Homestay - Live with a London family
Stay with a London family while you study
We have our own carefully selected network of friendly, caring families who look after our international students coming to stay in North London. This type of accommodation is managed by the school and we get regular feedback from students staying with our London host families to make sure they’re enjoying their stay.
Many of our host families have been working with us for years and students often keep in touch with their “London family” long after finishing their studies.
What should you expect from a homestay in North London?
Living with a homestay family gives students the chance to practise English outside of school as well as experience British culture and way of life in a real London family home. Plus, you’ll have all the comforts of home like Wi-Fi, TV, and a comfy place to relax.
All our homestay options are located conveniently close to school, either within walking distance or just a few minutes by bus or metro (a maximum of 4 stops). With low transport costs and some meals included, this is the most affordable way to live in North London.
