About the Property
Halsmere Studios are located just a short walk to the popular and buzzing area of Camberwell. Packed with pubs, restaurants and shops, Camberwell offers some excellent options for eating out and enjoying the local nightlife.
During the daytime, Camberwell Green is close by and offers a lovely place for relaxing in the sunshine. In the opposite direction, Kennington Park leads to the River Thames, for some fantastic views over London's iconic river and skyline.
For sports fans, the Kia Oval Cricket Ground is also nearby, while those who prefer the bright lights of the West End can hop on a bus and be there in 20 minutes. The nearby Oval Tube station, on the Northern Line, ensures that other parts of London are also easily reachable.
Kings College London, Goldsmiths, University of the Arts and London South Bank University are all easily accessible from Halsmere Studios, making it the perfect accommodation choice for South London's students.

How will I receive my mail and parcel?
Depending on your building, you’ll either get mail delivered to your door or your own secure mailbox in reception. Getting a parcel? Your accommodation manager will hold it securely for you, and you can pick it up any time during office hours. Bring ID!
What if something is broken in my room?
Something broken? Faulty? Their onsite maintenance team will get right on it. Just let your accommodation manager know.
Is smoking allowed?
In the UK, you’re not allowed to smoke indoors, but there’ll be smoking areas outside your building.
Can my guests also stay with me?
Your friends and family are more than welcome to stay. But while they’re here, they’ll be your responsibility. So careful! If they cause damage to the property, or disruption for people living with you, then that’s on you.
Extensive stays (that’s longer than a week) aren’t allowed though – sorry.
What if my room is noisy?
NOOOIIIISSSE!!! It gets on people’s nerves fast, so please be considerate – especially between 11pm and 7am. If another residents complains about you or your guests making too much noise – especially if complaints are serious or persistent – we may have to ask you to leave the property.
Do I need to pay any extra bills other than my rent?
Electricity, gas, and 24-hour hot water. No need to worry about rising energy costs, They've got you covered.
Do I need to pay council tax?
As a student, you don’t have to pay. (But once your course has officially ended, you’ll no longer be classified as a student. So if you keep living in the UK after your course is over, you’ll have to start paying council tax.)
Will I get TV in my room?
A flat-screen, 32-inch TV, to be precise. With 40 channels. The majority of our apartments and studios have a TV in either the bedroom or shared common space – but do check with your accommodation manager to make sure.
Bringing your own TV? There’ll be a TV aerial point in your bedroom, so it’s easy to set up.
Remember: you’re responsible for getting your own TV Licence.
Is my room fully furnished?
You’ll always get a bed, desk, chair, bookshelves, wardrobe, and plenty of storage.
Do I need to clean my room by my own?
You’re responsible for cleaning your own room, and your shared kitchen if you’re living in an apartment. (Fair enough, right?!) But don’t worry, they take care of all other rooms, corridors and communal areas.
What is the behavior of the onsite staff?
Your accommodation manager is like an administrator, event planner, and buddy, all rolled into one. They will:
- Welcome you to your new home, give you your keys and show you around.
- Tell you whatever you need to know about the local area – the best shops, where your campus is, and much more.
- Arrange events for your whole building to enjoy (if you have any ideas, they’d love to hear them!).
- Keep your parcels safe, and email you when they arrive.
- Take your rent payments and answer any questions about booking or accounts.
- Arrange maintenance visits for your room.
- Be there. To talk, to listen, about anything that’s on your mind. If you want to arrange a quiet private chat, just ask.
Head to reception to find your accommodation manager – that’s their base during working hours. Even after hours though, there’ll always be a resident representative on site for anything you need.
