The house is clean, the room is comfy, the food is good and Lee & Helen is the best host I have ever seen with lovely two dogs :) This will be the only adress I stay in whenever I am in Bournemouth. Strongly recommended!

Don't hesitate, go for it! This was my first experience with homestay and I can fully recommend staying with Helen and her family! They are really wonderful! Delicious dinner, lovely breakfast, cute little dogs (I'm sure I'll miss them :-)), perfect location, clean & tidy room... The room is small but has really everything you need and I really felt at home. Thank you for everything!

I am stayed one month in Bournemouth and I am glad to be gone in Helen and Lee's Family.
It's a young and very nice family. Everybody is friendly (the pets also).
They are accessible and they can help us when we have a problem.
Moreover we are quite free. We can go out and come back home when we want.
I really felt in my home in this host family.
I really recommend this family if you want to travel or stay for an internship in Bournemouth.November 2015
They are a very lovely family who welcomed me from the beginning as a part of their own family! I ve spent 2 weeks in there and definitely will go again soon! I have been in many host families but none of them as good as Helen and his family. Very good meals and a very clean house! Their dogs are lovely but even thought you do not like dogs, they will not bother you at all, they are very independent and are very well educated. You will definitely have very nice chats and feel like at home. Do not hesitate to book their rooms as you will not regret it! I just can thank them for their dealing and kindness with me :)

I stayed for 14 days with Helen and Lee's home. I enjoyed very much. I was absolutely satisfied.They are very good host and parents. My staying at their home was one of my greatest experience during my holiday in Bournemouth.I highly recommend this beautiful family home for others.I am sure sure they are not to be disappointed.

You then pay your host on arrival or as stated by your host on their profile and agreed by you on booking. Please be cautious if a host requests advance payment if its not included on their profile.
