University of Gloucestershire, Pittville Student Village

Great accommodation with gym, study space, bar, faith space and shop

A very well set up student village. Accommodation also good. An excellent place to study.

I don't personally live here although my friend does, and having seen it a few times I would struggle to fault much. It's good accommodation for the price, en suite rooms.

Reviewing based on a townhouse I rented from them during the summer.

+ Some of the highest quality and most spacious student accomodation I've been to so far
+ Featured three fridges, a lot of storage space and two fully featured ovens - so plenty for the 12 students that could fit in my building without running into each others' stuff. Also a lot of (actually comfortable) sitting space and even a TV in the living area
+ Properties are generally well-looked after (can't say the same about a lot of other student accomodation)

- In the middle of nowhere - town is much further away from other parts of UoG and there are no convenience stores nearby except a small Park Store.
- Poor ventilation: The windows only open a very small amount (there are no child-locks, that is just the limit to which they open), causing the room to get hot even in the colder months.

I am having a very nice and interesting experience studying Psychology (Masters) at the University of Gloucestershire.

A brilliant place to study

Constant screaming, security does nothing.
Fire alarms trigger on the daily.
You've had something stolen? Security does nothing, claims it's your fault.

Looks like a great living area, but we only dropped off someone at the living quarters
