Most helpful review

This is the perfect place to stay for UoD students. The accommodation is located in the middle of the university and next to Dalhousie and the library. The staff are friendly and supportive, and our flatmates have helped create a strong community atmosphere. I highly recommend staying at Heathfield.

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.

Do not book accommodation there! There are much nicer and cheaper options in Dundee. Except for the location which is very central, nothing is worth your money in these accommodation. The shared space is filthy and way too small to share with 5 other people. I am an international postgraduate student and I trusted the University when they recommended I didn’t look for private accommodation and instead went with the ones provided by the University. I realized that this was a HUGE mistake as soon as I saw the flat in person but they told me it was too late to cancel. I tried everything to get out of this contract so I coule find a more suitable accommodation, even offering that they keep my 1000GBP deposit, and they said no. I am usually not a person to write reviews but this has been such a bad experience that I want to share. I strongly recommend you find somewhere else to live during your studies!!

Generally, I agreed that Heathfield is a lovely, safe and convenient place for every student and I left many sweet memories. But, the rental cost is too expensive and need to re-think for long term. Finally, I decided to move out to private accommodation to cut the cost of living in Scotland.

It has got an amazing wifi facility in here which helps me to watch and study anytime. Cozy heating and a good room view is the exciting part of everyday student life.

Overall Heathfield is a good accommodation. The closeness to campus as well as grocery stores and the mall cannot be undervalued. For what we pay however, more amenities could be provided to us. Free gym membership or free access to the pool. Provide us with a toaster. Small things like that.

I remember I entered in my flat early before any of my roommates to arrive, but trust me i haven't felt unsafe. This university property is so secured as well is kept very clean. Apart from this, I can get groceries and cafe's are situated so close to my place. And an assistance required is provided so soon. It is totally worth every penny. Also, cherry on the cake is that you won't be late for your classes :)

By Sajid On 28th October 23 verified Verified student

While many of my peers were complaining about their accommodation or were afraid of being scammed, I found myself at peace and secure in my accommodation at Heathfield. Being an international student in a foreign land is not always easy, but at least I don't have to worry about where I stay, eat, and sleep. Though a bit expensive, my rent covered all the utility bills, high-speed internet, 24-hour hot water, and heating. The kitchen is also well-equipped with stoves, an oven, a fridge, and a freezer. I must also acknowledge their prompt service delivery. When we faced a problem with our oven, it was replaced with a new one within the shortest possible time. Fire safety is also top-notch, and I commend the housing's zero-tolerance policy for racism and abuse. Due to my apartment's location in the centre of the University of Dundee, I don't have to pay any money for my travel to the university, the city centre, or the supermarkets, which are all located within a 1 km radius.

Having moved here 2 months ago to study my LLM in International Oil and Gas Law, the experience has been pleasantly surprising as everything is in close proximity from one another, I get to my classes quite easily because Healthfield is placed right on campus grounds. The rooms are quite spacious and most importantly the bed you’ll get is a double for maximum comfort, that’s what I appreciate the most.

I think it’s a little bit expensive, I understand the cost of living, but you’re meant to be for students. I think the kitchens could have something a little extra to encourage socialisation of flatmates. There’s no toaster. For how much I’m paying I want a toaster.

Get ready for the lowdown on my amazing time at Heathfield student accommodation in Dundee. It was an absolute game-changer! Living there was a blast—I met incredible people from around the world, like my awesome flatmates from Nigeria and South Africa. We had a cultural feast in our own flat, sharing stories and trying delicious dishes. Plus, the place was spotless, thanks to their top-notch cleanliness. The Sanctuary Students office was always there to save the day when needed. And let's not forget the epic parties and fantastic events—they kept the excitement going. Heathfield truly made my university experience unforgettable. :)

It was really good. You have access to each part of university just by a minute walking. The internet connection was really fast. Hanging out with roommates depends on your rommate, how much they are introverted and interested in going out , but still most of them are in to hang out. The services were also good. The person who was responsible for checking the building was on time and polite. The alarming system was also working properly. There is a lot of space in kitchen that you can use for cooking, chilling out and having a party if you want. The hygiene of the whole building was also noticeable. 99% of the cases it was spotless.

