Information for Tenants

Rent Payments

Payment can be made using one of the following options:

  1. Monthly instalments in advance, due on the 1st of each calendar month - if providing a UK based guarantor.
  2. Two payments in advance – one payment ahead of check-in and the second payment by 1st January 2024.
  3. One single payment ahead of check-in.

Rent is requested via direct bank transfer. We will confirm bank details including SWIFT bank details prior to the commencement of your tenancy agreement.

Monthly payment plans are only available to tenants who are a UK resident. If the prospective tenant is from overseas, they will be required to pay in advance in either a single payment or in two payments. Please be aware that you must be a full-time student to be exempt from council tax.

Wi-Fi connection speeds of up to 50Mb/s are included but the speed achieved not only depends on your device but also how many other tenants are using Wi-Fi at the same time.

Cancellation and Deposit Refund Policy

If you have paid the deposit and not yet signed the tenancy agreement but change your mind, then you are due your deposit back. You can cancel your booking in writing or by sending an email directly to the Property Team.
