Our tips on making your Student Accommodation more homely

Creating a homely feel when at University can make a huge difference, but remember homesickness is completely natural.

Whilst you cannot bring friends and family with you there are a few things you can do to help you feel happy and settled in your Student Accommodation.

 choose people to live with who you get on with and share similar interests with

 bring framed photos with you from home to put on your desk

 bringing homes conforts with you such as scentimental items can make a huge difference.

 scented diffusers that remind you of home give a lovely homely feel to student accommodation

But what also may help is having a video call with loved ones when you feel homesick and tell them about your student accommodation and what you may have done the previous week so they feel part of your journey living away from home.

Finding The Right Student Accommodation in Sheffield

23 September 2021

It’s coming up to that time of the year where students are starting to thinking about their accommodation for the 22/23 academic year in Sheffield.

We’ve compiled some tips to make the process a bit easier for you.

Start searching as early as possible – although October might seem like too early to start looking for a house for next July, the earlier you start looking, the better chance you have of getting the house you want!

Make sure to choose the right people – remember you have to live with these people for a whole year. If you’re stuck with people who you don’t get on with, it will make your university experience a whole lot worse. 

 ake time to look round a few houses – don’t instantly sign for the first house you see. Try and see a few over the space of a few days so you get a good idea of which house would be right for you and your friends. 

Decide a budget for rent – decide amongst your house of how much you are prepared to spend per week, excluding bills. You can then refine your search depending on this budget.

Ask the current tenants and landlord questions – put together a list of questions to ask to get the best feel of the house. Questions about parking, if the property have any history of dampness, fire and carbon monoxide alarms and what will be required to get full deposit back at end of contract.

      If you have any questions then please feel free to contact us, we are always happy to help make the process as stress free as possible for you and we have a depth of knowledge about Student Accommodation in Sheffield .
