All accommodation is carefully inspected regularly and will be chosen to suit each student on an individual basis. For example, younger students will be put with families whenever possible. Adult and executive bookings will be placed with equally suitable hosts. 



You can be sure your hosts will:

• Be inspected and interviewed to British Council standards
• Be British
• Be friendly and will encourage conversation
• Have meals together with students
• Have enough space to live and study comfortably
• Help students to settle in
• Encourage students to join in family activities

Executive Homestay - £135 per week

For those that want a little bit extra from their homestay. You will be placed with a fantastic host who will provide you with three lovely meals and interesting conversation. Your room will be very comfortable and will include a private bathroom.

Homestay - £120 per week

This is not accommodation this is your home. The perfect way to learn about the British way of life: food, customs and traditions. You will join in the host's activities and family life. This is definitely the best way to practise your English conversation skills outside of school. Our families come from interesting backgrounds and want to learn about you!

Students will have their own room with comfortable bed, wardrobe, cupboards and access to a desk for homework. Most rooms have either a TV or stereo system and it may be possible to share the internet connection as well. Access to a telephone can usually be arranged.

Younger learners (14-18) on our summer English and Activity courses may share a larger room with a student of the same sex but different nationality. You will be told in advance if you are sharing.


Self-catering - from £85 per week
Fee includes all bills

For the more independent adult student, this choice allows you the freedom to shop and cook for yourself whilst still living with a British host. Self-catering accommodation is still carefully chosen so that you can live with friendly English people, but choose for yourself when to cook and eat. Standards are kept high but the costs are lower. Most of the self-catering accommodation is in walking distance of the town centre.
