What our travellers are saying...

Absolutely excellent experience from the accommodation to the classes and everything in between! Well organised! I will definitely be booking again!!

D Kearns

All the staff were friendly and I was tutored by Pedro Martin who was great fun and a superb teacher. He can speak multiple languages well and was fluent in English. He had good banter but was very serious about what he was teaching and has given me the blueprint to expand my playing to new levels.

M Wright

Second time I have done this flamenco guitar course and I loved it! Great teacher and staff and fellow students!
