Residential driving courses
A residential intensive driving course is very similar to our standard intensive course number 3, with the main difference being you have the opportunity to stay in a local hotel for the duration of the course. The benefits of a residential driving course are that:
- you can be completely immersed in your course as you are away from the distractions of home
- you gain more lesson time enabling you to be ready for test quicker
- with locations across the UK, you have the flexibility to start immediately
- you have the opportunity to learn to drive in a new area
A residential driving course is ideal for those who need less than 20 hours tuition to reach test standard. The reason being, the main cost on a residential course is the hotel and 20 hours of tuition can realistically be done over 4 nights.
Our residential driving courses vary on price, depending on where your test is taken. The following table gives a guide as to our pricing structure:
| Band A | £170 | ![]() |
