Riversdown House

Busy professionals who need a personalised training programme to improve their presentation skills, or to develop their powers of persuasion and negotiation in English, now have a course that will solve their problems. Clients are met by private car at the airport and begin their total immersion in English by being driven to Riversdown House, which will be their hotel and training centre for the length of their stay. Every programme is individually designed with the number of daily one-to-one training sessions, and the content, decided by the client according to his or her specific needs.
All participants have their own private rooms and training rooms, fully equipped with the latest comforts and technology. Riversdown is a 14th century manor house in the heart of the Hampshire countryside, where trainers and students enjoy excellent international cuisine in superbly English surroundings. The cross-cultural experience and conversations are an additional advantage for those doing business internationally, giving them an insight into other cultures and lifestyles. This is backed by more formal lessons in the classroom.
Following the “mens sana in corpore sano” philosophy, Riversdown has its own 9-hole PGA golf course, swimming pool, tennis courts, gym, sauna and bicycles for clients to use in their free time.
