Do Warwick students ever live in Kenilworth?

Well i hear second year students move out to coventry and Spa, but why not kenilworth? It's a while since i've been around this neck of the woods, but the place seems alot closer than Spa and also alot nicer. Any thoughts?

If you can afford it (or you are able to wait till the last minute and rent from a non-student oriented agent or private letter) then it's nice place to live. I do think I would miss the lively atmosphere of Leamington though.

Buses- 1/2 per hour instead of loads per hour from leam/cov is the main reasoning tbh.

Kenilworth is nice though, if I end up in that area for work i'll likely live there.

I had a friend who lived there in her second year. She had a car which is pretty important as buses are less regular, but she said it was a bit quiet compared to the student bases of Leam and Cov...

To me kenilworth seems a somewhat Postgrad area to live. If you wish to be in the thick of it, I suggest leamington or cov.

I really wouldnt live there... Bus service very very poor, nothing much to do because hardly any students around and well its a general pain because there's nothing on your doorstep. You have to use public transport to get anywhere before you do anything because everythings either on campus, in cov or in leam. And getting back after a night out? Hmmm not nice to think about.

Don't do it!!!!
