    Choosing the right type of accommodation for your stay in London and Dublin, where you feel happy and comfortable, is very important and we have carefully selected a variety of accommodation to meet your individual needs.

    Homestay Staying in a Homestay is our most popular accommodation option and is by far the most cost-effective way of living in London and Dublin. Our hosts are friendly and welcoming, with comfortable homes. We select homestays for their location, the quality and cleanliness of their home and ability to offer a caring home from home. Staying in a homestay is also the best way to learn about English or Irish life and culture and to practise your English.
