Advantages: Easy to keep a place in accomodation

Disadvantages: sometimes expensive

Over the two years I have spent at st Andrews I have had the delight of being able to maintain a place in the University accomodation. There are many different accomodation places on offer around St Andrews in many different halls, each hall is priced differently. Of these many halls I have stayed in two and visited most at some point. Here is a little about some of them:

New hall

Situated on the North Haugh New Hall is used as a hotel over the summer months, meaning that it is a luxury stay. The rooms are all en-suite with a double bed and a tv(though liscensing comes out of your pocket). The atmosphere is not the most friendly as the hall is designed on a swedish prison. I didn't like it that much but that is not to say that you won't.

Fife Park

This area of accomodation is made of self sufficient housing that contain six bedrooms, two bathrooms and a kitchen. The cleaning is left up to you but a cleaner comes round once in a while to lend a hand int he kitchen and bathroom. Fife Park is hwever situated outside of the town about 2 miles from the town but there is a path alongside fields so the walk can be pleasurable but long.

Albany park(Gatty)

Similar to Fife park but has a common room on offer which means rooms are smaller. Gatty is situated closer to town, seated down by the east sands.

David Russell Hall

I have mixed reports on this hall as some of my friends liked it others hated it. This hall offers students a single bedroom to themselves and then catering for your meals.

These are the halls I know most about of these I have enjoyed Fife Park the most.

Feel free to email me if you wish any more information on any halls
