Best halls for mature nursing student in Cardiff?

I'm due to start my nursing degree in Cardiff in September and wondering what halls would best suit me. I'm 27 so a bit concerned of my age but i do like to socialise so would like a happy medium. I've applied for Liberty so far but any comments would be great :smile:
Hey!! I'm a mature student too, doing dental hygiene in September! Are you still going into halls? I have chosen to go into private accommodation in cathays!! Slightly worried now as I feel I may be a bit out of the loop 😁 it's hard to know what to go for x

Forest of Dean! It's not a bad drive though. I can't believe how soon it is. I've just tried doing the enrolment and messed it up on the finance bit :frown: I have to wait for them to contact me now

Oh my days I'm so glad it wasn't just me!!! It was exactly the same thing that I got confused on. They said they would contact me? I'll ring them tomorrow. Is the number easy to find?
Also do you know if anyone has set up a facebook page or anything to get an opportunity to chat to others?
