5 days in an amazing place
5 days in an amazing place, meeting new people and friends. Gary and his wife are very kind, trying to do their best. I would recommend this type of holiday, especially for those people who love walking in the nature, discovering new places
Super speaking experience
I loved the experience! Garry and his wife are very nice and welcoming. Depending on the weather, we spent the first day walking around the Seven Sisters National Park, the second day in London and the third day visiting Oxford. We could choose together where to go, so the plan depends on the interests of the group you're travelling with.
I would highly recommend this experience, especially for those who wants to speak English in everyday life and visit the area.
A great experience abroad
Just completed experience and really enjoyable. It is an alternative way of practicing the English language outside the conventional patterns, school lessons and classic visits to major monuments. Instead, as suggested by the very name "Al fresco" you have the opportunity to get to know the area outdoor , in depth, by visiting the impressive beauty of some natural and little-known areas, in groups of a few adults from all parts of the world. Friendships and knowledge of each other's cultures are also expanded in this way. All excellently organized and managed by Garry Evans who, with lots of patience and great hospitality solves all practical problems that may arise and, succeeds in creating a positive and joyful atmosphere, as well as rekindling the adventurous spirit sometimes slumbered by normal daily life and accompanying his guests to beautiful natural places where it is possible to discover the true greatness of some natural British landscapes. Thank you Garry, and a big thank you also to Elena, for the hospitality received. I will certainly repeat the experience, perhaps in Scotland or Ireland .... why not?

Amazing experience!
We had the opportunity to be part of English al fresco and it was an amazing experience. We got to know people from different parts of the world, practise English and visit fantastic places in Scotland. Garry and Elena are great hosts, they made sure everyone felt comfortable and we had a really good time together! Elena is a great cook and she made delicious vegan meals for us! Also, we enjoyed playing board games after dinner! We had such a good time that we wanted to stay for more days 😊 It was amazing!!

Best time
I was sceptical at first, but it turned out to be a very fun way to practice my English language. We had the best time travelling and spending time with our new friends. Will do it again if possible.
Wonderful experience
This was a wonderful experience for my husband and me, one that we hope to repeat in the future. We visited a lot of beautiful places in England, practised our English, we made new friends and had loads of fun. Garry and Elena made us feel at home, and you cannot imagine how much we enjoyed our time together :). We are really glad that we found them.
