Lancaster University Accommodation

My closet is relatively big, with 6 shelves, hanger space and a mirror on the back of the door.

But I think most people store their suitcases etc. in the space underneath the mattress, there's a lot of room under there.

How easy is it to secure campus accommodation for the second and third years?

Is all the accommodation in good condition? Like, are there any bug infestations, damp, etc.

And which college is the best for someone who's doing Management and which one is the quietest?

All accommodation is in great condition, they've spent a lot of money upgrading it all in recent years. The only complaints I've heard of are people in Bowland, which is still a little lacking in it's standard. Regards to other problems, we also have an amazing repair service on campus - I've had two things break in my room, sent an online report about it and the next day someone came and fixed it. You can report everything on there, and any problems they'll deal with straight away.
For the Management school it is definitely Grizedale, which I'm in. It's right next to the Mangement and Marketing Schools, and we have a lot of people doing the courses - they also use the George Fox Lecture Halls, which is next to Grizedale as well. Most houses have at least one person doing Management in Grizedale!
And quietest would have to be one of the South-West Campus Colleges - Lonsdale or Cartmel, I would say - but I'm not as knowledgeable on those ones, sorry!

- I could upload a certain one if you don't have access to Facebook and requested it (:

Thanks for the reply, I was kinda nervous about the accommodation after reading about the state of other university's accommodation. I don't have Facebook but I can still see the pictures, the accommodation looks great.

Is Cartmel and Lonsdale within walking distance to the Management school?

How many to a flat at County?

hey guys,
this might be a strange question but i just wanted to know if the accommodation is warm enough? It seems like I am the person who is always freezing so would like to find out if it is comfortable to live in halls.

And one more thing, did a lot of you, already studying at Lancaster, manage to stay in halls for the rest of their course? (not only 1st year)

The halls are generally an okay temperature, but it never hurts to bring an extra blanket or something just incase.

When I was there, loads of my friends [and indeed myself] stayed on campus for all three years. Probably at least 50% of the people I mixed with did. But, I think that is becoming rarer now, as the demand for on campus accommodation grows with more freshers each year [thus reducing the number of rooms available to returners]. It is always a possibility, but it isn't something you can rely on. It shouldn't be a problem though. Chancellor's in town is returners uni-owned accommodation and the city is friendly enough should you live out properly.

Also Lanc Uni has won the best uni accommodation for the past 3 years in a row . With imperial just jogging behind, think about how many universities there are in the UK, they must be the best.

Personally Grizedale is the best, ill be applying there for my first choice within 1-2 days of the accommodation application opening.

I might consider doing management as a minor but idk :/, I've firmed for Comp Sci Masters integrated (4 years).

Btw how do you pronounce Grizedale?

Is it:
1. Gry-ze-dail
2. Griii-ze-dail
