Dun Holm House Reviews

fantastic staff, very friendly and welcoming. The location couldn't be any better! Very close to all transport methods, very easy access to shopping and restaurants, entertainment etc as it is in the very centre. Dun Holm House is also a short walk/ very short bus journey to all areas of the university. Now the building is complete, there are very few issues (in terms of heating, plumbing etc.) If anything does need to be mended, it is done so quickly and efficiently. It is a very safe environment with fantastic facilities; for example a study room and a large gym. Most importantly for students, the wifi is good! No problems connecting electronics :D

A generally good place to stay but little strange rules like only one entrance and no allowance for lift is strange. anyway got used to it.

Really good living experience with nice rooms and kind staff. However, the location is not ideal because it is so far from all the lectures.

The site located in the town center, bus station is on the opposite side of the road, really convenient for us. The room had plenty of shelves, good for putting a lot of stuff. Also like the gym, basically I'll go there six days per week.

Good private space in studios and excellent common area. BTW, the wifi signal is really bad in my room.

All staffs are so kind and lovely, always wear a smile and ready to help. The location is good, right beside the city centre with a bus stop within reach.

great and comfortable living experience, good for us to concentrate on our study. better if get someone clean the room regularly like the dormitory in school.

You can clearly hear the noise from downstairs which makes u crazy

Generally speaking, it is quite satisfactory. Just the range hood of the kitchen has little effect, there will be smoky if I want to cook in room.

It’s quite close to city center. I quite like here. The infrastructure is perfect. It has gym and study room which I need. It deserves money I paid.

Excellent but the door of gym would be better if not be automatically locked and the door of study room is difficult to push

Great accommodation , good value for money.

pretty good I enjoy that thank you

Very convenient although I need to go upstair to third floor without lift if I need to go out. This place is in city centre and near durham bus station and railway station!! Also, there is three bus station opposite to the accommodation

The layout of the room is comfortable, the price is good, the location is excellent, and daily life is very convenient.

Good Experience，Good Location， However，too many room views. I am used to sleep late. Every time when I was sleeping, I was disturbed by knocking the door. I feel quiet dissatisfied about that. That will effect my sleep quality. Moreover, the lifts are often smelly. The rubbish bins are often full. Overall, a nice place for me.

Good experience and meet your demands. This is a great choice to you.

Nice place, very expensive, WiFi been terrible this past month. Social spaces could be improved. Just look at student castle and compare.

Dun Holm House is a place with great location and thoughtful staffs. Excellent choice for students.

it is so great, but the E black is so far from the reception

See if Student Castle has any spaces first. It's better prices for a nicer accommodation. Also, the floors in the Dun Holm kitchen and flat common area are a nightmare to maintain.

Great management, very responsible team, great location and cozy room. Only problem is the construction didnt finish by the start of our tenancy as promised so it was a bit noisy. Also the request for access of the room is a bit too often.

I personally had a great year having met our very nice and friendly management team whose efforts to sort out the issues and problems were highly appreciated and look forward to a better year ahead.

It's not really worth the amount- but it is good i guess. The staff are nice and supportive.

Charges a bit too much for what it is, was unfinished at the start of the year, but well managed and staff were all friendly

Potential to be a really good student accomodation experience, however the ongoing building work and poor WiFi is a considerable let down for the money paid. On the plus side, the entire management team really make Dun Holm a pleasant place to come home to after a long day at uni.

Absolutely appalling. We were sold a tenancy that we were not given. Constant building disruption and disturbances from staff. An unfinished site, staff who bat off responsibility and senior management who need to go under urgent review. I feel absolutely violated as a tenant and am well aware of my rights and how they’ve been breached. Fresh Student Living should be ashamed.

Dun Holm is well managed by Lynne and Michelle. They have successfully turned the building into a great place to hang out with your friends and meet new people.
