Come out of your contemporary flat and you’ll find yourself on campus in moments. After class, take a walk to The Mall Luton to go shopping in high street stores or explore the covered marketplace where you can pick up something new to try from one of the many stalls selling groceries from around the globe. If that’s got your taste buds watering, head to Papa J’s for some of the best Indian in the area, served in a tapas style that’s perfect for sharing with friends. Spend your downtime jogging by the lake in Wardown Park, or taking trips to London or further afield from Luton Airport.

You’ll have no reason to be late for classes when you live so close to the University of Bedfordshire’s Luton campus. Go for a coffee and chat with student representatives in the Student Union, and find out about upcoming social events. Living in the town centre means you can get to shops at The Mall in a matter of minutes. The train station’s close by, with trains to London running regularly and taking you into the capital around half an hour. Jump on a bus or hail a taxi to get to Luton Airport if you’ve booked a cheap flight and are heading away for a weekend.

You can choose from a range of rooms at Fitzroy Courts. Whatever you choose, you can enjoy your own private ensuite, study area and plenty of storage space, complete with fitted shelves and cupboards. The modern building makes the most of large glass windows to let in light and make the spaces feel open and bright.

When you’re not studying in your room, you can always head to the common lounge area and sit back on the chesterfield-style couch as you chat with friends about your day or watch TV. Take your books to the long bench and pull up a stool to work on group projects with fellow students. Let off steam after a day of sitting at your desk by working out in the gym or playing a game of pool with housemates in the games area.

There’s a laundry room when you need to get on top of your washing, and the on-site management and maintenance teams will be able to help if you need assistance. Managing your money is easy at Fitzroy Courts as utilities, Wi-Fi and contents insurance are included. Plus, the 24-hour security and CCTV mean you won’t have to worry about a thing.
