Yes, friends and family are more than welcome to visit. Guests are not allowed to stay overnight without the written permission from the Hall Manager. Please remember, you are responsible for your guests and their behaviour.
Kitchens, showers and toilets are cleaned daily. However, for the kitchens to be cleaned properly, you have to make sure you clean up after you have used the kitchen. This means that pots, pans, plates, crockery and cutlery cannot be left to rot in sinks or on kitchen tables.
There is limited car parking at the front and rear of the building. This is only accessible during office hours. Please contact the office staff for further information.
Usually kitchens are shared by about 12 people. There are sufficient showers for men and women on each floor.
Sorry, no pets
Yes, we've got 2 coin-operated washing machines and two tumble dryers. You need to use your own washing powder/liquid. The washing machine costs £2.00 and the tumble dryer costs £1 for every 30 minutes' worth of drying.
Just pop into the on-site office near the communal area. It's open Monday – Friday 8.30am – 1pm and 2pm – 4.30pm. Outside office hours, we have Subwardens on duty until midnight and we will give you information about them when you come to stay.
The rent differs depending on the size of the bedroom. The room category details are provided above along with the term-time licence agreement for information. Please make sure you are looking at the information for the correct Academic Year.
You will see the overwhelming majority of the rooms are classified as S2.
When you apply, you can let us know your room category preference but we cannot guarantee we will be able to offer you the type of room you asked for.
All rooms are furnished in the same way.
We take fire safety very seriously in our buildings and it is important that tenants do too.
We have 3 buildings and they all have slightly different procedure when a fire alarm is activated due to the layout of the building.
When you move into your room, please familiarise yourself with the fire alarm assembly points in your building.
If a fire alarm is activated in your flat/room immediately leave your flat/room and go directly to the fire assembly point.
Once a member of staff or a Fire Officer tells you that it is safe to return to your flat, you can then do so.
