The BELS Gozo Language School is unique for its location in the rural Gozitan village of Kerċem. Gozo has retained its rustic charm and remains mostly unspoilt. In a short stroll around the area you enjoy sights of the local agriculture scene, narrow alleys with rubble walls, traditional houses and longstanding chapels.
The school is surrounded by farmland, yet it’s only a short walk away from the village square where one can find all the daily necessities. You’ll soon realise that everything in Gozo is near. The island’s size, together with its safety and slower pace of life make it a desirable locale for students who wish to escape a hectic lifestyle. You can focus on your English course in Gozo without any disruptions.
In the evenings you can walk down to the Kerċem square or to the neighbouring village of Għarb. Here you can find a relaxing, lively atmosphere to mingle with some locals over a nice meal or a drink or two. It’s also easy to walk to the neighbouring village of Għarb.

In Victoria there are plenty of historical and cultural places of interest (Citadel, museums, art galleries, theatres) as well as entertainment places (shopping centres, cinema, restaurants, bars, pubs, regular events).
