Location

Fallowfield

Around 2.5km south of the main University campus, Fallowfield is a popular vibrant suburb where thousands of students live happily alongside permanent residents, creating a real sense of community.

Almost a town within a city, Fallowfield is well-known for its lively social scene; you'll have no shortage of opportunities to make friends. There is also a great mix of shops, cafes, bars and a frequent bus service to and from the city centre, making it an ideal location to live.

Fallowfield is also home to the Armitage Centre, one of the sports venues. The Centre offers football, rugby, hockey and cricket pitches (all-weather and grass), squash and badminton courts, fitness classes and much more.

Victoria Park

Victoria Park is in-between the City and Fallowfield campuses, so halls here are ideally placed for both academic and social activities.

Leafy green surroundings provide a pleasant atmosphere to live and study in, with Whitworth Park and the award-winning art gallery, the Whitworth, only a short walk away. It's an approximately 15-minute walk to the University's main campus, but there are also regular bus services.

The city centre is equally accessible, only 10 minutes by bus. Next to Victoria Park is Rusholme, where a section of Wilmslow Road is fondly known as the Curry Mile. Colourful and cosmopolitan, its many restaurants and shops offer an unparalleled range of cuisine and produce. Here you'll find plenty of small minimarkets, as well as Lidl, Tesco and Sainsbury's

City Center

These halls are located either north or south of the University campus. If you choose to live north of the campus, you’ll be a five-minute walk from the heart of the city centre, while south of the campus is a ten-minute walk or a short bus ride from the centre of the action.

You'll also have Sugden Sports Centre and Manchester Aquatics Centre on your doorstep.

Salford

This characterful city is home to the compact campus of the University of Salford and is minutes away from central Manchester. You will find all types of student accommodation in Salford including student houses, flats and halls.
