Location Details
We take great care to ensure each of our hosts, and the accommodation they offer, have been thoroughly vetted, to ensure they meet our high standards and those set out by the British Council. Our interview and inspection process ensures the homestay host's environment is safe, welcoming and comfortable - helping you to feel at home!
The homestay hosts we recruit come from a wide range of social, ethnic and cultural backgrounds - reflecting the diverse cultures that make up Britain today, which gives you a rounded experience of our culture and lifestyle in the UK.
The majority of our hosts are located in South East London, which makes travelling to and from the city simpler and easier. Most hosts are located close to a train station and/or bus stop, helping you travel to the school or Central London.
Our homestays in London start at £220 per week, varying with single/twin rooms and board.
Please note that some homestays are provided by trusted local organisers, and we aim to place students within 60-90 minutes of our London school.
