Staying with an English Host Family in Richmond, London. There is no better way to experience British Culture and the British way of life than staying with an English host family. We are welcoming international student groups from many countries into our community in Richmond, London since 1993.

Richmond is one of the most popular areas in London. Our Royal suburban town is situated in South-West London, Zone 4, in the meander of the worldwide known River Thames. Richmond's tranquil riverbank is worth exploring for its historic pubs, high-end restaurants, luxurious shops, historic houses and a huge park full of Queen’s (now our King’s) deer.
