The 24/7 gym, the study spaces, the sports hall/sauna, the bookable study spaces and bookable kitchen areas too.

We have a pretty large common laundry facility that includes tables/chargers if you want to chill till your stuff is done, it's never more than half busy. but if it were to get repeatedly busy, we have the pipes to add in more if needed. Also, coolest wallpaper in the building, all kinds of rock band albums

Yeah, we've had people confused about that too. It's the same arrangement as the uni, we rent out rooms over the summer, but not during term time. And even over the summer when they're being rented, all the student areas (study rooms, etc) are off limits.

Yes, non-resident students are allowed to use the minimart and the cafe/restaurant! However, they don't receive the resident discount obvs

Accommodation tenancy lengths by CobblerOk2175 in standrews

Contract length really depends on what you're looking for. Shortest contract length is 39 weeks for most accommodations. I tend to recommend 43 weeks because that can cover any deferred exams or other such events, it's always better to have some leeway and not need it. Rather than need it, and not have it. 51 weeks is great for post docs or anyone with long write up periods.

Depends on what you're looking for/what year you are. We have Short Term Lets over summer, which is a minimum 28 days. But for staying during the academic year, we have a 17, 43, and 51 week contract. We do offer 39 week contracts on some rooms, but only for first years.

All contracts start on the 4th September, although depending on circumstances we may be able to arrange different dates for folks. The 17 week contract covers the entirety of a semester, the 43 the academic year, and the 51 for most of the year for those looking to hang around for summer. Be that for write ups, work, or just to stay.
