Intro
With a fantastic location, minutes from University, Abbeygate is a firm favourite for student accommodation in Chester.
Here students will find a fantastic collection of fully-equipped studios and en-suite rooms. Many of them are set in the original Grade II listed wing of the building, which is jam-packed with original features. This well-placed student living is just a 10-minute walk to the University of Chester and at a 15-minute stroll, the Kingsway Campus is only slightly further away. One is just two minutes from a gym and the city centre is a hop, skip and a jump away.
Students should choose the student accommodation in the size that suits them and set up home with their own roomy work area, small double bed and en-suite shower room. Go for a studio and add into the mix a well-equipped kitchen area, with breakfast bar. Studios are great for couples, as prices are per room not per person! Or, if theyre looking for shared living on a bigger scale head for the kitchen and living spaces that accompany their en-suite rooms.
