What Is Homestay in the UK?

Homestay is a very popular accommodation option for overseas students coming to the United Kingdom. Many students are here to improve their English and the immersive environment of staying with one of our friendly and welcoming homestay hosts is well proven to deliver real benefits in practicing and improving English language skills.
