I was at Eversley last year and loved it.

A few of us who were there last year will be helping you all move in on the first day too.

Any questions just ask.

Last year we got our keys on the Sunday in the Westminster building on Chester Campus. There'll be people there to guide you where you need to go for that. :smile:

Hey what did you do for laundry facilities? since their isn't any in the accommodation.

For laundry there is a launderette on campus £2.20 for a wash and an extra pound for the washers. takes about 2 hours for the both, its pretty boring down there i must admit ha. You also have to be prepared to carry your washing there and back. However if you are lucky enough to have a sink in your room youll be able to hand wash in them. :smile:

Twin ensuite will probably mean that will end up sharing. I was sharing last year but luckily who I was sharing with i got on well with. Hopefully you also will be lucky and find you get on with them great. It isnt that bad honestly :biggrin:

It's also the cheapest of the rooms in Eversley so more money for yourself :gthumb:

Ahh wierd. I paid around 80p/w for my shared en suite last year. it was around 105p/w for single en suite with around 95 for single room.

That was all included semi catering though (10 meals a week, lunch and tea). But I've heard that Eversley is now self-catered, so may mean the prices are lower than they were last year.
