Frequently Asked Questions

Are sites secure?

Each site is covered by CCTV and has onsite security staff, with staff present 24 hours a day. There is also a digital entry system at each building. You should not allow people to ‘tailgate’ – that is, hold the door open for people behind you as you enter.

Can I book if I'm under 18?

Management does not accept parental responsibility for occupiers under the age of 18.

They require that all tenants living at one of their properties in England and Wales to be over the age of 17 during the academic year booked to live at management, and tenants living in their Scottish properties to be age 16 or over.

Exceptions to this rule are available in selected cases through prior arrangement. If in doubt, please contact your preferred management site and the team will be able to advise you.

Can I bring a tv?

If you want to bring a TV, check that your room has a TV point and don’t bring one larger than 21”. You can’t mount your TV on the wall, so make sure it’s free-standing. While all TVs provided by management in communal areas accessed by all residents are covered by a TV Licence, you will need to buy your own licence if you bring your own TV or if there is one already in your room or shared kitchen & living area. If you’re unsure, please check with your site team.

For details of licensing requirements regarding catch-up TV and online streaming, please refer to your resident handbook, ask your site team or contact TV Licensing.

Can I bring my car?

Some of the sites have limited parking, including in some cases disabled parking bays. However, as the locations are generally close to universities and local amenities, a car shouldn't really be necessary. If you do want to arrange parking, speak to the site team as soon as possible - any spaces available are likely to be reserved very quickly.

Can I bring pets?

Sadly, they do not allow pets at sites. However, they make an exception for residents who require the assistance of a trained and registered Service Dog or Assistance Dog.

The staff is nice and helpful. The location is perfect if you're attending DMU, it's only 5 min walk to campus and about a 10 min walk to town. The rooms are spacious, very nice, and affordable and I enjoyed my stay during the summer and school year.

I just start to live here recently. It is one of the best student halls that I have ever lived. A 3-minute walk to DMU is the best point!!! The price is quite affordable for me and the room is really clean providing new facilities like a toaster and kettle. Especially bathroom design is quite organized, I have space to hang on my towel, some student halls do not provide this. People and stuff here are friendly. The laundry is in the hall, quite convenient to pay by top-up card and I do not need to exchange coins anymore. It is a nice place!
