Plymouth Student Accommodation Plymouth students tend to live in one of four areas: North Hill, Mutley, Central/ Hoe areas and Lipson/St. Judes. Central and Hoe areas stood out as the most desirable, with satisfaction ratings of 64% and 82% respectively. There are fewer students here, but they are still close to the University and the shops. However, rents are slightly higher, at £86 for Central and £92 for the Hoe. Mutley is the main student location, covering a large area so walking distances will vary. However, with a satisfaction rating of 64% and rents exactly at the average at £84 per week, it is a highly desirable location. For less of a walk, you could live on or just off North Hill, where you can expect to pay £85 per week. Lipson/St Judes is further away, and while still a student area, there are also more local residents. Students have scored it a satisfaction rating of 58%, which is reflected in the lowest rent £79 per week. Quality accommodation students in Plymouth PLYMOUTH Why choose • us?
