Excellent experience from the start, the flat was clean when I moved in and that standard of cleanliness was maintained throughout the year in the communal areas. The location was excellent and very close to the University. The accommodation gives an excellent opportunity to make life long friends

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.

Overall all issues I have experienced have been swiftly dealt with have been quickly taken care of for example when the washing machine broke. Moreover the maintenance of the close and outdoor spaces has been excellent

I think Seabraes is a great place to meet other students whilst also being very close to campus and shops. The rooms are spacious and I love the advantage of having an En-suite.

The location is fabulous, being on campus but not quite as central as Belmont creates a great community and allows you to feel like you have your own private space outwith the bussieness of the uni. The maintenance team are incredible, so friendly and all problems are fixed very promptly

Lovely location and the social experience is amazing although we have had issues with heating, Wi-Fi and appliances provided so it does feel slightly overpriced but I do love living there.

Really enjoying my time here so far! It’s really well located and set up perfectly for studying and having a social life too. I’ve been able to put my own spin on my room and my flatmates and I are having the best time together! My room is spacious and offers a good amount of storage so I can have all my clutter and it still looks tidy, the accommodation is so well set up and the staff are so lovely, the common room is also great! It has various games and stuff like that and also a tv with Netflix and other streaming services, you can go down there in a big group of friends or by yourself and have a nice time

It was very close to big tescos and had plenty of places nearby to shop, eat and more. It was especially good for me as an art student as the art building was 5 mins walk away

Great location to the uni, a really short walk up. Also such an ideal location for big tesco while still being so close to the uni and town. Wifi was really really good, literally better than my wifi at home. There is a hill walking up to the uni but it’s not too bad. Common room was really nice however I probably only actually went in it once or twice lol. Overall Seabraes slayed :)

Really liked how friendly the staff are and how punctual they are when the fire alarm is off. Even when there is a situation in the flat there would always be a staff on site that would be able to help us until the issue is resolved. Thank you!

I had a great time in Dundee Seabraes even though I didn’t get on well with my flat mates there were plenty of opportunities to meet people from other flats and make friends. Having a private bathroom was also an amazing amentity.

The new Seabraes court building is in a great location that is close to both the university and the riverside tesco. The room and the kitchen inside the flat are very spacious and bright. All the staff are helpful and kind. I have thoroughly enjoyed my stay here and would definitely recommend this accommodation to other students.

Seabraes is a good place to live. However, I have experienced some problems with my flat. For example, the front door to the flat broke off, the radiators stopped working in the winter and our keys to the front door of the flat were difficult to use in the lock. The facilities such as laundry are good and easy to use. Staff are nice and helpful.
