It's a pretty little place which is near the Disbury village and very close to the shopping areas. This residence provides accommodation for three single postgraduates and three married couples with up to one child. Accommodation is in three separate locations; The White House, which has three self catering flats; The Lodge, a small detached house suitable for a married couple; and The Cottage, which has a lounge/dining room and a library room. Internet facilities are available with TV and phone services. What more? It has 8 rooms and costs as much as £122 per week. Not bad for this cute cottage looking place, with all the modern facilities. So if you like the country side but still want to be near the city life, this wouldn't be a bad place to pick.

Broomcroft House, one of the postgraduate and family halls for students of The University of…read moreManchester, is in many ways its nicest one. Situated in the beautiful village of Didsbury, it has a far more middle class location that do its counterpart undergraduate halls in Fallowfield. Its got a beautiful garden and green area and its really more like a gorgeous holiday retreat than university accommodation! Of course it doesnt have the fun factor of Fallowfield and the City Centre, and its not a hub of student fun, but if you're a family or older student then you probably wont want this anyway. In terms of the luxury of the place, its probably the best on offer. Its self-catering as well so you don't have to eat university grub, and though its furnished, you provide all your own utensils and that kind of thing, so it can really be made into a family home. Central heating and that is included in the weekly price so really its quite cheap accommodation and you're unlikely to get anything like this kind of quality housing, location and amenities for the price elsewhere. However, its only got eight rooms in the whole complex, so its not easy to get a place here. You'd better get on it if you're interested.

I currently live in Whitworth Park and I really enjoy it. When i first got here i did think why…read moredid I not choose Fallowfield, but in the long run I'm really glad I live here. All the complaints the others put down about Whitworth Park are the things I like- there are loads of international students and english ones to and Ive ended up with friends from all over the world and country. My friends that live in Fallowfield seem to have only made friends with people from the same place and backround as them. It is pretty peaceful in Whitworth at exam time but there are also great parties and bbqs now the summer is here. There is lots of space to hangout and a great gym and everyone is really friendly. The staff here are also really lovely and actually like the students. The best thing for me is I feel like i am living in Manchester- not in Fallowfields which seems really far out of whats going on. Its great being close to Curry Mile and I go there a lot for food and sheesha. There are great bars nearby- like Big Hand, gigs every night at teh Academy and as a woman I have never felt unsafe, even walking back alone after a night out. the best thing is you can walk into town easily, get a bus or get a taxi so living here doesnt cost a fortune. Whitworth Park is great if you are on a budget as its the cheapest- and because of this you avoid having to live with spoilt brats. There is a real mix of interesting people here. Its good for making you go into Uni as it is 2minutes away and at exam periods because the library is so close. Its also good for nightlife as it is cheap to get back from clubs and pubs (£5/6 in a taxi from the center). Lidls is a god send- you can live like a king on a students budget from there- the quality and price is better then asda or sainsburys- £8 for a bottle of rum! Room sizes are luck of the draw- there are small rooms, medium (good) size rooms and really large rooms- but everyone pays the same price. There is the art gallery and museum to take your mum to when she comes to visit. SOme flats in whitworth are more sociable than others due to their location, but in the end its up to you to make friends rather than where you live. Also- famous people lived here like Engels (obviously not in these halls but on the street they were built on) so hopefully some of that intelligence will rub off on me...

When I first looked upon this place the huge…read moreslanting buildings facsinated me to no extent and I was really vey excited to start living here! It is a great little area with many buildings togther, all 3 storeys and they even have a bar, a gym and a squash court. The rooms- If you're lucky you may get a lovely big room with big windows, but if you're the unfortunate type like me, you may end up with a really small space, more like a little store room and be not so thrilled to have people over due to obvious space constraints! But this place is amazing according to convinience! Minutes from university buildings, you can manage getting up at 8:45 for a 9 am lecture and still make it! McD's, Subway, Greggs and Mc Colls all just under the Halls. It makes you a little spoilt definitely, though I never complained! The Grovel is probably the cheapest bar I've ever been to and it has a friendly atmosphere and a great place to make friends!

