Nice airfield, tower controlled with two runways and a decent mix of the usual small GA stuff with a few jets. But winters can be hard up there and now might not be the best time of year.
Be sure also you understand what the 'JAR-compliant' PPL means. There is really no such thing: you will get an FAA Private Pilot's Licence which is usable in the UK up to a point, but lacks some important priveleges of a JAA/PPL in the UK (no night flying, no add-on ratings possible).
