Storage space at Grey College, Durham

Hi!

Super excited that I'm going to be a fresher at Grey's in a few weeks! I'm looking for suitcases at the moment but the size is dependent on how much storage space there is in the rooms - does anyone know how much space there is under the beds? Could you fit a large suitcase (like 80cm) under it?
I've seen a couple photos of the rooms but am still not clear...

Thank you so much!!

Hello!

Unfortunately it really does depend on which room you get assigned in your college and most colleges try not to inform students which room they have before they arrive (to keep things fair). However, I am sure there will be space somewhere in your room to keep your bags as most students do bring large suitcases to move in :smile:

Hope this helps!

This is the first I am hearing of not knowing our rooms before we move in, so that's good to know. Do Durham ever tell you who is in your flat/corridor before move in?

Generally, no however again it might be different from college to college and year to year :smile:
