Shared apartment

Each shared apartment has 2 to 7 individual bedrooms, a sitting room, a fully equipped kitchen and a bathroom. Each bedroom includes an individual bed, table and chair, wardrobe and telephone. You usually share with other students from the language school, but it might be that you will share with other Brittish people (students or family). The apartments are simply furnished.

Host family (18+)

Students stay in comfortable host family homes in the best areas of town, at walking distance from school. It is a school policy never to place students who speak the same language in the same home.

Student residence

In the summer you can book a single room in the halls of residence at the university. You share the kitchen, living room (with TV) and bathroom with other students. There is a launderette, reading room, music room, computer room with internet access and a truly beautiful garden with tennis courts.

Host family (16-17 years)

Students of 16-17 years old stay in comfortable host family homes in the best areas of town, at walking distance from school. You can stay in a single or double room (double rooms only when travelling together) on a half board basis (breakfast and dinner).
