At a guess I'd say there's about 599 other people going to be living in them.:p:

You'll prob find others in them on the forum at the Broadgate website in my sig.

I wouldn't worry if I were you, I'm sure you're not the only one in your situation.

Yah im also in new studio, Larches. Im a bit worried about the anti-social thing too, but im sure it'll be fine if we go out enough or leave the door open. Im hoping the first week of a Law degree includes defences for Indecent Exposure :wink:

simple this is, just make sure you head to the bar every night! Its well within stumbling distance from the new blocks, so there's no excuse freshers!

I'm really hoping I can transfer from my ensuite in Hugh Stewart to an ensuite studio in Broadgate Park...

Why?

They didn't provide me with halal food as they promised, which I checked and double-checked to confirm it, and I just didn't like the environment I was in... Prefer the complete self-sufficiency the ensuite studio provides me with...Anyways, have moved to Broadgate already...
how you finding it?

I absolutely love it. It's really like having my own apartment. I can eat anytime I want, anything I want, I don't have to share anything. It's really great! Plus, all my friends are in Broadgate Park, so that's pretty cool.
the bathroom/toilet thing sucks...that's the only let down about broadgate if not they're cool :biggrin:

Not really... there's a free hopper bus that goes from the West entrance (opposite Broadgate) every 10 mins or so direct to Jubilee Campus.

Im in a new ensuite studio, Redwoods, and I couldnt have hoped for anything better. Brand new apartments, your own bathroom, altho it is a bit cramped so the water from the shower goes everywhere, and your own kitchen, altho the smell does get into everything but you have extractor fans and can leave the windows open. I know some people have moved out because they found it anti-social, but ive loved it, made brilliant friends with my flatmates and we all cook, shop, hang out and party together. The corridors are mixed sex unlike other housing and there is a good mix of people, not at all snobby. You have to do all your own cleaning but id rather have that than a cleaner going through my stuff, and the privacy is brilliant, you dont have wardens or anything, you can invite whoever you want and they can stay forever as no one checks!

erm, wrong.

Broadgate does have a Warden. His name is Steve Greedy.

It also has Tutors.

Their details can be found on the BGP website.
