hiya, i havent been either, but I'v been put in block D. Wasn't my first choice, but it looks like a really nice place. 1 minus on the distance from the uni, but what's a little bus journey here n there??? Was gutted when I didnt get my first choice, but should be good there i guess. Cant wait:biggrin:

Check your junk folder, loads of emails have been stuck there. Also I think if it was your insurance choice it takes a bit longer :| x

Some of Bardon's rooms are massive. I mean disgustingly big, with a double bed in the middle looking lost. The girls I know who had the big rooms had to go out and buy inflatable sofas and lamps just to fill the area in. The majority of rooms there are doubles and big (but not all). They also have a common room so it has a nice communal feel. That said though, it can feel a bit cut off from the rest of Oxley.
got block C also, room 1.12. really looking forward to this year, was hoping for Devonshire but liked Oxley. And we have a free gym :smile:
i'm block E! :biggrin:

I might have been wrong that the majority were doubles, but I saw inside 4 bedrooms, 3 of which had doubles. I think that it depends which floor you're on :smile:

Depends whether you're in the house or ensuite, the ensuite's are an average size for 5 people, but the house's cater for about 10 people don't they? There's a seating area in the big ones.
Overall, they're just uni kitchens, the same as the rest.
