This place is a steal for the money I pay. The cinema room is one of my favorite spots; it’s perfect for cozy movie nights with friends. The gym is well-equipped and conveniently located, allowing everyone to keep up with their fitness goals without needing a separate membership. Plus, there’s also a game room, where residents can play pool, table tennis, board games or just hang out and socialise . On top of all this, the management team is incredibly friendly and nice, always ready to lend a helping hand or answer any questions. Overall, the vibe here is friendly and vibrant, creating a great community where students can truly connect with one another.

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.

This student accommodation in the UK is truly impressive. Both the overall environment and the facilities feel thoughtful and well-designed. The apartment features a simple yet cozy design, combining modernity with a sense of home. The communal areas are clean and bright, making them perfect for relaxing or spending time with friends. Moreover, the management team is highly professional and friendly, always ready to address any needs or concerns. It’s an excellent choice for students.

The location of the accommodation is very convenient. Just a short walk to my uni campus and also not far from the city centre. A bus stop just outside the property and a supermarket directly opposite. I can’t recommend Radford Mill enough. It’s literally the best. They are also quick to respond to maintenance issues. I’ve once submitted a maintenance request a night before and i got it repaired the following morning. They care about the tenants.

The rent that we are paying is too high considering the fact that we have to pay for other services like laundry and drier seperately and the prices are pretty high. The social spaces are nice, play games with your friends. The maintenance is a bit slow, for any of your complaints to get resolved , it takes 15-20 days and sometimes they even forget about your problems and you have to raise a request again which makes the process more time consuming.

Staying at Radford Mill has been an enjoyable experience, combining convenience, community, the gym. The location is one of its best features, offering close proximity to university facilities, shops, and public transport, which saves a lot of time and effort. The social spaces are vibrant and well-maintained, providing an ideal environment for students to relax, study, or socialize. The property management team is approachable and handles requests well, though there’s room for quicker responses during busy periods. While the cleaning of communal areas could be more consistent, the accommodations are generally in good condition, offering a comfortable living experience. One aspect is the sense of community created through social events. These gatherings are great for meeting other students and building connections, which is invaluable, especially for those new to the area. Additionally, the Wi-Fi is reliable for both academic and personal use, making it

To begin with, I found it to be a welcoming and calm place, which is perfect for studying. The staff was attentive to my needs and concerns, and they addressed them promptly. Although it can be challenging when you first check in, especially when carrying your belongings into the room or after shopping, you will adapt to it with time. You also have to pay to use the washing machine, but all instructions are given in the washing room. However, the application for washing machines disturbs Android phones, which I hope will be addressed soonest. The space in a studio room is considerably spacious compared to other university rooms, and having a kitchen and study table in one place is perfect for privacy. The neighbors are friendly and busy students like you, and the accommodation is close to various universities and shops, making it convenient for students. Overall, I am having a good experience and would recommend it to students who prefer privacy, calm places, and independent living.

Radford Mill is overpriced, mainly targeted to international students who will pay the extra money for accommodation. There are social spaces such as a cinema room and games room, but no one really uses it to socialise so don't expect to come and easily make friends as everyone is quite reserved. But the apartments and studios are nice and have a very mature, homely feel to them. Security are 24/7 which is really good in case you get locked out or any other issues. For the price that they request, I feel as though all studios or apartments should be equipped with a microwave and TV. Good location directly in-between NTU and UoN.
