Accommodation for the duration of your course at the University of Limerick Language Centre (ULLC) can be booked in advance.
Homestay accommodation
Homestay accommodation is when a student stays with a local family. Homestay includes full board (all meals).
Living with a local family helps students settle into life in Ireland. Students feel like part of a family and live in a safe, comfortable home.
Staying with a host family also gives students lots of opportunities to practise their English.
Our host families are carefully selected, individually inspected and continually monitored. They offer accommodation in comfortable and friendly homes either within walking distance or a bus ride away from the University.
