French language courses & French cooking courses for adults at all language levels.

Here at École des Trois Ponts in France (Three Bridges School) we welcome individuals, couples, business people, families and groups who want to study the French language, French cooking or a combination of the two.

We have an extensive range of week-long courses, including immersion French courses, French and cooking, wine, cheese, pastry, lifestyle and chocolate courses. All are conducted by professional, native teachers in a relaxed atmosphere. Classes are available on a one-to-one basis or in groups of up to 6.

Accommodation, classes and meals are all provided on-site and are included in the weekly rate. Guests are accommodated in one of nine newly constructed double rooms, each with its own private bathroom.

We're based in south-east France at Villa Beaulieu in Grand Roanne, France near the Loire River. The famous Burgundy and Beaujolais wine areas are close by, as is Lyon, the gastronomic capital of France.

Meals include regional produce and are informal, sociable affairs. They are taken with teachers and fellow students and are conducted in French. Living and studying on-site allows our guests to focus and advance quickly. This successful technique of immersion proves itself week after week after week. It’s time you put it to the test!
