I’ve lived in this place for two years and have friends who lived here for 5 years. This is a good accommodation. It’s a little further out from town but otherwise location is good. Sometimes the other residents don’t take good care of the space as a result.

The gym could be better but we have a pure gym next door. Tesco express is great for quick needs but aldi is quite far. All n all a lovely place to stay with lovely staff. Shout out to the house keeping and maintainance team for keeping the place so nice and clean. Social spaces need to be better looked after by students though.

Thank you for taking the time to leave Canterbury Hall such a wonderful review. We work really hard to make the building feel as safe, welcoming, and comfortable as possible.
Canterbury Hall has great value for money the rooms here are significantly bigger than other accommodations and you also have a lot of storage space in the kitchen which is extremely handy. The building is always kept in a neat and tidy condition and there’s always someone at reception to help you out with anything you need the only issue id bring is up is the gym there’s a lot of room for improvement there.

Thank you for leaving Canterbury Hall a review, and it's great to receive your feedback regarding the video tour of Canterbury Hall. It's great to know that it does help students learn more about the building before they arrive to their new studio.
The staff don’t get enough credit! They’re the reason I’m staying a second year !
Thank you for taking the time to leave Canterbury Hall a review, and in particular the Nurtur Team who make sure your home away from home is the best it can be each and every day! We're delighted that you chose to rebook with us for next year, and hope we can continue to enhance your home away from home experience while you're studying at UCLan.
I have stayed here for 6 months now and will continue to stay here for the next academic year. The staff is very friendly, the living space is big, the bed is big and the mattress is very comfortable. The downside is that it's a bit far from the city center, it takes about half an hour to walk to the train station, and the gym is quite small.
Thank you for leaving us such a wonderful review, and we are delighted that you chose to rebook with us for next year. We appreciate your comments, and understand that our being located so close to UCLan Campus means we're a little further from the train station. We'd love to know more about your thoughts on our onsite gym - we're always looking to improve and are open to upgrading equipment where possible. Would you mind sending your thoughts to us at enquiries@nurturpreston.com? We look forward to hearing from you. Thanks.

amazing effort and maintenance from the staff
Thank you for taking the time to leave Canterbury Hall a review.
Overall good experience however wifi is so bad and building work around the area is an inconvenience due to noise
Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. We'd really like to know more about your experience with the internet - would you mind sending some more information to us at enquiries@nurturpreston.com? Once we understand the problem, we can promptly get in touch with our internet provider, ASK4 to see what improvements can be made. We wholeheartedly apologise for any disruption you've experienced from the nearby building works - we have had confirmation that this will be completed in the coming weeks.
Its good value for money. The studio is a good size and the social spaces are always clean and available. The only issue is there is no on-site parking, but city centre and UCLAN uni is walking distance with bus stops close by for further travel, such as to the hospital.
Thank you for taking the time to leave Canterbury Hall a review. We work hard to make the building feel like a home away from home for our wonderful residents while ensuring we are still student-budget friendly.
Outstanding accommodation, definitely would suggest to anyone

The facilities are top-notch, with spacious rooms and well-designed common areas. Safety and security are prioritized, and the staff were friendly and supportive.

The accommodation is really modern and is always kept clean. Staff are super friendly and will always stop to have a chat with you when they're free. Above all though, any problem you have or anything you need fixing will be attended to straight away. With on-site cleaning and maintenance nothing gets left to another day, and if it does the staff let us know via email, explaining why.
Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review - the Nurtur team is delighted with your feedback, and it's great to know you appreciate the regular communication from the onsite team.

Thank you for leaving us a review. We aim to create a safe and welcoming community for you at Canterbury Hall - this includes your private studio and your friendly communal spaces.
So far, everything has been maintained really well and the staff are really friendly. It takes about 10 minutes for me to walk to the centre of the university campus from the accommodation so it’s located somewhat nearby. Typically it is always clean and smells nice in the social spaces.
Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. We're pleased you're happy with the Nurtur service.

Having lived here for a year already moving into my second, Canterbury has always looked out for both me and my boyfriend. They've been incredibly accommodating to us, especially as I have a disability, and the staff are always lovely. There's events on every week and there very engaging with their students and even free stuff from time to time. I'm happy to be staying here another year.

