Number 41 is a spacious light, warm and sunny 3 storey house suitable for postgraduate students.

5 Minutes walk to Cardiff University Queen’s Buildings. (Computers/Engineering)

10 Minutes walk to The Atrium (U South Wales)

Good bus transport links to Llandaff Campus (Cardiff Met),

The household has the benefit of a fully equipped kitchens with plenty of fridge space, washing machine, dryer. Shower and WC. It has separate kitchen and adjoining comfortable lounge/dining room. Central Heating and double glazing of course!

Two bedrooms are large, one a good size and one smaller. Rent share will be negotiated between the 4 housemates.

We reserve these houses every year for postgraduates, mature undergrads and sometimes placement students. 

Preference is given to people who are PhD students or just starting their masters. We know what it is like arriving in Cardiff after maybe studying in a different city and how difficult it is to find a suitable group of people to share with when you know nobody! We know people have been through the trials of dealing with difficult housemates during undergraduate days and seek to avoid repeats! 

We are very experienced landlords and work very hard to find the right mixture of people to live in our specialist house shares. We dedicate a lot of time to choosing candidates and enabling the group to form organically. The house runs basically on co-operative lines -you must willing to contribute to the household chores, cleaning rotas, waste and housework rotas, even cooking a meal for the household to share.

NOTE: 

This home is let on a co-operative type group basis – you cannot book a room here, you must apply and be considered suitable to proceed to a viewing. All successful candidates will receive a full live video or face to face viewing before final decisions are made. This is a long process and we are very careful about choosing people. It is very important to everyone!

We will be looking for people who are hardworking high level mature/postgraduate students. There are spaces in each house for anyone who is willing to comply with the contractual obligations of the household for forthcoming academic year. To apply for these households you must be

A – undergraduate and 

B – mature (I’ll be the judge of that !!)

Or a NEW  Postgraduate student

AND demonstrate a full commitment to joining a group who works and lives together. This means adhering to strict cleaning rotas and a commitment to pro-social behaviour.

The criteria for each household develops as the right people appear. All confirmed housemates are included in the decision process for choosing the rest of the the group.

I am usually finding people to join the households right up to a few days before the contract begins.

Here are some photos of one of the houses – The available places go under offer very rapidly so we tend to provide pictures direct to your phone as the summer progresses and the group forms up. 

(bedding is for photographic purposes – new bedding can be provided at cost price – please ask! It saves your luggage space if you are travelling a big distance)

This is the smaller room, – its very warm!

Other pictures will be made available at stage 2.
