The only thing wrong with Park Wood is that it takes 15mins to walk to campus.

Hi all,

I applied to Park Wood I think but didn't ask for an ensuite - is it true that not all rooms have sinks? Do you reckon I'd be better off asking to change to an ensuite as I've been told by people that it can be really bad sharing bathrooms with someone you don't necessarily get on with or who is disgustingly hairy and never cleans up! I've been a chalet girl for the last year so I should know! Also, I haven't visited - what's the uni like? Is anyone doing English & American Literature & Creative Writing?

Standard rooms are tiny and rank. Walls proper thin. Ensuite self-catered is a rip-off, I should know, I live there.

^ Nah you will find first years everywhere apart from in Tyler Court A and the Residences. Second years are encouraged to move out and any living on campus will have taken emergency accommodation.

Nightlife = loads of pubs, including five bars on campus, but only two 'proper' clubs - however, a lot of places are around to go and dance. You won't get bored!
Don't know about restaurants but there is a very good (imho) Chinese takeaway place near Westgate called Chop Chop - yummy!

Chinese restaraunt called Super Noodles and it's by far the nicest chinese restaraunt I have been to, very large portions and a nice price for students. You can get something like sweet and sour chicken for about £5. What more can you ask for! Theres an al you can eat chinese in Canterbury and I haven't been yet because ive heard it's expensive and I've then taken friend sto Super noodles and they wished they never went to the all you can eat chinese.

Keynes is a thiefs paradise - security is non-existant at Keynes. So much food has been stolen.
