The Mulberry School of English

The Mulberry School of English is a quality British Council accredited boutique school located in the picturesque, vibrant market town of Llangollen, North Wales. We offer a wide range of Adult year-round English language courses for professional, academic and leisure purposes plus Adventure English, Club 50 and Culture and Leisure language holidays. We also have expertise in providing industry specific Internship and Teacher Training programmes plus all of the partner and student services expected from a first class education provider.

Only ten miles from the English border and 45 minutes from the cities of Manchester and Liverpool, Llangollen is an authentically British town where students can still immerse themselves in an English speaking world, This is true both in the classroom, around the town and in our local Host Families. Llangollen is home to many world-famous arts events such as the International Eisteddfod and Fringe Festivals and is surrounded by historic castles, UNESCO World Heritage sites, steam railways and winding canals. It is also close to the spectacular Snowdonia National Park and Dee Valley and is known as one of the UK’s leading outdoor pursuit centres. The town and region have been welcoming visitors from around the globe for many years, all of whom marvel at the wealth of cultural, sporting and leisure activity opportunities on offer.

This combination of a town that has managed to retain its traditional British characteristics yet also has an international outlook provides our students with a unique study experience, unlike many of the more “homogenised” town or city destinations available throughout the UK.
