Our dedicated accommodation team will always try and meet any specific requests you might have, typically related to dietary preferences, pets, allergies and smoking, to find you a suitable homestay. However, please remember this may limit availability in some cases. The more flexible you are, the easier it is for us to find you a place with one of our great homestays!
