trips to Tarifa, Bolonia and Cadiz are favourites amongst students, where authentic tapas and beautiful beaches are never far away!

Other comments I wanted to share the apartment with a flat mate though, I stayed in a single room and I felt lonely after school.

I recommend you to inform of your requests (even a small concerns) in advance.
