with venues in Truro & Falmouth, Language Tree is located in the centre of two of Cornwall's most important towns.
Firstly, the cathedral city of Truro, with all it independent shops, cafés and museum, it is a great location to explore the whole of Cornwall. Plus, we have a fantastic network of host families around the city so you can stay close to the school.
|
Then, we have our university campus in Falmouth, the university town of Cornwall. This important maritime town, has a beautiful town centre full of traditional pubs and arty shops. Falmouth University has become one of the UK's leading Art Universities, and its influence can be seen throughout the town centre and felt in the atmosphere in the streets.
Both these locations provide us a perfect base to explore the whole of Cornwall. Every week you will join our brilliant range of excursions and activities that will introduce you to the wonderful county of Cornwall. |
It is a county with a rich cultural history that is not well-known outside of the United Kingdom. This is one of the many reasons why it is the perfect place to come to for an English language course and study holiday.
As you travel around the region, you will see clues to its important past as one of the most important regions in the world for the mining of tin at the start of the industrial revolution. As well as mining, the coastal location of Cornwall has given it an important maritime history linked to exploration, fishing and pirates!. |
Much of this has been captured in TV series like Poldark and by famous writers such as Daphne du Maurier and Rosamund Pilcher.
While tin mining and piracy may have disappeared into history and legend, the stories and relics are alive and well and will be brought to life during your time studying with us at Language Tree. The modern county of Cornwall is an exciting and vibrant county with a huge variety of great things to do. Have a look on our Visit Cornwall page or our Social Activities & Excursions page to get an idea of all the different things you will get to do on our courses. |
