Although St Giles London Highgate is only a 20-minute underground ride from central
London, the school is located in a peaceful residential area.
As a result we are able to offer our students homestay accommodation within a short
distance of the school. Host families are typically located 15-30 minutes away,
and sometimes less. We also offer Self Catering Homestay (where students can do their own
cooking and laundry). The cost of this option is the same as for Homestay with
breakfast only.
London is a big city, and is divided into 6 "Zones". Zone 1 is closest to the centre, and Zone 6 is furthest from the centre. St Giles London Central is in Zone 1
