Q
Are you able to cook meals yourself or is it strictly self catered?
By member1167750 On 2nd April 22
You can cook meals yourself, although the kitchen has only a microwave and a babybelling type oven (small and with two hob plates on top) to cook with and a regular fridge freezer between the whole floor (14-16 people). The food is amazing though!

1. depends partly what you make of it. Lots of socials, and there are always people going on nights out. But if you'd rather stay in and chat with people (or study/sleep) this is also possible. 2. Depends on what you choose and which evening. Always a Salad bar. 3. Literally every kind of person- on my floor alone we had more reserved, quiet people; people always on nights out; studious; the

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.

Woolton hall is a great hall to socialise during your stay at manchester university. Most of the people in the halls are very social. The dining quality is alright. My room is in the corner which means that the wifi connection is horrible. It is very likely that you'll disconnect multiple times a day. Despite this the hall is a pleasant place to be.
Very underrated! It was my last choice but i wouldn't want to be anywhere else. Very good socially.
Coming to Woolton wasn't my first choice however I'm so glad I got it! I've met the most amazing friends, unlike most halls the floors aren't shut off so you meet people from all 3 floors, and also your floor own 15 really well I also made friends with many people from different blocks it has a real community feel. I love a party and coming to Woolton didn't stop that at all, the food has good portions and actually I was pleasantly surprised, great way to meet people and theres always 4 options and sides so plenty of choice. I deffo recommend. My floor has 4 toilets 4 showers and there was rarely even anyone else in there at same time as me.
I have stayed in Woolton Hall in my first year of uni and it has been one of the best halls I could have stayed. The rooms are huge (perfect to do pres or hangouts), the bathrooms are really tidy and big and the fact that it is a catered hall makes it way easier to meet new people. However, it is not a noisy hall, so you get the best of both worlds. Compared to other halls the social scheme is just superior. I made friends really easily both in my flat and from other buildings too. The jcr is pretty active and we did different kinds of parties during the year in a big common area, that also has a pool table and you can play table tennis there too. The only downside of Woolton may be the kitchen, since it’s quite small, but it’s really fun to be there with your friends snuggled up in it and complain about it. Also, the schedule of the meals was not ideal and a bit inconvenient sometimes. Overall it was a great experience and I would recommend it to everyone.
Definitely would recommend Woolton if you want a spacious bedroom! Social Aspect is amazing. With formals going on which accommodations don’t usually do getting dressed up for them was so fun. 14 people on one floor hence you’ll definitely make friends. Shared bathroom wasn’t too bad as there was cleaners. The common room is in a different building which can be annoying but there is pool and ping pong. After having dinner people would go in there too chill and have fun. Catered was definitely helpful always looking forward to dinner. And breakfast is early 7 till 9 but definitely worth it to go! My first year uni experience has been the best due to Woolton met the most amazing people!
Being catered is a blessing in first year. The rooms are big and most have an alright view. The flats are of 16 people however I never had to wait to use toilets/showers. The kitchen was tiny but being a catered hall it wasn’t too much of an issue. The main problem is that the only social spaces are in the building next door. This building is also where the bar, dining room and study rooms are. Having everyone eat together and use the same common room was very social and gave a great sense of community. If you weigh up value for money, socialness and room quality, woolton is one of the best in halls in Fallowfield and definitely the best catered halls.
v unhealthy food, poor wifi that rarely connects, no common room per hall, bar opens once a month, halls are cliquey and difficult year on year, cleaning is v v poor
Honestly some of the best rooms available, really helps to have your own space that isn't a cupboard (like Oak House). Kitchens are smaller than a toilet cubicle but it's fun to moan about them constantly with your flat. Food is hit or miss but not having to think about cooking all the time is refreshing. Cleaners do a great job but do shout a LOT about bins. Able to mix with more people than in a flat situation due to dinner times and formals. Less crazy crowd but sure you'll find people you like (hopefully). Would recommend.
These halls definitely have some of the biggest rooms available! I really didn't want these halls whenever I first arrived, but being catered actually did save me a good amount of money and the food is very nice! The formals are great fun and there's a good mix of people, the bar is also decent to hang out in. Closest halls to Sainsbury's so can't complain!
The food is pretty bad, it sucks having a tutor in every block who just won't leave you alone, they expect 15 people to cook their lunch and weekend meals in a cabin sized kitchen (I'm not joking I've been on many boats with larger kitchens). But it is pretty and has a good location. If you're someone who wants lots of quiet nights in and doesn't mind cleaning up all the time it's a good choice for you.
the convenience/ social life of fallowfield but in a quiet grassy location! really nice big rooms and a big common room with pool table. great food too!
Great hall, but tiny kitchens and no area to socialise in the blocks - you end up sitting in a corridor.
Woolton is a great hall, because of its size you get to know absolutely everyone! The bar, common room and TV room is great! The rooms are the biggest on campus and the food is great
Wonderful friendly place #Wooltonians
The only social spaces are in another building, we were told we can't congregate in corridors, so the warden actually suggested that if we wanted to converse with the whole flat we should leave the building or the campus
Great hall everyone is so nice and the rooms are huge
as it's small there's a great community feel. nice big rooms, although no in-block common room. kitchen's are more like cupboards but it's something to bond over with your flat mates. the bar essentially acts as the common room- people bring their own drinks when the bar's not open. food's okay, not the best but at least you don't have to cook. nice quiet area so you can go out and party and go back to your quiet room. there are also cats and other wildlife in the area.
Wifi is great- really strong and not had any problems at all. The food is really nice and it is so much better to not have to worry about cooking meals. The location is great- near to all the students but in one corner of the main site so that it is less noisy. The halls are so sociable, with lots of events put on throughout the year and opportunities available and there are lots of people per floor, per block and when you go to eat so you have lots of chances to meet people and make friends.
Small kitchen and no common room for flat
Great hall but very quite during the day
Okay but not very sociable and very expensive
All i could ever want with a hall except no common room within the blocks. There is a common room next to the dinning hall with its own tv and bar.