I'm going to stick to my guns and say that Owens Park is still the best university hall. I think…read moreits definitely the centre of Fallowfield, which is in turn he centre of Manchester student life. However, I'm going to put Sheavyn House in at number 2, at the expense of Oak House. The reason for this is that whilst Oak House is just a slightly worse version of Owens Park, Sheavyn is good for different reasons. First and foremost, it is in Fallowfield. This is the most important factor, as its literally where all the young foolish student fun happens, and what is the point of university without that? Whereas Owens Park is quite grim, Sheavyn is a pretty little halls. Owens Park smells of old beer and horrible food from the previous night, whereas as Sheavyn has trees and grass. Its just at the edge of Fallowfield, making it right there where the fun is to be found, but whereas at OP there's no getting away from it, Sheavyn is in its own large peaceful ground, making quiet rest or study a nice alternative to the raucous shenanigans of Fallowfield proper.

It consists of 11 floors with 15 rooms on each floor, so that's a lot of freinds you would be making on a single floor! Each room is washbasin equipped and the bathroom is shared. There is a kitchen and common area on each floor. They have all facilities like a laundrette, internet and phone lines. A great hall to be at and is always very very lively!

I have lived in Victoria Halls in Leicester for the 2010/2011 University year and i would not…read morerecommend it to anyone. For a start it is built 10 meters from a road that a majority of ambulances in Leicester has to travel down. This means at least 3-4 incredibly loud sirens every hour, often more. The caretakers, all but one, are rude, unreasonable and generally a massive pain. Fine's will start almost immediately for pathetic reasons that the caretakers can decide on the spot. For example my flat mate was playing music out of his laptop, therefore it was definitely quiet. One of the caretakers walked past the front door to our flat, could hear it in the corridor, and the next morning my flatmate received a £15 fine. The internet provider, over which we get no choice, is a complete rip off and i believe in the 2011/2012 uni year it is even more the care. This year i had to pay £150 for 4MB internet connection(Ethernet only). Next year this internet is included in the price however the increased room price means your effectively paying £420 for your internet. (rooms are £10 more a week and it's a 42 week contract). When you exit our building there's a lovely graveyard facing you, and a lot of peoples windows show a wonderful view of a wall. I have friends in almost every other halls of residence here and I believe them all to be better than Victoria in almost every way.

I completed my undergrad degree at Greenwich in London and was totally underwhelmed by the…read moreuniversity experience. I wasn't sure what to do next until my friend (and future housemate) asked me to drive him up to Staffordshire University so he could have a look around for his degree. We popped along for an open day and from that point on I never looked back. The reception I got on the open day from the student ambassadors was great. They were very talkative, very friendly and spoke highly of the university. Already, Staffs was one up on Greenwich. Campus wise I was impressed with the student union facilities. The LRV (main nightclub venue) was huge and the Ember Lounge (bar) was also very cozy and atmospheric. Once enrolled on my course I spent many a great night in these venues watching stand up comedy, music and even things like alternative jazz & poetry nights. Facility wise I was bowled over too! At Greenwich I had to put up with inferior media facilities but Staffs had the lot. Industry standard cameras and plenty of them, loads of edit suites so you would have no problem actually getting to use the equipment. If I was to progress in the industry I knew I had to study somewhere like this! I was able to use the equipment whenever I wanted and as a result I now have a really great attention grabbing show reel which has helped me get into the industry. Social wise there was a lot on offer too with nearly 70 different clubs to join. Everything from football/rugby to things like L.A.R.Ping and Ultimate Frisbee. As a result of this I made so many friends that even after my MA I stayed in Stoke to be around the university environment. What is remarkable is that before I came to Staffs I really lacked confidence but I found meeting new people so easy here. Other impressive attributes are the university's own cinema, a 24 hour library, a forensics crime scene house, a smoothie bar and a broadcast studio with TV cameras and radio broadcast rooms. Since finishing my MA here I have taken part in a university based scheme which gives graduates the chance to start thier own business and as of September I will be running my own production company. Living wise Stoke is one of the cheapest places in the country. You get far more for your money here and rent is very cheap. To get ahead in your chosen industry I would highly reccommend Staffs.

