Description

Our school Granada Option 1 could not be better located, lying in the 'Albaicin', the old Moorish heart of the city, with its beautiful white washed streets and spectacular views of the Alhambra, the old Arabic palace, towering over Granada.

The school is in a beautiful historic building, with orange trees filling its shady gardens and ivy growing over the walls. The school has 8 well-equipped classrooms, a student cafeteria, outside patios and extensive private gardens for students to use at break time.

Our school is 40 minutes from the beach and 30 minutes to the 1st ski station on the snow-capped peaks of the Sierra Nevada, the highest mountains in mainland Spain and some of the best skiing in Europe.
