I came to John wood with the expectation that I would have no social life as I’m living off campus where first years are usually housed. But I have loved my experience in John wood building. Very big floor of people which made it easier to make friends as you aren’t limited to just a small number. I live in a shared bathroom bit on the floor and it’s been lovely we have our own kitchen and bathroom between 3. Initially I tended to cook in one of the main kitchens as I found it was a good way of making more friends but I now do cook in my kitchen as it’s more convenient and sometimes nice to have time alone, so the option is good! Cleaners are very good and bins are emptied every day! Maintenance are very good at responding to any needs you might have. But the thing I have loved most is living in the city centre. It’s more convenient for food shops, lots of gym options, pubs and obviously the clubs. The only thing is sometimes the buses in the morning so stay organised!

Decent accommodation in a very central location, although sometimes onerous getting to campus in good time when buses busy (or for rugby sessions in the very early morning!). Within the building itself, social space is limited to kitchens, although there is also the courtyard (weather permitting).
