Thanks! Just incase if I decide to firm Bath, I would still like to have Norwood or Westwood as an option 
hm i think so. But they may remove it when there is high demand. So do it ASAP

Its worth it!!! Yeah but that's an extra £380 for the year. That's 10 nights out or a whole load of train and bus tickets or 30 bottles of vodka or a takeaway once a week or extra treats on your weekly shopping or a few trips to london or money toward a summer holiday or even just £380 saved for next year. It adds up lol.

Takeaway reminds me Can I order food on campus to my room...as in can I order dominoes to my doorstep???? If not that If I supposingly order a PS3 game online can they deliver it to my room directly or is it deposited in the lobby and I pick it up from there???

Not sure. Obviously you can order things by post and takeaways to be delivered but I would assume it depends on the set up of the actual accommodation building on whether it is sent to the lobby where you have to pick it up or it is brought straight to your room. I would imagine the smaller accommodation builds are similar to flats there there is no lobby, just a front door with some buzzers for each individual flat. Whereas in the larger places there will be a lobby entrance where your post is delivered etc.
But I'm not 100%, you'd have to ask a current student.

Norwood house is an excellent choice for accommodation, I think it's the only hall that has a lounge that overlooks the Parade and it's very social too. But if you want to go for Woodland Court, I'm sure a quick phonecall/email will sort things out. They're unbelievably efficient!

Where's this new osborne house? It doesn't seem to be on the map and there is only one picture of the outside of it.
That does seem weird, tried looking on their website and it just redirects you to Norwood parade when you want to see a picture of it.
On the Bath website it says: Osborne House offers a variety of accommodation, including several self-contained studios.
It's located on the edge of campus five minutes walk from the library.
Edit: It's just outside their campus according to this map

Yeah, most of the people I talked to said that it didn't really bother them in the end, so I'm sure you'll be fine

Takeaways you have to pick up from the bus stop and any online orders go to the mail room and then you have to go there to collect it.

just been looking at the accommodation pictures and i just realized that the closets are so small! I'm never going to be able to fit all my clothes in. Can we bring in extra furniture? like the portable kind.
oh and is there storage space outside of the room? where do you guys keep your luggage?
PS: lol i never realized the colour of the walls before, much less considered it a factor to consider

There isn't a rule against it but you'd be lucky to have space to move in extra furniture! There isn't storage space outside of rooms. You have to hope your suitcase will fit under your bed.

btw can you apply for Brendon court but want it to be self-catered? I mean is there an option or if you choose brendon court then it must be catered?
The catered option is new this year but you can still pick non-catered for Brendon Court
