I heard about the Lake School from our Education Ministry. There was a warm welcome, everyone was smiling! I had a very good teacher so my stay here was a great, interesting and cultural education!

Self-catering

Another option

Some of our students prefer to be in their own independent accommodation and to cook, wash and clean for themselves.

For some students, flatshare or homeshare is a possible option. However, it is best for students to start by living with a homestay and settle into Oxford first and then to look for suitable accommodation in the city. We can offer help and advice on this when you arrive at Lake School. Please note that you will be responsible for your tenancy agreement, utility bills and local taxes.

For mature students on short courses, we do still recommend living with a homestay as it is a great way to talk and exchange cultures. Students have their own key and complete independence, all meals are provided (except lunch on school days), and some homestays have private bathrooms.

However, if you wish to rent self-catering accommodation, we can help arrange this. To rent a 1 or 2 bedroom house/apartment, the cost is usually from £400 per week (on a short-let, fully serviced basis).

In the summer months, we may be able to offer other self-catering alternatives.

Please contact the school for more information about prices and availability of self-catering options.
