    Please help? Where to live in Winton?
    I'm getting a flat with my partner as we're going to AUCB this September.
    Where would you recommend a flat? Which areas are nice/safe?
    We had a look around Charminster estate agents but don't have much clue where to move to...
    Is most of Winton nice? Do most students live there? We want to live near to the Uni and not in the centre of Bournemouth as my boyfriend needs to travel to Southampton east day to his Uni!

    Any help would be great as right now we are clueless and have no idea where to live!

    Hey,

    I've recently finished my first year at Bournemouth Uni and I was put into a unilet in Charminster. I definitely don't recommend moving to Charminster as it is out of the way of both Uni and any decent shops.

    Winton is definitely the perfect place as you have a high street with shops ranging from Subway to New Look. It's basically the perfect Student high street! Plus Winton is the place where pretty much all students live because it's around a 10 minute walk to both AUCB and Bournemouth Uni (:

    I hope this helps you!

    Hannah
