Shoes Off for Summer

This summer, we invite you to kick off your shoes, step into nature, and rediscover the joy of speaking English — your way.

While much of Europe swelters in 35°C+ heat, Scotland stays calm, green, and breezy.

Our Summer 2025 language holidays are designed for learners who want something different from a package holiday, like Scandi-style summer escapes — with travellers choosing fresh air, forest walks, and cold-water dips over baking beaches.

But have you considered using that cool, calm environment to do something meaningful for yourself?

This July, join us in beautiful Perthshire for a real-world English holiday that blends confidence-building coaching with nature-led wellbeing.

No-Classroom Language Practice

Instead of melting onto a plastic chair in a classroom, you’ll walk, talk, cook, and connect — with people, place, and real-world English language.

Choose an English holiday in Scotland and stay with a friendly local homestay, explore woodlands and lochs, and take part in creative activities designed to get you speaking English comfortably and confidently.

And because we believe that feeling good in your body helps you feel good in a language, our holidays also include:

  • Forest walks and gentle hikes

  • Sauna sessions and wild swimming (optional, but encouraged!)

  • Time to rest and reset

  • Even things like fermentation workshops to support your health from within.

Our holidays are not just about learning English — they are about using it, in ways that feels good.

Useful Information

🧳 What to Bring

This isn’t a classroom course — it’s a full-body, full-hearted English adventure.

We recommend packing:

  • Strong walking shoes (you’ll want to explore the hills and trails!)

  • A camera or sketchbook (you’ll be inspired — trust us)

  • Sandals or water shoes (there are rivers to paddle in!)

  • Swim stuff, we have pools, lochs and rivers…
  • A waterproof jacket (it’s Scotland!)

What you don’t need to bring?
The weight of your old English hang-ups.
You can leave those behind — or better yet, let them go here. (We’ll help!)
