Group homestays in Colliers Wood
We arrange group homestays in Colliers Wood for schools and youth groups, working with experienced host families across the area. The area is located in southwest London, on the Northern line with direct access to central London.
Colliers Wood is a residential area in south west London, located within the London Borough of Merton. Situated on the Northern line, Colliers Wood offers groups direct Underground access to central London combined with a more affordable suburban setting.
The area sits along the River Wandle and is close to the National Trust’s Merton Abbey Mills, a former textile printing works now home to craft workshops and markets. Colliers Wood provides a practical base for groups seeking good value accommodation with easy access to London’s attractions.
What group leaders need to know
Every group is quoted individually, because centre, dates and numbers all move the price. The practical arrangements are the same wherever your group stays.
Students stay with host families in twos, threes and fours. Group leaders and other adults travelling with the group can have single rooms if any are free when you book.
We suggest full board: breakfast and dinner at the family’s table, and a packed lunch to take out for the day. Half board, without the packed lunch, is also an option.
A local organiser is at the meeting point each morning and evening. Students are handed over between host families and group leaders with someone responsible present both times.
Airport transfers can be arranged for the whole group by taxi, minibus or coach. Ask for a quotation when you enquire.
Hosts who take students under 18 are DBS checked, and our safeguarding policies cover every group placement.
Larger groups pay less per person. A deposit of 20% of the total or £500, whichever is higher, holds the booking. The balance is due 28 days before arrival.
