Accommodation and Food

The boarding house accommodation is well appointed and comfortable with a variety of different rooms. Each house has its own character, but all have at least one large common room with TV, DVD and music centre and a fully equipped kitchen. The houses are single sex, though students can visit each other in the common rooms.

The houses have single and twin rooms for older students and dormitory or multi-bedded accommodation for the younger students. There are ample bathrooms on each floor.

You will share the house with students of different nationalities and can share a bedroom if you want to – giving you more opportunities to speak English. There are also several members of staff in each house to help you to settle in and ensure you feel at home.

Bedding is provided and changed once a week. There is also a laundry service for personal laundry once a week, for a small extra charge. Towels are not provided so please bring your own for swimming and showering.

Food

The standard of catering at Haileybury is very high. We provide breakfast, lunch and dinner in the elegant, wood-panelled dining hall. There is always a good variety of meals – usually at least 3 different choices for lunch and dinner including a vegetarian option. For breakfast we offer a cooked breakfast or cereal, toast etc.

Before going to bed, you can have a light supper in your boarding house – toast or biscuits and a drink.
