About Cumberland Place

Your accommodation becomes part of your routine from the moment you move in. It's where you'll prepare assignments, cook meals, relax after lectures and spend time with friends. Cumberland Place offers different room types so students can choose between sharing an apartment and having their own self-contained space.

En-suite rooms sit within shared apartments, giving residents their own bedroom and bathroom alongside shared areas. Students who prefer more privacy can choose a studio with their own kitchen and living space. Each room is furnished for student use, giving you the basics you need from the start of your tenancy.

There are also communal areas outside the rooms. The study lounge gives students somewhere to concentrate, while the lounge, games room and rooftop garden terrace offer places to take a break or meet other residents.
