Claycroft, Lakeside or what?

What is the best accommodation for first year undergraduates in general?
And which ones have 39 weeks let...? Is Lakeside as off as people say? :wink:

I´m moving to the UK from Sweden but I want to meet british people and not just hang with my own people so to speak...

This should really be in the accomodation thread. That's why it was started - so there wouldn't be a seperate thread by every person asking where to choose.

Anyway, try looking on the Warwick website to see the let for each accomodation :smile:

Claycroft is way better than Lakeside, we just have nice ducks here in our lake, while lakeside have geese that make a lot of noise. Besides Claycroft is right by central campus, about 5 min from the library/humanities/physics concourse and 4 min from Tesco.

I chose Claycroft 1st, Lakeside 2nd for the reason of being close to the maths/stats building and Sherman told me that its close to tesco for food shopping. :P Ya, having ducks would be nice, geeses are aggressive!!!

Okey- is there any other accommodation you would recommend (I would prefer 39 weeks let cause im from Sweden but from what I hear you get to put your stuff somewhere on campus...?
Is there somewhere special where most first years live or is it just spread around?

Rootes (plus Benefactors?) , Jack Martin, Arthur Vick and I think Whitefields/Cryfield are all first yr only residences.

Someone correct me if I'm wrong

I had Tocil 1st, Calycroft 2nd and Lakeside 3rd, as I really wanted 39 weeks let.

Claycroft, Lakeside or what?
