IELTS GT Task 1 Letter: Invitation — Travel

Original practice prompt written in exam style — not a real exam question, and not a prediction.

You are renting a cottage by the sea for a week in August and there is a spare bedroom. Write a letter to a friend inviting them to join you. In your letter: • describe the cottage and the area • say what activities you are planning • explain how the costs would be shared

Examiner focus: Selling the place honestly, plus money arrangements stated without awkwardness.
