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 accommodation is good value for money, considering it is one of the cheapest options around, however this is reflected in the services. For example, when I first moved in I noticed a large crack above my window, that was later leaking due to heavy rain, this was producing mould around the window, and needed to be fixed. I had to mention this to the maintenance and reception team at least twice before it got inspected, and following this, I had to enquirer about it a further 3 times in order to find out if they were going to fix it. 4 months later and the crack still has not been fixed, but I have been notified of a private contractor coming to fix it, but have not been told when this will happen. So the cost of the accommodation is brilliant, however the speed at which complaints and issues are dealt with is not efficient and most of the staff members are not made aware of these issues, therefore we have to chase up the complaints for a long while for someone to do something

This accommodation is beyond expectations it is definitely worth the money and the member of staff are extremely nice and understanding which I believe is crucial especially when living alone. All services here are done quickly this includes maintaining the cleanliness of the building and the safe atmosphere with a good location and internet. One thing I would like to point out is that I believe its not fair to pay £50 if you want to move rooms, I understand that this prevents a loophole in every one trying to move, but this aspect should judged on a case to case basis, some people may genuinely want to move for legitimate reasons and its a bit harsh to pay £50 for that. However other then this everything else about Moorlane halls is perfect.

The living here is a great pleasure , affordable and near to the university which is a plus point here. The social space with snooker and other activities around were great. Also there is a high demand among our flatmate where table tennis should be available. I will be more than happy if they include tabtennis please

My experience in student accommodation has been positive overall. I pay a decently cheap and affordable price compared to other cities, especially considering the amenities provided. I have an ensuite room, which offers great privacy, and I only share the kitchen with three other people, making it an easy going place to stay in an di have never had any issues with my flatmates. Maintenance is efficient and quick to address any issues that arise, and the security here is reliable. While problems with other residents are rare, it’s reassuring to know that the security team is there to handle such situations if needed. There’s also a common room, which is a nice addition. However, I do wish it was open 24 hours, as it was in some of the accommodations I stayed in previously. That said, I truly appreciate the availability of a gym on-site, which adds to the convenience and value of living here.

A good place to live while in uni! It’s close to most of my classes and flats are a good size. The kitchen and living room has everything I need and is large enough to host many of my friends. Staff are friendly and helpful and maintenance is generally very prompt when dealing with issues. It’s been super helpful to have a front desk/24h maintenance that can receive packages. The gym is a nice feature but is fairly small and some of the equipment is often out of order.

Moor Lane has excellent staff who work hard to ensure everything is running smoothly. They are lovely people and if they’re are ever any issues they try to resolve them quickly. The accommodation itself has everything I would need. 5 stars for everything except the WiFi is sometimes dodgy but when it is moor lane contact the WiFi provider and get it sorted.

I am very much satisfied with sanctuary students since I moved in August 2024, because the place is worth the money, and in great location for accessing everything and also providing all the amenities.I'm sad because my student period is ending soon ,so I needed to move out from here.I will miss my room it was so cozy always felt like a home away from home.I hope more people could find sanctuary students , especially moor lane halls to get a comfy and safe place 🤍.

This accomodation is perfect. The price is wonderful for students that are currently leaving in a period of economic recession, furthermore we have a gym that works and the accomodation is just 3 mins away from the university campus. The staff are so helpful and caring always ready to help you if you have any issues. I am very happy that I moved to this accomodation for this current academic year cause last year my accomodation was expensive, far from the university main campus and we also have an infestation of cockroaches in the kitchen which was very stressful.

This was a wonderful place for my university experience, it is close to campus and the library. It also has an on-site gym and the reception is so helpful. They have 24/7 help and that really keeps my mind at ease if anything goes wrong. The social spaces allows me to socialise with my friends and make new friends. The events held during the year also helped me to find new friends and see members of staff who were friendly and accommodating.

Everything is really good but had a couple of issues. One being the lift broke down with me and 2 friends in it and no one knew what to do really. Other problem was the flat I lived in had some issues and the security either never came or would take hours to come. Other than them issue I think sanctuary students are really good and I have even booked again for next year.

Moor Lane Halls is one of the best student accommodations in Preston. It is very close to the University (less than 5 minutes walk). The rooms are equipped with ultra-modern facilities. I will highly recommend for any student that wants a cool place to stay while in school.

I pay £99/week for an en-suite with a small double and think that it’s really good value for money. The bathroom is a decent size / big shower, as well as lots of storage in the room including under the bed. The kitchen and living room are huge with plenty of seating for everyone! The social spaces are very adequate but the recycling facilities aren’t brilliant. However, in saying that, I am 90% sure I’ll be staying there next year also for my 3rd year.

Everything about the accommodation was exceptional. It was clean, stylish with excellent service. Room was good and great value for money and service was attentive and efficient. Room itself was well equipped and comfortable. The maintenance services are also very quick.

Always have good deals for students struggling for money, so it's my second time in their standard accommodation. Nice to have onsite laundry, common room and gym, which is rare for halls of this price. The bedrooms are very roomy with a double bed, and there's a separate shared shower and toilet room which makes things much easier. My main concern is that the bathroom has no proper ventilation so mould grows quickly and is a pain to remove. Once you can get used to climbing the stairs (if you're on the top floor like me), it's mostly well worth the money when you can get the price reduced (I paid £65 a week this year).

A pigeon came into my room while I was away and defecated on my desk. Pretty noisy at night from nearby accom. Room was a bit of a shoebox. Other than that, very friendly people at reception and always happy to help

The accomodation was cleaned regularly and any maintenance issues were resolved promptly. The common room could have benefited from being open 24/7 given that their was on-site security nearby at all times. The Wi-Fi connection could be spotty for periods of time, but any known issues (such as maintenance) were given enough warning beforehand. Staff were pleasant and efficient at their jobs.

Moor lane halls has been an amazing place to live and I have chosen to live there again next year, recommending it to all my friends. The office staff are always very welcoming and inviting and are happy to help with any issues or queries. The maintenance crew come over to the flat as soon as you call them to look over the problem and even fix it then and there if they can, even with larger issues they will keep us updated and let us know when they will sort it out for us. The rooms are not as claustrophobic as some accommodations and have lovely grey and white furniture. The kitchen is spacious and have never had a problem storing all my kitchen stuff and food, it has a massive area for food prep and a tv area with couches. The pool table is a great way to speak to new people and also enjoy a game with flat mates for free, always a good way to break the ice if you all don’t know eachother. The gym is also a great bonus, free and no walking distance.

Great experience from Sanctuary Students Accommodation Preston. Staff are very friendly and resolve complaints quickly. Also they provide free gym, games and party. Value for money.

I have stayed here the whole time I’ve been at university and I cannot recommend it enough! From the moment I arrived i had a positive experience. The staff were friendly and helpful with everything. Everything was easy to book and arrange, they even allowed me to arrive early. Any issues I have had with flat mates they have been there to help with. When I have had hard times with my course or flat mates they have supported me. The accommodation is standard but for the price you can’t moan at all. Still the cheapest accommodation in Preston and so close to all local amenities. I’ve loved staying here and will miss the staff and friends I’ve made whilst living here.

Loved the 3 years I’ve stayed here for. Absolutely amazing staff and are always there to help with whatever you need. It’s so close to everything you need as a student and I’m definitely going to miss living at Moor Lane. I’ve made amazing friends living here and if I’ve ever had a problem with maintenance or anything it’s always fixed as soon as they can.
