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.

Great accommodation, lovely staff who go above and beyond to make students feel at home, with great events which happen every week. It's easy to access town and all the local hotspots. Been here 1 year and will be staying again next year. Can't fault the services provided and the staff all love to have a chat with students making it even more better. Any problems with the flat get sorted straight away as they have a on site maintenance man. Would recommend to all students.

I have stayed here for 2 years now, and it has been a lovely experience! It is a great location, near to the city and to the quayside. It’s just the right distance away from city to keep the noise away but close enough to get into the madness whenever you feel like. I recommend any student coming to Newcastle to definitely choose Knoll Court! You won’t regret it a single bit!!

I could not recommend a student accommodation more than Knoll Court! The staff are lovely, the monthly events are amazing and so fun! The flats themselves are amazing value for money and spacious and luxurious. The on-site facilities include a gym, vending machine, common room and they’re all such good value for how much you pay :)

My experience at knoll court has been good - the rooms are spacious with good furnishings, though in need of updating. Problems are usually dealt with well and staff are very friendly. Great value for money at £95 a week for an en-suite.

I stayed during my 1st and 3rd years at university. All the staff on site are great and friendly! The rooms are a nice size and with ethernet access I was able to use my computer setup without issue. Social spaces are relatively small but never too busy and always clean. Access to a table tennis table is a bonus and good fun. Only main issue would be the washing system. Circuit is an overly expensive service and due to the lack of space available in the washing machine area, there is often a wait for machines, so choose your times to do your washing carefully.

I loved living at Knoll Court. I stayed at Knoll Court for my Master's year at university and it was one of the best places I've stayed at while studying in Newcastle. The location was ideal - 15 minutes from campus, both a Tesco Express and Sainsbury's local close by, and five minutes from city centre - it is an ideal place to live for a student. Other than location being perfect for the social side of being a student, the quality of the flats are also good for the money you pay, a great value for money. Compared to my first year accommodation, Knoll Court was so much more affordable considering where it is located and for an en-suite and spacious room. I was really impressed with the amount of storage, desk space and the facilities (especially the gym and study room!). The staff at reception were always so friendly and always happy for a chat whenever I passed by - they were always able to offer advice and whenever I had an issue they were able to fix it straight away.

Pros : Location is very good.30 - 45 mins walk to Central Train station.5 mins walk to the nearest Metro train. 10-15 mins walk to the shopping Centre / bars / restaurant, 3 mins walk to the nearest Sainsbury. Northumbria Law & Fine Arts building are 3 mins walk. The Main University of Northumbria Campus is 15-20 mins walk. NCL University is 45mins - 1hr walk. Standard Room- ensuite is big enough with 3/4 size bed, big shared kitchen, shower is good, heating is working. The flats are shared with maximum of 5 people & minimum of 3 people.Its really ideal for students at the City Centre. Cons: If you need to go to Coach Lane Campus the number 1 bus is opposite the Northumbria Uni Library & Civic Centre  which is 20 mins walk ( 45 mins Bus journey to Coach Lane ).  In the winter the roads are not very well lit & I felt unsafe. You can't choose your room. Staff at Knoll Court are friendly but not helpful.

Great value for money, great location, the rooms and shared areas are really nice but the only thing which lets them down are the staff think it’s perfectly legal to enter your flats without consent, enter your rooms with our consent, and also ‘confiscate’ personal items. Staff break the laws and breach the rights of their tennents on a daily basis

Single bedroom, absolutely tiny. The bed itself isn't even a single, it's definitely smaller. Uncomfortable sitting room chairs, other halls have much better, much more modern kitchens than Knoll court. Washing prices are a nightmare and limited parking. Location is fab though. Electric heaters didn't last long enough on timer and barley heated up room, non existent in corridors so icy spells were horrid in winter. For £118 a week my room was so overpriced. There isn't a communal space that I was aware of and only one other room/flat on your level in the block I was in.

The location of Knoll Court is fab and the manager is lovely! I wish there were some more social events going on and it would be great to have a common room to meet new people. The rooms are a good size and having 3/4 beds next year will make them even better. I have really enjoyed my year in Knoll Court!
