Student Accommodation
Active Language Learning offers several accommodation options to suit different student preferences, including host family accommodation, independent living (Residence) , and hotel accommodation at preferential rates. All options are located nearby.
Host family accommodation offers a more culturally immersive experience, with students typically living within a maximum of 20 minutes by public transport from the school. Fabulous Independent living (Residence) accommodation is available within 5 minutes of the school, while a range of hotel options are also available depending on budget and preference.
With our geographical advantage, many students are in a position to either walk to school or make use of the short bus and transport links within the town.
We are also just a short commute from Dublin city centre, offering easy access to major attractions while maintaining a safe and relaxed coastal study environment.


Homestay Accommodation
One of the most rewarding parts of studying English in Ireland is experiencing authentic Irish life. At Active Language Learning, we believe that language learning extends far beyond the classroom, which is why our carefully selected homestay accommodation remains one of our most popular accommodation options.
Our host families offer students a warm Irish welcome and the opportunity to become part of everyday family life. Living with a local family allows students to practise English naturally, build confidence in real-life situations, and gain a deeper understanding of Irish culture, traditions, and customs.
Many of our host families have been welcoming international students for years and take great pride in helping visitors feel at home from the moment they arrive.
