LOCATION
English Language Course in Cirencester
Cirencester: a charming rural town with Roman origins, perfect for your Study Holiday in England surrounded by greenery.
Cirencester is a delightful town in Gloucestershire, known as the capital of the Cotswolds. Rich in Roman history, it features cobbled streets, historic buildings and a truly English atmosphere. The centre is lively and welcoming, with markets, independent shops and cosy cafés. Cirencester combines old-world charm with a relaxed, modern lifestyle.
From here, you can easily reach some of England’s most interesting destinations such as Oxford and Bath, as well as London, which is less than two hours away by coach.
Our school, the Royal Agricultural University, strongly resembles the famous School of Magic from the Harry Potter books. In the past, King Charles often attended the university’s Graduation Ceremonies.
For over 40 years, we have been running language courses at this beautiful countryside college, designed to meet a wide range of needs—from primary school children to students in the first two years of high school.
