Most helpful review

Staff are lovely and friendly and happy to help. All very supportive to students with mental health issues. Only bummer is that reception is only open 12pm till 4pm Monday- Friday But other than that, is a lovely quiet place to live. Perfect for students looking for a quiet accommodation, close to the uni and town centre

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.

I have been here twice and now feel like my home in UK. And I am very upset for refurbish they shutdown whole accomodation, and its quite cheap and room is v accessible for me with my disability. I dont want to go anywhere till Januray 2024. And I am not able to find affordable accomodation near university. I am very emotionally attach here as well. I wish they may sort something out for an affordable price.

Amazing value for money and great location (inside campus), the big down is the lack of social spaces which doesn't help the social experience. I would recommend it for second years and final years because the location is amazing and great value (it is fairly cheap). For first years, I would recommend a hall with more social spaces, even tho it might cost you more money.
