Everyone will have their own bias. Personally, I've been very happy indeed with HGFC (at Wolverhampton International Business Spaceport etc) - friendly good instructors, relaxed atmosphere, very quiet field, and the ability to stay based there during CPL/IR if you decide to go that way later on. Ultimately, it's down to how you feel and how happy you are. Why not do a trial lesson or 2 at each place to see where you fit in best? It might cost a bit more initially, but worth it if it serves you well in the future.
