The extraction fan in my room is constantly on between 8am to 11pm every single day. Good, clean and spacious rooms. Good functioning appliances in all rooms. Ranmoor is a little more neglected than Endcliffe with no shop or bar. read more

Good accomodation , lots of students around so always things going on. Eduroam can be farcical but the ridge and edge are good. Good distance from Uni but in nice green area, and near endlciffe park which is good for some exercise. Right on bus route so easy access to town. read more

Hello and thank you for your review, we are very grateful. 

It's great to hear you have had a great time in your accommodation. Ranmoor/Endcliffe is a lovely area surrounded by lots of open green spaces and trees. The pond is lovely to visit and take time out to feed the ducks. 

Best wishes, 

Sharon

I'm in an 8 person flat of en-suite rooms in Windgather, Ranmoor. It has a great value for money. The kitchen is very big and modern which means it doesn't feel crowded even when we are all cooking and it makes it a very sociable space. Ranmoor is conveniently just a 15 minute walk from Broomhill which has lots of good grocery shops, restaurants and charity shops. The 30 minute walk into campus is quite pleasant but there is always the option of the bus which has a stop right in front of the accommodation. The computer room is a convenient (small) study space and the music room is easy to access with a good piano. The gym has quite a few machines (mainly cardio) and some weights so its quite good bearing in mind its free. Windgather is conveniently located in Ranmoor being right in front of the Ridge (close to the laundry room, gym etc.) and is one of the bigger blocks which makes it quite sociable. Definitely recommend! read more

Hello, thanks for getting in touch. Unfortunately, we don't have any pictures or 360 degree virtual tours of our semi-self contained studios on our website. The social spaces for these room types will be a standard communal kitchen and living room similar to those found in en-suite flats. You can get an idea of how they look here: https://www.sheffield.ac.uk/accommodation/360-degree-virtual-tours/ranmoor-endcliffeKind regards, Oaklyn

Hello there- Thank you so much for your question.

Because of the topography, I believe E03 is located on the Ground Floor.

I hope that this answers your question, if you have any further questions please feel free to contact the Accommodation team by emailing accommodationoffice@sheffield.ac.uk

Hello there- Thank you so much for your question.

We've got a handy guide on our website which outlines what's included in each room, including things such as the bed size. Unfortunately, we're unable to provide the size of individual rooms.

I hope that this answers your question, if you have any further questions please feel free to contact the Accommodation team by emailing accommodationoffice@sheffield.ac.uk
