The home stay we work with have our abiding trust as we have collaborated with them for many years. We are sure you will feel welcome and at ease, since the Spanish culture is very warm and hospitable. Also, the host families are friendly and open, but do not expect to speak English with them; most of the members of the home stay only speak Spanish!

Full board in a home stay in Valencia includes breakfast, lunch, dinner and once-a-week laundry.

The accommodation is available from the Saturday before the course starts until the last Saturday of the course.
