Accommodation

Host family
Staying with a host family is an excellent way of practising the studied language daily in a warm and motivating atmosphere. The selected families provide you with a single room and half board during the week and full board at weekends. They generally live in residential areas of the city, close to public transport, around 30-40 minutes away from the school. In addition, students who choose to stay with a host family benefit from a free airport transfer when they arrive (between 9 a.m. and 10.30 p.m.).

Shared apartment (from 18 years)
If you prefer sharing with other students from the school, then this option is made for you. The "Coppinger Court" apartments around 5 minutes' walking distance away from the school whilst those of "Ard Patrick" are 15 minutes away from the school. They consist of 3, 4, 5 or 6 rooms as well as a kitchen, living room with a television and a bathroom to be shared with the other students.

The school offers a range of activities that allow you to immerse yourself in the Irish culture: guided tours of Cork, outings to the theatre or to traditional music concerts, etc. The school also organises half-day, full-day and occasionally even weekend excursions for you to discover the treasures of the region or make a flying visit to Dublin.

Testimonial

Stefania Lafranchi I feel my English has improved because I can practise it everyday with friends, teachers and the family. What I mostly like about Ireland is the people, the green hills, the beautiful beaches, the Irish accent and of course the pubs!
