When you start looking for student accommodation in Sheffield, there are a few things to consider. It can be easy to go with something just because it’s cheap. However, have you considered the area it’s in, the distance from university, travel to shops and so on?

Location

The location of your student housing is so important. One of the last things you want to do is live too far away from university, potential job placements and local shops. University is expensive enough without having to pay lots of extra travel costs on top.

Check out the social activities in the area too, whether will you be able to a meet a lot of friends there and whether it’s in an area that is popular with students.
In Sheffield for example the main student areas are Ecclesall, Hunters Bar, Broomhill and Crookes.

Security

It’s also important that the area you chose to live in is safe. Always read reviews and articles about the area that you are thinking of moving in to. It will make you feel safer and give your family reassurance that you’ll be safe when away from home.
Also, get the advice from a long-established letting agent who has experience of the local areas.

Downtime

Around 70% of students claim that having communal facilities are an important factor in student housing. Communal areas are a great way to make new friends and unwind after a busy day. All our properties have communal areas along with free unlimited Wi-Fi and a lot more.

We even have some properties that are pet friendly and our properties range from 1-7 bedrooms.
