Personal comments
Because of have lived before in England, and my instruction language in the NL was also English I didn't really occur bigger problems. But being in a native speaker environment offers more opportunities to improve syntax, vocabulary and pronounciation.

Personal spending habits
In general things were more expensive because of the exchange rate between the euro and the pound. But on the other hand since Amsterdam is a quite expensive city as well, things like food and nightlife were not much more expensive. The most expensive item in the UK was the rent which was still very high even though I stayed in student halls.

Personal comments
Very nice. They are private rooms with a shared kitchen and living quarters. You get to know your flatmates really well, while having your own privacy at the same time.
