Enrol on the English courses at Torquay and enjoy the best climate the UK has to offer! The weather is often quite pleasant in the summer so remember to bring your flip-flops and swimwear! The average summer temperatures are around the mid 20Cs, so you can enjoy the summer sun while you are having a picnic on one of Torquay’s many beaches. In winter the temperature drops a bit, but we don't often have freezing conditions; it's easy to keep warm by drinking hot chocolate in the many street cafes or by enjoying a pint next to a roaring fire in a traditional English pub!