I live in Pelsall and when I decided to go to Staffordshire University but the Stoke-on-Trent…read morecampus I couldn't drive and with the commute on the train over an hour, the best choice was for me to go and live at university. Now to get onto the biology course I wanted to do I had to do a two week bridging course so lived at the university for the duration. I lived in the universities housing residence which I loved. There was room enough for five people and the people who I met were fantastic. We all got along apart from with one person who kept themselves to themselves and it was nice being only a few of us as we managed to bond quickly. When I applied to go to university the year later I wanted to stay in these houses as I loved the fact there would only be a few people and the bedrooms were quite big and the living area was lovely. Now I was shocked when I was told a week before I was due to start that I was going to be put in halls because they had made a mistake with my account and all of the houses were full. Like every person about to move into halls I was excited but terrified at the same time and asked myself all the familiar questions. What if they are all horrible? What if I don't get on with them at all? Will my food get stolen? Are they secure? Will it be with all girls or mixed? What floor will I be on? How many toilets will there be? How many showers will there be? Now I will tell all prospective students now just what the halls are like and exactly what to expect from your stay from my personal experiences. - What are they like? The halls of residence at Staffordshire University are pretty much like the majority of universities. They are split into floors and on each floor there is room for around twelve people to live. Everybody has their individual rooms and then there is a shared kitchen and bathroom. Some halls will have a separate living area but for us we just had the kitchen. The rooms on a floor are linked by a corridor and then doors to get outside. The halls that I stayed in had three floors and were colour coded. I stayed in the Royal Doulton halls yellow which was the middle floor. You had to have a key to get into the doors leading into the halls from the outside and then another key to get onto your floor. You then had an individual key to get into your own room. The halls I stayed at were extremely clean and the same goes for other halls I have visited. Remember before the new year of university starts and all of the freshers start, the cleaners will have been in the halls and tidied making sure everything is spick and span for when you move in so you don't have to worry about the cleanliness of the place. Now the one thing you do have to expect is that the rooms are sometimes very small. My room literally had enough room for a single bed, a very small desk and a small wardrobe and not much more room to move. Nevertheless don't worry as although it looks like you can't swing a cat in there, it is extremely liveable and we still managed to get about 6 people in there to watch a film, not exactly comfortably but we coped. The bathrooms were fine and were cleaned by the university cleaner every day. We had four toilets, three showers and a bath and every one of them had locks on the door so you didn't have to worry about anybody walking in on you. The kitchen area was where we spent the majority of our time. There were two ovens, a microwave, fridge, 2 fridge/freezers, a kettle, a toaster and then enough cupboards for everybody to have one each. The cupboards were made with the ability to padlock them so you could keep your food safe. In the middle of the kitchen was a large circular table with seats around it so that everybody could sit down and socialise. The kitchen was also cleaned daily by the cleaner but you do have to do your own washing up. - What is it like living with all of these people? Honestly it is scary at first but I can tell you that after a couple of days you will feel much better. I am not ashamed to say that I cried when my parents and sister left me at university and I had to go and meet all of these people but a few hours later and I was fine. When you first move into the halls it is freshers week so basically there are hundreds of people feeling just like you do and just want to make friends. Within my halls we had a warden for every coloured hall and luckily enough ours was living on our floor with us. It is there job as a warden to make sure everybody gets settled in as well as possible and usually they will have something organised for the first night when everybody gets there. We were there and we were told that for our first night at university we were going to be taken to the student union for the evening. Now going out drinking and dancing is the one of the best ways to loosen up and get to know people. We went there had a few drinks and by the time we had got back that evening we were all chatting and
