Homestay accommodation

We offer carefully selected friendly local host accommodation.  Staying with a host family is an ideal way to practise your English in real-life situations.  It includes Bed & Breakfast and an evening meal.  Transfers to and from Cork Airport or Cork City Centre on date of arrival/departure may also be possible but is not guaranteed by all families.  Students should be prepared to pay some taxi costs.

  • €270 per week + €50 per extra night

Please note, for students studying with us longterm and staying with a host family, if they are resuming their course after Christmas/New Year holidays, a fee of one full additional week will be charged for hosting over the holiday period.
