Personally I'd recommend the opposite. I'd say learning in a flat, open area like an empty parking lot (someone said Lansdowne before, that's a good choice) is the best. Helps you get acquainted with the operation of the clutch without the increased risk of burning the thing out. Get accustomed to using it on the flat areas first, and then continue on to the hilly areas. You're probably going to want to use the handbrake on the hills when learning, but you'll eventually be able to go without it after a while.
I took Young Drivers when I was learning, but I heard recently that they stopped offering manual lessons using their cars. I think if you want to learn stick with them you'll have to supply your own vehicle, but I'm not 100% sure on that.