All the facilities worked well, I didn’t suffer the cold new students suffers because the heater was always working. I recommend heathfield for anyone coming for, I settled in quickly and had amazing flatmates. I give the accommodation a five start….

I enjoyed my stay at the college campus. Well it is expensive when compared to staying outside campus, however the service given is exceptional good. The rooms are ensuite bathrooms and the common area with kitchen is shared. There was plenty of space to store things in kitchen as well as in rooms. There is Wi-Fi service everywhere around the campus, closer to class and library, routine checks conducted of the premises, walkable location to groceries and city centre, one call away for any kind of help required and most important of feeling save around. I enjoyed having company of other students and never felt alone. The campus and the buildings were kept clean every time and staffs working here are very helpful. There were several activities conducted by the res-life team which was a break from hectic studies. I enjoyed my stay at Heathfield which was worth of every penny spent.

Overall, I must say that I had an extremely poor experience staying at Heathfield for last 8 months. Too expensive for what we get. Even the DUSA shops which are meant to be subsided for students are expensive. We have faced multiple time noise issues in our flat during quiet hours and the security was of no help . The mattress are the worst in the world I must say. I have had complained multiple times and was directed to disability services. We are not disable and the university must understand that. You cannot sleep properly, after a few weeks of usage, started getting backache, neck pain and improper sleep. It seems like I have not slept properly for last 8 months and another 1 month to survive. I can write further, but that would be waste of time. For 707 £ / month, this is far from being satisfactory. Interested only in timely payments but not service. I will never recommend anyone to stay in Heathfield for the money students pay. The university must compensate for the agony.

In general, everything is good. The only drawback is that there are no places to hang out in the yard except a couple of benches

Its my first year in university of dundee, but it is not good experience. When i live in heathfield, accommodation officer check the condition of room frequently. It influence my roommates and me lives. Some of office treat us extremely badly. Also lots of my firends from other flats said they meet same situation frequently. Even one time one of accommodation officer visit their room and open the door of my friend without prior warning

I lived there in from Sep 2018- May 2019. Everything was alright except the kitchen dirtiness which I think would depend on the flatmates. But my experience was crappy, I had to tolerate sticking with dirty flatmates for many months. The online payment is extremely bad. They show you the wrong amount which is more than what you really need to pay. I had to deal with the Bank again because of that. Even if you email them about it, they won't reply you for weeks. Perhaps, they don't know how to solve that! It is a scam. GO SEARCH FOR OTHER ACCOMMODATION!!

Heathfield is very expensive and I only chose it as I had no other option. But I have managed to make the most of it. It is in a very convinient location on campus and has plenty of shops nearby.

The halls at Heathfield aren't the cheapest available but you certainly get what you pay for, on arrival everything was clean and in good condition. It is set only 2 minutes walk from the union building and is right next to the gym and some major lecture theaters.

I am absolutely shocked at the price of the rent. I've had a call from a family member worried. The added stress of worrying about having a roof over your head when your a new student is awful. I said there must be a mistake, the fee is more than my homes rent! Why so extortionate? Why the lack of funding? Concentrating on studying is the only thing that should be on his mind. Outrageous. Can someone explain this to me?

My time there was enjoyable at first and a great opportunity ti meet new friends and settle into university life. The management were very strict but i felt secure at night. Over all experience was good, size of rooms are very basic but good enough with your own toilet. The common areas are very basic but able to lock everything.

Fantastic location. A bit pricey, but worth it for how close you are to everything. Union, shop and uni buildings are 2- 5 minute walks away and right next to the gym

Heathfield halls have been a great place to spend my first year at Dundee University. I have made many friends while living and been able to get a feel for independent living without extra worries about electricity, heating or wifi bills. One thing I would say that would improve Heathfield would be that it would be extremely beneficial if the Heathfield car park could be opened up for the use of residents throughout term time, there is not a lot of parking available on campus and this would allow residents to not have to park elsewhere in Dundee. Overall, Heathfield has been very good and I have enjoyed staying there greatly.

very good location and good size however our fridge broke and our food went mouldy and we had to tell the management 4 times and our tap is making loud noises and they have come and checked it and agreed they need to get someone out to fix it, but haven't. this had been going on for 3 months. bed rooms are nice and beds comfy, we are meant to have a cupboard however it is locked therefore we cant use it
