Living in Loughborough as a student

Loughborough is a friendly market town located in Leicestershire, located close to Derby, Nottingham and East Midlands Airport. Loughborough University is located here with a student population of nearly 18,500. The town is most famous for the world’s largest bell foundry—John Taylor Bellfounders—which made bells for the Carillion War Memorial.

To house the 18,500 students, Loughborough has 15 student halls. Uni-managed halls offer self-catered option as well as full-board housing in a range of properties, ranging from brick two-storey houses to a large, residential tower. There is a great variety of rooms too, starting at small singles with shared sanitary facilities and standard rooms through to shared and single-occupancy en-suites.

Private halls, operated by a number of UK’s leading companies, typically offer en-suite rooms as a standard, with self-contained studios and larger rooms at the higher end of the price range. Attractive amenities located in and around private halls are without doubt a great benefit of choosing this type of accommodation.

Students who wish to move on from hall life often choose to rent a house or a flat with a larger group of 4 or more friends. Larger properties which can house groups like that benefit from lower per-tenant costs, as well as flexibility in furnishing and location—students hoping for a life in Loughborough’s bustling city centre, as well as those preferring a quieter, more suburban life are sure to find the right home. Flats and apartments are a popular choice too, especially for those looking to share with one friend or a partner. The advantage of these properties, usually located in central locations, lies in their close proximity to various attractive amenities, centres of social life such as pubs, cinemas or gyms. Be it flats, houses or apartments, this type of accommodation is usually managed by landlords or letting agents, many of whom have an excellent reputation for catering to students’ needs and wants.
