All of this in a relaxed but effective environment.
Customised Programme
This programme consists of 20 hours per week of customised English training at The Pyramid Group’s UK office and 5 afternoons per week at Truro golf course. Apart from 5 rounds of golf, 2 individual training sessions with the club professional are included.

Truro
The only city in Cornwall, although Bodmin is still nominally the county town. Truro’s most striking feature is the cathedral, with its green spire and gothic appearance. Built at the turn of the century it dominates the Truro skyline with its 250 foot high towers and has some interesting Victorian stained glass windows. The south aisle of the cathedral is what remains of St Mary’s Church, said to be one of the finest pieces of medieval architecture in Cornwall. Its decorative style contrasts with the simplicity of the new part of the cathedral.
The city’s heritage is as a market town and port dating back over 800 years, booming during the tin mining era. Sat at the head of a navigable stretch of the River Fal Truro was within easy reach of the sea but more protected than Falmouth downstream.
