Do not live here if you want to keep your sanity. I hardly slept for the entirety of living in Carrock halls, the walls are thin and the doors are loud. Absolutely every noise can be heard, and the bangs of the doors continuously through the night is scary! The rooms and kitchen are so dirty no matter how much you clean them, and the location is depressing. So happy I never have to return. read more

I was on the Ambleside campus. all though it was small it was good. all the staff are friendly and willing to help. if you wanted a peace of equipment that you do not own yourself then you are able to get one form stores for free as long as you return it again at a later date. the gym was small but it did have enough to get a good work out. to be honest, I didn't get the full experience due to covid. I'm hoping next year everything is open up a bit more so I can get a better experience with it. read more

I was on Ambleside campus and it is small but you all get to know each other and you’ll form your own little community. Campus is nice but small with basic facilities and societies were hardly talked about due to COVID. Students Union is good if you have any problems regarding the university or personal issues. read more

In normal circumstances I'm surethe university of Cumbria would have been a bit more informing in regard to clubs, societies and career services. Other than that the university of Cumbria has provided possibly the best year of my life so far. The campus creates a pretty familiar atmosphere due to everyone being in such close proximity to one another and due to this I have made friendships that I know will last a long time. read more

They have been very good during the pandemic at providing live online lectures and practicals when government allowed. Lecturers are very knowledgeable and easy to get on with and are very open to any questions. I have really enjoyed my first year despite the pandemic :) read more

Ambleside is an amazing area to study with very good lecturers, but the university and campus staff tell you very little about events or what is happening on campus. They are very bad at responding to emails or queries. read more

With an excellent location in the heart of the Lake District, I have never not been able to find an adventure. From Kayaking and hiking to cycling and climbing I have never been bored whilst at uni. They also have excellent stores facilities and clubs designed to get you out and exploring whilst studying an amazing degree! read more

Had quite a horrible experience with this institution to be honest. Staff were very unfriendly and unprofessional. Dismissive with concerns and the quality is teaching is very low. If you want a fair, unbiased environment that actually encourage learning, please choose elsewhere. Otherwise, nightlife is not that brilliant either. read more
