Living in Canterbury as a student

Serving as the seat of three universities in England’s South-East—University of Kent, Canterbury Christ Church University, and University for the Creative Arts— Canterbury is home to about 31,000 students. First established in prehistoric times, Canterbury’s history includes the Roman invasion, settlement of St Augustine, or Chaucer’s pilgrimage—the inspiration for his Canterbury Tales.

Students make up the largest proportion of residents of the city in the whole of England, with one in five studying at one of the three universities. This makes Canterbury a particularly attractive destination for those hoping to experience the social and academic life of a university to the fullest.

Students have access to 24 halls of residence altogether, some of which are university-owned. University halls have a variety of rooms on offer, including self and part-catered, as well as full board. There is also a fair selection of private halls from UK’s leading provides. Canterbury’s private halls offer fantastic access to city’s amenities, with students given a variety of options to choose from. Whether you prefer a self-contained studio, or a room within a flat, private halls are sure to provide the new student with what they need. Those preferring life outside of student accommodation will find a good range of other options too.

Sharing with friends is always a popular choice with students of Canterbury’s universities. Those who already tasted life in halls and wish to make their way into more traditional tenancies often choose to move in with a larger group of 4 or more friends. Canterbury is sure to offer a choice of flats and houses for students to choose from, conveniently located in the city centre or nearby. This type of accommodation, often aimed at the large cohort of students, is usually managed by landlords and letting agents, many of which have excellent reputation and know what students need and want.

Our online guides will provide you with a wide array of valuable information about the city and the area. With over 20 years of experience in helping students find the perfect place to live, accommodationforstudents.com is the best place to start the search for your dream university accommodation. We list a good choice of rooms, flats and houses to choose from. Our online search tools allow you to contact the accommodation providers directly, or you can choose to get in touch with our team to get additional support—we are always happy to help!
