Lancaster is a vibrant city with plenty of accommodation for students to rent, from traditional houses to modern apartments and purpose-built halls of residence. There's an ever expanding and exciting offering with excellent transport links to the University campus.
Most new students choose to live on campus in their first year and our vibrant and inclusive college communities are the best way to settle in, make friends and make the most of the student experience on offer. You might choose to do that throughout your time here, but some students will opt to experience life in the city for a year after they have been here a while.
Renting in the private sector can be a daunting prospect though, so we created to guide you through the process and make it easy for you to identify properties inspected and approved by us, so you can quickly find the best private accommodation on offer.
