Advantages: Wicked environment, On-site facilities, Plenty of people to meet

Disadvantages: FAr from uni (this ca ba a good thing!), Gym was never found, Traffic while on the bus

With 1100 people on site, 500 in halls, the place is just awesome!

Ok, you may be a few miles out from campus (who wants to be on the door step of uni anyway??), but with a bus turning up every 10 minutes (so they tell you!) there is no problem getting to an from the uni or town.

Basically, its the only halls that has its own community. You meet someone new every day, wether it be down the bar or at the bus stop. With each house containing 80 people you also have plenty of variation if you don't get on too well with those on your corridor (highly unlikely!). There are also about 8 houses - so there is thriving competition in the sports events Bodington organises and plenty of good humored rivalry - but it all adds to the entertainment.

The accomodation itself is comfortable (I have seen a lot worse!) and facilities good - although the on site gym never was found!

As for the catering - I will leave that to your imagination, but at the end of the day the amount of alcohol you will end up consuming will mean you won't go calorie-less!!

Basically, if you want to move into halls, you don't mind being woken at 3am everynight (especially Wednesdays after the crowd come back from 'Heaven & Hell') then you can't go far wrong selecting Bodington as your first choice of accomodation.

Trust me - I thought it would be awful, but if I had the choice again I wouldn't go anywhere else!!

It made my year!
