Brookland Road

Your student accommodation is close to Queens Road, which comes in handy when you fancy meeting friends for Saturday breakfast at Fingerprints Delicafe. After you’ve eaten, make your way to Leicester city centre to explore cultural attractions like beautiful Leicester Cathedral. On rainy days, seek shelter in the New Walk Museum; on sunny days, enjoy a wander around the picturesque trails of the Aylestone Meadows Local Nature Reserve. In the evening, it’s a short walk down the road to enjoy live music at The Donkey, or head out for drinks at nearby Queens Road bars, like Bar Dos Hermanos.

You can choose to make your home in a fully-furnished studio apartment, or a bigger pad that you’ll share with your friends. When you wake up each morning in your double bed, you’ll have plenty of time to enjoy a lie-in before your busy day begins. If you’re sharing with friends, most rooms have an ensuite bathroom where you can freshen up before making yourself a cup of coffee in the kitchen. 

It’s a pleasant 12-minute walk through the park to lectures at the University of Leicester, and a 12-minute ride on the bus if you’re off to the De Montfort University campus. When you get home after a busy day, spread out your textbooks on the desk on your room and connect to the free broadband internet to get started on researching your next essay. Take a well-earned break from your books to meet your mates for a drink at Babelas Continental Bar or another Queens Road bar.

When you get hungry, join your housemates to whip up a healthy dinner in the kitchen, or invite your friends over to feast on takeaway pizza. If you fancy a night out, head out for a tasty and affordable dinner at a local eatery like the nearby Spicy Flames Indian Restaurant. When you get home, curl up on the comfy sofas in the lounge to watch your favourite shows on the full HD TV before it’s time to head to bed.

Utilities are included in your rent, so you won’t have to find anything extra in your tight student budget for bills. That means you can relax and make the most of your time at Brookland Road.
