Rockingham House

On weekends, meet your friends for coffee at multimedia gallery Bank Street Arts. Spend an hour exploring the latest exhibition, before taking advantage of your student discount at open-air shopping centre Orchard Square. If you’re looking for something more unique, take a stroll down nearby Devonshire and Division Streets. Shop for obscure books at Rare & Racy, browse vintage threads at Vulgar, or splurge on one of Syd & Mallory’s indie designer outfits. In the evening, head to The Great Gatsby for cocktails and Mexican food, or to The BBQ Collective for a taste of the American South.

From your fully furnished flat at Rockingham House, you can walk to the University of Sheffield in six minutes, and to Sheffield Hallam University in 10. Give yourself a few extra moments in your luxuriously large bed, then search through your wardrobe for something to wear. On the way to class, stop in at Tamper Coffee for an artisan latte and a fresh-baked pastry. Keep a bike in the safe storage for exploring the city on weekends, or use the bus and tram stops located outside your door.

When you get home, catch up with your housemates on the couch in your shared lounge. Tune into your favourite series on the flatscreen TV, then retreat to the peace and quiet of your private bedroom to get started on your assignments. Connect to the Wi-Fi at your study desk to get some research done, or take a break to browse social media. In summer, head out to the courtyard for a breath of fresh air, or wander down the street to sit in the sunshine in Devonshire Square.

With your own ensuite bathroom, you’ll never have to queue for a shower and the 24-hour laundry ensures you never run out of clean clothes. Spend the rest of the afternoon playing pool in the common room, or cooking up a storm in the shared kitchen. When you feel like a night out, head to The Wick At Both Ends for dancing and cocktails, or to traditional pub the Dog & Partridge for a pint of real ale. With an on-site management team and 24-hour CCTV giving you absolute peace of mind, you’ll settle in quickly to Rockingham House.
