If you used Clearing in 2024, how did you find it?

Whitworth Park

Hello,

I got an offer two days ago in Whitworth Park. I would be grateful if someone could answer these questions for me:
1. How many students share each bathroom?
2. What is the situation regarding washing and ironing of clothes; i.e. How many students share a washing machine? and can you bring your own ironing machine?
3. Regarding kitchens, there is one for each floor? or it's central for the building?
4. Is it generally clean?

Thank you :smile:

HEY!! I stayed in Whitworth Park Garstang House last year. I didn’t apply there and thought it was the end of the world when I got given it as it looks like a dump and shared bathroooommm 😮 BUT I promise it’s not that bad and I actually grew to love it. I hope you have the best time ever at whitty p 🫶 Right let me answer your questions…

In my flat there were 8 of us sharing 1 bathroom which had 2 toilet cubicles 2 shower cubicles then 4 sinks. And honestly it’s rare your ever in the bathroom at the same time as anyone.

It’s circuit laundry so there’s a massive room up in grove house (there’s also a bar there and a gym) with lots of washing machines and dryers for everyone. Also each flat gets given an ironing board and an iron so no need to bring one unless you really want your own

There’s one kitchen per flat. But the layouts are really weird so for example my flat there’s upstairs which has 3 rooms then downstairs which had 6 rooms a living room + bathroom + kitchen.

I found it to be very clean. Cleaners come twice a week to clean your living room, bathroom and kitchen which was great. Just pray you get put with good clean flatmates then you’re sorted 👍
