As an international student who wants to have a comfortable place to call home i think this accommodation makes me feel like I’m home. It has a good amount of space in the room to relax as well as to do your work. Even with the shared bathroom and kitchen, i believe that this accommodation is worth for the price. Not to mention the location is close to the campus which takes only 10 minutes to walk to. It also has a social area where you can have fun with your friends or do study groups.

Ashcroft and Oakley Court Townhouses Biography
Ashcroft and Oakley Court Townhouses opened in September 2023. These low-carbon townhouses have been designed with sustainability in mind and are perfectly positioned to give you easy access to Pritchatts House social hub. Here you will find a launderette, study areas, games area, and bookable private spaces.
Comprising duplex and ensuite rooms, the townhouses look onto an attractive landscaped courtyard – the perfect place to relax with your friends and flatmates on a sunny day. Depending on which room type you’ve chosen, you will either have a private bathroom or share with one other student. You will have a spacious, contemporary room all to yourself regardless, and share a modern kitchen-diner with up to 11 housemates.
Each room is self-catered and includes a bed, study desk and chair, plus plenty of storage. If you don't want to cook for yourself every day, you can upgrade to Student Living Plus – University of Birmingham’s catered accommodation package – at any point during your stay.

All the Answers You Need About Student Accommodation
What tenancy length do I need?
Some students choose to stay during the academic year, whilst others – particularly international students – require a tenancy that covers the entire year. You can also find student accommodation that is available for one or two terms, classified as a “short stay” on our search filters.
Should I stay in catered student accommodation?
This is totally up to you! Catered accommodation means you will be served meals at set times in a dining hall, and you’ll likely have access to fewer kitchen facilities than if you were to stay in self-catered accommodation.
What is a guarantor and do I need one?
A guarantor is a person who signs a contract to agree to pay your rent if you are unable to. Most university accommodation requires a guarantor, and this applies to both domestic and international students.
Will I need to pay a deposit on student accommodation?
Most likely, yes, you’ll need to pay a deposit. This will be refunded at the end of your stay as long as there is no damage to the room or property.
What bills will my rent include?
If you are staying in university-run accommodation or private halls, your rent should include any utilities such as electricity, gas, water, and internet. Students are not required to pay council tax, however you may need to fill in an exemption form so make sure you check with your local council.
What is purpose-built student accommodation?
Purpose-built student accommodation (PBSA) are residential buildings designed for students. They are often located close to campus, boast modern facilities, include all bills, and often have staff on site to assist residents.
Will my student accommodation be furnished?
Student accommodation is typically fully furnished. Your room should include at least a bed, clothes storage, desk and chair. You’ll likely need to bring things such as bedding and kitchen utensils, but we have a full list here of everything you’ll need.
