Most helpful review

Tuke House was a really great value-for-money accommodation, with spacious rooms and ensuites and social kitchen areas. It's in a really good location right in town and very close to Falmouth University.

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.

not the best accommodation. would recommend not paying extra for a view because facing the courtyard means you hear the homeless people yelling and random members of the public blaring music at 4am. facing the road/car park is best because its quieter. they turn a blind eyes to trespassers and don't reinforce rules. halls have a weird atmosphere in my opinion. if you get lucky with flatmates, then it won't be dirty, but not many now-a-days are considerate. site team don't really like helping students and its obvious. close to woodlane campus though but the hill is dreadful to walk up. mold issue. good bin facilities. only 3 washers and dryers. the small rooms will make you go crazy. cleaners hoover hallways and mop kitchen every wednesday at 10am. maintenance will often be in your space without notice. fire alarms give you an aneurysm and are always off. overall your experience depends on how much you can make the most out of it. would recommend ocean view if you have the budget.

A very good location, and a good price. Well looked after, and staff are friendly and helpful. However some parts of the building are very unclean, and there was a common rat issue.

It was a comfortable space to stay in. My room was a good size to do work as well as relax and the kitchen was a nice area to socialise. Cleaning was once a week so this kept my flat to a decent standard. There’s a lot of noise being next to a car park and the front door of the building but it made up for it being in the centre of Falmouth.

Despite being the cheapest student accommodation in falmouth, I found it was arguably one of the best in terms of location and social spaces. There is a big courtyard in the middle of all the flats, and it only a few minutes walk from the town centre. It's also only about a 10 minute was from falmouth campus.

Best social accommodation everyone surrounds the courtyard so your never alone. It a really close accommodation too, as everyone knows everyone. However feels a bit like a prison in terms of dated looks but it is in THE BEST LOCATION EVER. 5 mins from town and social life as well as the falmouth uni. Also not to far from other accommodation sites so very social.
