Students

Homestay is the perfect option for international students coming to the UK. You can stay with a homestay host from 1night to 12months depending on your needs. You can stay with a host family near your Language School, College or University, get to know the local area, practice your English skills and have all the comfort of a safe family home. Your friendly host can introduce you to the local area and you can experience a real British culture. Once you have settled and made friends you can then find somewhere permanent to stay.

Homestayfriend works with a number of colleges to check and approve accommodation to ensure that you have the best possible stay. Please contact us to see if your college is involved in the scheme.

Visiting for work or business

Homestay is a great option for those travelling for work or business.
