first year accommodation

Do you happen to know anything about Beaumont House?

Hi! I've been allocated Stamford Houses (not the halls it's the converted houses) but I have never seen the inside of one or any photos:/ any ideas about what I can expect? Thanks!

Yeah I've never actually been inside Beamount but I know plenty of people there and I've seen the outside and stuff, never heard bad things about the rooms just it can get annoying sharing bathrooms as you don't get an ensuite, but that's to be expected. Very sociable housing on the whole though!



I'm not too sure I know entirely what you mean by stamford houses, they all tend to have their own individual name, do you know which one you have been allocated exactly?

They've literally given me zero information I've tried googling it but no results. Do you know what the converted housing is like or the vibes in oadby in general?

Thanks so much I'm coming from Canada so it isn't always the easiest to find information.

I'm thinking of applying to City Halls but i'm really scared that there will be no undergraduates there and the social life will be terrible. Does anyone know whether I'm making the wrong decision

Whats the atmosphere like at John Foster halls anyone know?

hi I have been offered Clivedon house. Anyone know any info much about it, what they think of it, or anything? i found old threads but obviously things might've changed since then. Like i put my preferred as Single gender not mixed. Anyone know which one Clivedon is?? thanks..

Really good, jofo is known to be the most sociable housing, whatever you're looking for in student halls jofo probably has it. You'll love it there I'm sure.

They opened on monday! can only apply if Leicester is your firm

Don't be sorry about the questions, I'm happy to help!
I'm in GMS, Bowder court.
The John Foster accommodation is great and seems to be the most desirable in the student village, it is about the same price as mine (joint most expensive I believe) but people say the kitchens in Bowder court are much nice than JoFo. JoFo is not at all socially detached, the whole place is linked and we have parties with people from all over the place quite a lot if I'm honest. It is kind of annoying having to get the bus every day to get to lectures but Oadby is a lovely place to live and is quite refreshing compared to city living. I do like living here, the RAs put on events everyday and the village hub is probably the best part of the student village, extremely cheap drinks, pool table and big screen TV, what more can you ask for?!

I hope this answers your questions and please don't hesitate to ask more
