Accommodation

Host family
A language is learned best when you are constantly immerged in the culture of the country. Staying with an Irish family means sharing in the lifestyle of a new culture on a daily basis and having an unforgettable experience. The families are chosen with care and know the school well. Students stay in a single room and benefit from half board during the week and full board at weekends.

Shared apartment (from 18 years)
The apartments made available by the school consist of two or three spacious bedrooms with the choice of a single bed, a double bed or two separate beds. During the high season, apartments with four to seven bedrooms are also available. Additionally, they are equipped with a cooker. Some apartments have a washing machine whilst others offer access to a laundry room. Situated around 15-20 minutes on foot from the school, they represent an ideal option for those who wish to live with other international students close to the city centre.

Leisure

The school organises activities in order that students may discover Galway and its surroundings. Outings to concerts or pubs are organised to allow you to discover the traditional and popular music of Ireland. The school also offers a range of sports, such as golf, fishing, tennis, sailing, horse riding, walking… all ideal for meeting other students and getting to know the country. If you have a free weekend, don't miss out on the Aran Islands!
