Talybont court or south?

Hey, will be going to cardiff uni september and am wondering which out of these two are the best accomodations if your opinion? I've ruled north out just because it doesn't appeal to me.

I've read court has a bigger kitchen and bigger rooms (and beds, desks) than south but is this by a really noticable difference? As it is an extra £10ish a week not sure it it be worth the extra £500 overall.

And when everyone says south is a lot more socialable what does this mean? surly people go out to socialise, do people mean just walking from room to room or something? :s-smilie:

Thanks for replies!

Both seem quite nice from what I've seen of them. Court especially has big kitchens with a social area in each flat. Not sure it's worth the extra cash over south though.

That's what I'm thinking, apparently the kitchen is often a very social place,yanno like drinking before going out. But what good is that if court isn't as social as south? :s-smilie:

Its halls if you want a night out you will find it but taly south is more socialable I am currently living in taly south (so im biased) taly court is less social. im currently in the smallest house - 21 people in total and in flats of 4 we have epic nights out the bed is fine and the desk is the same size as the bed , size wise ive had six people in my room for a few days, (someone slept on the desk ive head its comfy)

Thanks, I changed it around a few days ago on my form so now south is first court second xD I think I'll like the extra £10 saving a week and a mate said south's rooms were fine when he went to look :smile:

haha wow 6 people :P a comfy desk? I can't say I've ever tried any to test :/

My sister lived in south and its very sociable. Like the guy above she was in a flat with only 4 rooms. She did apply for court cos it looked nicer, but mostly postgrads live there.
