Best value for money... kitchens aren't shared between too many and neither are the bathrooms but it's enough to be social. A little bubble of residential area still right on central campus. It can be both loud and quiet, depending on what you want to make of it (it is both quieter at times but also central campus so there's also some parties going on). It's less than a 10 minite walk from the shopping centre too. It was originally my 5th choice but I love it now... it's such a good mid-range option and also really pretty. Glad to be saving almost £100 a week. It also has the longest let (43 weeks) which is great. The only downside is the only communal space is the kitchen and there are only stools in there which ache your back after a while, but you can just bring chairs from your room in. A massive (like actually massive) desk, quite a lot of storage space, a bedside table and lots of plugs. Comes with an ethernet cable. Can always look out and see squirrels/foxes/even rabbits :)

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.

Work Hard Play Hard environment. If you get a good flat you will have a great time but you run the chance of being given a very unsocial flat and have a painful time.
