Find your neighbourhood

One of Bristol's most prestigious neighbourhoods, with Georgian townhouses, boutique cafes, and Clifton Village right on your doorstep. Popular with UoB students who want to be close to campus and don't mind paying a premium for it.

Sandwiched between the university and Gloucester Road, Cotham is a quiet, leafy option for UoB students. Victorian terraces and a calm residential feel, with everything Gloucester Road has to offer just a short walk away.

Leafy Victorian terraces just north of the university, and one of the biggest student areas in the city. Chandos Road's restaurants, its own train station, and the Downs nearby make it the classic UoB house-share territory.

Georgian terraces on the hill directly above the UoB campus and the BRI. The closest area to lectures in Bristol, with St Michael's Hill pubs halfway down and views over the whole city from the top.

Living in the heart of Bristol means everything is on your doorstep, shops, restaurants, nightlife, and excellent bus connections to both universities. Premium prices, but unbeatable convenience for students who love urban living.

A hidden gem tucked between Clifton and the Harbourside. Hotwells has a relaxed, community feel with independent cafes and stunning waterfront views, quieter than the city centre but well connected to both.

Bohemian and buzzing, Montpellier sits at the heart of Bristol's independent scene. Street food markets, vintage shops, and a strong community vibe make it a favourite for students who want character over convenience.

South of the river and full of character. North Street's independents and street art, the Tobacco Factory, and Wapping Wharf a short walk away, with better value than the postcodes north of the water.

One of Bristol's most diverse and lively neighbourhoods, with some of the best value student housing in the city. St Marks Road's food scene is a highlight, and the Bristol to Bath railway path runs straight past it.

At the top end of Gloucester Road, Horfield offers bigger houses and smaller rents than its southern neighbours. Horfield Common is on hand for sunny days, and buses run both into town and out to UWE.

The classic UWE choice, sitting between the city and the Frenchay campus. Big student house-shares, proper local pubs, and Eastville Park and Oldbury Court nearby when you need some green space.

Further out but offering some of the most affordable student housing in the Bristol area. Filton is popular with UWE students given its location, with regular bus links into the city centre for when you want a night out.

One of Bristol's most popular student areas, sitting along Gloucester Road, arguably the city's best stretch of independent shops, cafes, and bars. Great value housing with easy access to both universities.
