Adventure Camp Cornwall & London: English holiday camp with sports, language, beach and London highlights
Our Adventure Camp Cornwall & London is the perfect summer camp for anyone who loves adventure, community, language and real moments of discovery. And best of all, your experience begins before you even arrive at camp. We start with a special journey – the night train from London Paddington to Cornwall. As the train rolls through the darkness towards the coast, the first friendships often form, conversations become more relaxed, and anticipation for the days ahead grows with every passing kilometer.
In Cornwall, you can expect a camp that combines action, nature, and English learning in a completely natural way. Your days start with morning sports activities and interactive English language courses and continue with a variety of afternoon sessions – always accompanied by a strong team spirit and an international community. On joint excursions to the beaches of Cornwall, you can swim, surf, relax, and use English in real everyday situations.
The weekend brings a real highlight: a hike through the impressive landscape of Cornwall with cliffs, panoramic views, and pure nature.
After nine days full of adventure, the journey continues to London. There you will experience three incredible days – full of sightseeing, shopping and exploring.
The camp offers a perfect mixture of nature, adventure, teamwork and exploring a new City – one unforgettable summer!

Your first big block of activities starts in the morning.
You decide for yourself how you want to organize your everyday camp life: Either you immerse yourself in your chosen profile – in our sports area with surfing or in the English language course (with TOEFL preparation on request) – or you choose flexibly from the basic module and put together a new program of exciting sports, creative and outdoor activities every day.

We have included a sample schedule of our camp in Cornwall & London in the slide so you can see for yourself how varied and exciting your everyday camp life will be.
English Classic – Learning by Living
Our English Classic courses take place in small, manageable groups – always led by trained language teachers who will meet you where you are. At the beginning, you will take a short level check so that you can learn at exactly your level. Then you'll get started right away: lots of speaking, games, interactive activities, and real-life situations.
In a total of 30 lessons, you'll consolidate and expand your vocabulary, grammar, and pronunciation – we don’t teach in the typical school atmosphere, but with fun, movement, and practicing real conversations. The language automatically becomes part of your everyday camp life. In addition, there is a profile-specific activity in London that shows you how what you have learned feels like in real life. This will make you more confident, courageous, and really excited about learning English!
English TOEFL® – the language certificate for the next level
If you want more than our English Classic course, the two-week TOEFL® course is just right for you. It is the perfect upgrade and can only be booked in combination with the Classic course. Building on the practical learning there, you will prepare specifically for the internationally recognized language test – including a certificate according to the Common European Framework of Reference (CEFR). There's no such thing as failing: your result simply shows you transparently where you currently stand in terms of language skills.
In addition to the regular units, you will receive 10 extra hours of intensive preparation focusing on grammar, reading, and listening comprehension, as well as a complete test simulation. This means you can go into the exam feeling calm, confident and well prepared.
Surfing in Cornwall
Our surf course in Cornwall welcomes both beginners and advanced surfers. Whether you want to catch your very first wave or consolidate your existing techniques, you'll find the right introduction here. Cornwall's wide beaches and consistent waves offer ideal conditions and plenty of space to practice at your own pace.
Over four mornings, our certified surf coaches will guide you through the most important basics and advanced techniques. You'll learn how to get into the water safely, maintain your balance, and improve step by step. Small groups ensure that everyone gets enough attention and individual tips.
The training is adapted to the conditions on site and your levels – sometimes calmer, sometimes a little more dynamic, always with the aim of making you feel more confident and secure on the board. And of course, everything takes place in English, embedded in an open, international group.
Fishing course
If you want to try sea fishing or improve your skills, our fishing course is just right for you. Cornwall offers the perfect backdrop for this—impressive coastlines, fresh sea air, and plenty of space to try it out. Over four mornings, you will learn the basics and techniques of ocean fishing in a small group, accompanied by experienced team members who will tailor the course to your level and interests. You don't need a license to fish in the sea.
Depending on the weather, experience, and group dynamics, we will test different conditions on the water and work together to find suitable spots along the coast. This way, you will experience how versatile sea fishing can be – relaxed, focused, sometimes challenging, but always rewarding.
The fishing course thrives on togetherness: learning and celebrating every little success.

Well looked after in every way!
Our experienced teamers are there for you around the clock – always fun, cheerful, and ready to listen. Each of you will have a designated teamer who is always available and ready to help with any questions, big or small. That way, you always know who to turn to.
The best part? Our teamers come from all over the world and bring real camp spirit with them. That's why we mostly speak English at camp – naturally and without pressure. This makes it easy for you to immerse yourself in the language: during sports, around the campfire, or simply in conversation with new friends.
Our staff-to-camper ratio is between 1:7 and 1:10, so every camper receives individual attention and support. All team members are specially trained for our camps, have a current certificate of good conduct, and work according to our safety concept. This means you are completely safe and well looked after – and can concentrate fully on having fun, enjoying adventures, and making new friends.
What's more, our trips offer much more than just fun and action. You'll also strengthen important life skills: you'll become more independent, learn to take responsibility, and feel more confident in new situations. Living together in an international group will help you develop social openness, empathy, and an awareness of different cultures. You'll also make friends from all over the world, who will often remain friends long after the summer is over. And because we spend so much time outdoors, you will develop a natural connection to nature and a sense of how valuable and worth protecting it is.
