Where to learn Spanish in Spain?

[mattmc1]

I'm from London and have been avidly studying Spanish for the last 8 months with both Rosetta Stone and at the Instituto Cervantes in London, although I think to benefit from this again I would need to be at a more competent level than I am currently. I also do a language exchange with a Spanish girl in London every week.
I would really like to spend more than just 2 weeks in Spain, but unfortunately my job won't allow for that.

I asked you that because I would like to ask you where in your aisle is the best or more pure English.

He said:
"For example, listening to people from the Home Counties in the UK is a pretty good way of picking up 'standard' English, whereas if you were to try and learn English from Newcastle or Liverpool, whilst it is obviously English, the accents and the regional dialects could make it a harder learning experience."

Isle or island. Aisles are mainly found in supermarkets.

Thank you all for your advice. A quick question about whether Madrid would be a good place to learn for such a short period - I come from London (in answer to your question Chileno) and have really enjoyed my time in Madrid, so that could be an option. I also understand that Madrileños don't speak very much English, so the chance of them reverting to English when speaking me will be slightly less...

You can learn it everywhere, just interact with local folks. Experience is your best teacher.
