Eurowings offers direct Düsseldorf – Newquay flights

starting from 11th May and last flights on 7th September 2024

Newquay is the only airport in Cornwall with limited international connections.

Prices start at £99.99 – but they do go up as demand increases, so decide early!

​

Fly with an airline of your choice to Heathrow or Gatwick

However, fly into London and enjoy the train journey – from Plymouth the train travels along the coast and it is really pretty so you see more of the country.

You do not have to get into London to Paddington station - you can take the Trainlink bus to Reading station and then the Great Western Railway to Penzance

The train journey from Reading to St Erth (you get off one stop before the final stop) takes 5 hours but is okay as the seats are comfortable and you get trolley service.

​

Alternatively, fly with an airline of your choice to Gatwick, then fly from Gatwick to Newquay

Newquay is our only airport in Cornwall and is about an hour's drive from Englishplus. There are currently 2 flights per day Gatwick/Newquay - but make sure you are connecting without any problem. 

​

Coming by car? We have parking for one car outside Englishplus.

​

Courses run from Monday to Friday (Saturday to Saturday in a Homestay)

or as and when booked by you and

after prior agreement over the telephone between me and you

Tell me what you would like to achieve, where you think your weaknesses lie, and whether you want to learn through conversation or need some ‘sit-down’ grammar lessons as well.
