Homestay Accommodation
Staying in a private home offers the best opportunity for you to immediately apply what you've learned in the language course. You'll also get a more of an insight into the lifestyle, traditions and culture of your host country and the habits of its residents.
The hosts are encouraged to treat the student as a full member of the household, eating together and sharing the home. No more than four students will be in the same homestay accommodation at any time. Facilities and services include:
- Wi-fi
- Laundry facilities
- Bed linen (changed regularly)
- Regular cleaning of rooms
We carefully select host families according to the following factors:
- The distance between the host family and the school
- The standard of accommodation
It is possible that your homestay may be located a little further away from the school, and there may be additional costs for public transport. The current price of a single bus fare using an Oyster Card or contactless payment card is £1.75 GBP (subject to change). PLEASE NOTE - you can't use cash to pay for your bus fare.
