Having stayed here for roughly 3+ years, I can safely say that Bowland College has some of the best student accommodations in the North West of the United Kingdom. Its location is excellent, as it is located near the middle of the university, and is always close by to all of the amenities available on campus. read more

I had a ensuite in Bowland Hall and it was severely overpriced and outdated. It obviously hadnt been renovated since it was built, hadn't been cleaned before I moved in (the dust on the bathroom floor was so thick that it was grey instead of black), the oven exploded and could've killed my flatmate because it hadn't been safety tested in 4 years even though it was clearly broken and I reported a horrible mould growth on my wall which they ignored and didn't fix. I could go on for ages about this accommodation but I can sum it up with being overpriced, outdated and unsafe. I paid almost £155/week (it was £110 the year before and is about £165 now, I think) - you can get luxury accommodation for that price so don't waste your money on this. read more
