Two hours from London, on England’s south coast, Bournemouth is one of the country’s most attractive holiday resorts. Its beauty and extensive facilities have made it an important centre for tourism, education and business, ideal for holiday-makers and the many thousands of university and college students who live here. It’s a town of wonderful parks and flowers but is perhaps best known for its stunning coastline, which provides seven glorious miles of beach and safe sea swimming. There’s also plenty to do away from the beach and, with such a high student population, it comes as no surprise that Bournemouth boasts over 30 nightclubs and some 200 restaurants and cafés.
Cactus offers a variety of English courses in Bournemouth, including Academic Year and English Exam Preparation courses. Outside class you can join in activities organised by the school with the friends you make in class. Most students choose accommodation in local homestays which offers complete immersion in the English language and culture.
