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 very good! The property is worth the money bar the shower which could be better, the pressure is too low and the heat fluctuates too much. Plus the auto lights are more annoying than anything. Other than that the rooms are big, the stuff regularly check in, the response team is pretty fast.

Cathedral Campus has great value for money, great access to maintenance and assistance. There are a few letdowns that are not the fault of Dwell but rather companies that have deals with Dwell like Circuit Laundry and Glide wifi however the staff at Cathedral Campus do their absolute best to accommodate these issues.

I lived in Cathedral in my first year and it gave me the best opportunity to socialise as my friends lived 10 doors down and made it so accessible. I now live here again in my second year as the value for money is great. The reception staff and maintenance guys are always happy to help. It is so close to the Uni I go to and is only a 5-10 min walk from all the shops you need.

I moved in a few days ago and have been blown away by the value for money. My Room was very nice and tidy and the location is amazing. Everyone has settled quickly. I would suggest maybe a social area with table tennis or board games so I can socialise without spending money or drinking as that's what I prefer. But overall, this is amazing

Issues with delayed construction on arrival but the team were very apologetic and resolved the issues as soon as possible, compensting us as well. Any maintenance issues are sorted out very quickly, and the team are really kind and helpful. The location is perfect and the Cathedral is a lovely landmark to live beside.

I moved into Cathedral campus in 2022 during my second year of uni, and I have nothing but great things to say. I’ve had such a good time at this accommodation, that me and my roommates are living in the same house this year too. If you’re a student studying in Liverpool, I would 100% recommend Cathedral Campus. It’s close to all the universities, especially LIPA, and it’s close to the centre of town. 24 hour security and amazing people at reception, you’ll always feel safe at this accommodation. I’m so glad I chose to stay for a second year at cathedral campus.

Unfortunately my stay in Liverpool was cut short due to not liking my university and changing, I had to keep my key and contract until summer and got told I could use it as a holiday home and my room and stuff would be safe. It was not safe, I arrived to sign out of my Accomodation and hand in my key after a few months of not being there and most of my belongings was stolen, my main stuff was my blow up bed, my bed duvet cuver blankets pillows etc, half my clothes and alll my storage boxes and suitcase beneath my bed. Reception done nothing about it and there wasn’t any cctv to help the police. It came down to the police believeinf it was the staff on site but the receptionist didn’t help the police or anybody else look into it and denied everything. The funny thing was whoever it was that got into my room WHILST IT WAS LOCKED, left a disgusting plastic reusable Starbucks cup. So think twice before you book your stay as the staff are dodgey.

Cathedral Campus is in an ideal location, making it easy to get to Uni while being close enough to walk into the city centre or the dock. The rooms are modern, clean and simple, allowing students to make them their own. The social spaces within the house are ok, depending on the house option you choose and there is easily enough storage throughout the house. Overall, it has been a very pleasant experience staying at Cathedral.

I've enjoyed living here. The staff are very friendly and always happy to help with a genuine duty of care. Any problems I've had have been resolved as soon as possible. The grounds are well kept up together, and the living spaces themselves are nice too. I've had a happy four years staying here.

Fantastic location worth 6 stars really, however the cleaner who cleans the kitchen and bathroom once every two months (I think that’s what it was) left just before Christmas and another was never hired which isn’t a massive issue but we thought we would have that all year.

If you want to live in a prison... this is the place for you! Cathedral are really great and pride themselves on their no fun policy. If you love going to bed every night at 10:59 then I would definitely advise living here. If you were to be caught sat on your house wall talking to your neighbour at 11:03pm, you would receive emails containing warnings about breaking their student friendly rules (true story). Why they think the rules are suitable for 18-21 year olds is completely beyond me. STAY AWAY!!