Amazing accommodation with a very nice staff and service. Good social spaces with good privacy as well
Thank you for leaving us a review. It's great to hear you are pleased with the Nurtur team and the building!
Canterbury Hall has been an amazing experience I’ve been in my final year of university and it’s been like living at home comforting and warm welcoming with a lot of privacy and security, very affordable for what is provided and has access to Moor Park which is perfect for picnics and walks as well as the city being around the corner.
Thank you for leaving us a review! We're delighted you feel at home with Nurtur and are having such a positive experience.
I've lived in Canterbury Halls for 2 years and think it's a great place to stay, especially for those who value both socialising and their privacy. They have great studios to reside in and brilliant entertainment rooms for those seeking a fun time around the building.
Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. It's great to receive feedback on the #NurturLife experience we've created for our Nurtur residents!
Moved here for my second year of university and it’s a great space for students, they have events every now and then which are really nice for example you can get a free breakfast every Friday morning. There’s a free gym & cinema room which are amazing and the staff are really friendly. The room itself is very spacious and good quality. Would recommend 👍🏼
Thank you for leaving us a review - we're pleased you're happy with the events and the Nurtur team!
Overall very good accommodation, perfect distance to uni and clean.
Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review!
Great accommodation but far from the train station
Thank you for leaving us a review! Did you know you can get to the train station in 6 minutes on the bus? There's a bus stop just a short walk from Canterbury Hall. Hope that's helpful!
Decided I wanted to move into a studio for my final year of university to maximise my ability to be productive and get the best outcome possible. I originally planned to stay in my previous accommodation, but decided to look around at my options anyway. Canterbury Halls came in a lot cheaper than my previous accommodation, even with a longer contract allowing me to remain here over summer. It is well managed and the upkeep is amazing. There are events and opportunities offered all the time in the building which has been great for building friendships and meeting new people. I only wish I had found out about the place sooner because I most definitely would have chosen to live her throughout the entirety of my time at university.
Thank you for taking the time to leave us such a wonderful review. We are delighted with your feedback - especially the positive impact the Nurtur community has had on your opportunity to meet your Nurtur neighbours and make friends.
Overall pretty happy with the accommodation and the new management team. Staff is nice as well.
Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review.
Definitely worth the price! All bills included and able to maintain independence as it’s a studio. The staff are lovely and always willing to help.
Thanks for leaving us a review! We're pleased you're happy with the price at Canterbury Hall.
The accommodation is great, a lot better than the accommodation I was staying at for my first year and the price isn’t bad for the size of room and privacy you get. The only thing I have to complain about the accommodation is having to share the lounge room even when you have it booked because there are ovens there, so if you wanna have a private hangout/party with friends you can’t because someone you don’t know might walk in to use the kitchen.
Thank you for leaving us a review. We understand your comment - we do have a booking system for the communal spaces so come and chat with us in reception for more information. We would encourage you to get to know your Nurtur neighbours where possible though - this could be the perfect opportunity to meet some new people.
Best accommodation in Preston!! It is a five minute walk from my lecture halls and the library. Also not too far from town. The rooms are very nice and modern, and you have your privacy which is lovely. I would 100% recommend this accommodation to any students looking.
Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. "Best accommodation in Preston" - we can't get better than that!
A great amount of space and modern furniture in my room. The on site managers are very kind and the overall feel of the building is on the luxurious side
Thank you for leaving us a review - it's great to hear you you have had such a positive experience living with Nurtur.

Really good accommodation, the team are super friendly and welcoming, so much interaction and activities, always something going on
Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. Our focus is always on ensuring Nurtur residents have the best possible experience at home in our building.
Overall Canterbury hall is a brilliant place to live. The staff are always friendly and willing to help out and they also have job opportunities for students to work shifts with anyone who has issues after hours. The building feels safe and is close to university campus and the town centre for all amenities. It is also a walk away from a local park which is perfect for a picnic study with friends during summer! The rooms are spacious and have plenty of storage including under the bed storage. There are plentiful opportunities to make friends aswell as there are various social events. The portal is also very easy to use so you can keep track on how much rent you have left, when a new parcel arrives and reporting a problem to staff.
Thank you for leaving us a review. Every piece of feedback we receive is extremely valuable to us so we can improve on what needs attention, and make the good stuff even better for you!

Thank you for leaving us a review - we particularly enjoyed the Therapy Dog visit too, so we're pleased to hear our Nurtur residents did too!
