What our guests say
Kimi
The Windmill Hill homestay language immersion program provided me with invaluable cultural insights and language skills that I couldn't have gained elsewhere. It meant I started my uni course 5 steps ahead!
Thank you Gigi and Jon - my new London family!
Camille
Gigi's methodology is truly well suited to progress. I was sent a questionnaire in advance so we got started from Day 1 and, throughout, the programme was adjusted to my needs and goals. Gi and Jon are a family of travellers with many interests, attentive, very approachable and friendly so discussions were fluid and interesting. We highly recommend them!
Mathis
I spent 18 nights with Gigi and Jon to improve my English: an exceptional experience. I went from a fragile A2+ level to a B2 level thanks to perfectly adapted courses. This stay allowed me to progress quickly, discover London, make valuable professional contacts and share a real family life.
