Life Beyond Your Room: Facilities and Social Spaces

A student residence needs to accommodate more than sleeping and studying. Scape Queensberry has a selection of shared facilities that give residents places to work, exercise, cook, relax and spend time with other students.

Study Zones

Students can use the Study Lounges and Study Rooms when they need somewhere away from their bedroom to concentrate on assignments, reading or group projects. Having separate study areas also gives residents a change of setting during longer periods of university work.

Social Hubs

In the common spaces, there are numerous options for spending time outside of studying. Social Spaces and the Lounge Area offer areas for tenants to meet other individuals in the building, while the Rooftop Terrace gives an outdoor environment with city views.

The BBQ area can be used for informal meals and gatherings with friends. There is also a Rooftop Cinema, allowing people another opportunity to relax and watch films without having to organise an evening out elsewhere in the city.

Wellbeing and Fitness

For those residents who prefer to continue a regular regime of exercise alongside their university work, a gym is accessible on site. It may also be easier to schedule exercise around lectures, study sessions and other commitments if fitness facilities are available within the home.

Everyday Convenience

Daily chores are covered through the on-site laundry, while the communal kitchen gives residents a shared place to prepare meals and cook with friends or flatmates.

The kitchen is particularly relevant for students who prefer preparing their own food rather than relying on cafés and restaurants for every meal. It also forms another shared part of the residence where students can interact naturally with people living around them.

On-site Events

On-site events are also part of the Scape Queensberry offering. These activities provide residents with opportunities to meet people within the building and take part in activities beyond their usual study routine.
