The Student Room Group
All I know about Ashburne, is that they called it Virgin Megastore, and apparently it had REALLY bad catered food (there's even a facebook group dedicated to this!)

I wasn't aware that it's been altered from a girls only hall though, so I imagine it won't be any different to Sheavyn house, which is right next to OP, so I imagine you'll be fine :smile:

Are you a guy? My girlfriend applied and got in there. Shes says it looks very nice and some of the rooms are very big. It seems to get a bad rep because its girls only or at least was. She wanted to go there to avoid rowdy lads lol.

Sorry I never said, but yep I'm a guy. Apparently they've changed at least one of the wards into mixed sexes. The larger rooms sound nice, and it looks like it's in a great area so i guess i can't complain too much :smile:
Heyy. I've been placed in Ashburne Halls too but infact wanted Sheavyn because I didnt really want catered!! But O well. I hope the food isnt as disgusting as people have been making out.. :frown: lol. Do you have a larger room or standard then?/ I'm in WB.1.03 xxxx

Hi, don't know whether you still go on here but I thought I'd give it a go! I am starting in September and am in WB.1.14 - so not far from where you stayed. Just wondering if you could tell me a bit about what the room is like/ any pics you have - super excited haha!
