If you need a copy of our Undergraduate Accommodation Guide for 2020 then you can <a href=\"http:\/\/www.exeter.ac.uk\/accommodation\/students\/prospectivestudents\/guide\/\">view or download a copy<\/a> from our website. This week we focus on the practicalities of having two campuses within the City and how this might affect your accommodation preferences. So whether you will be studying at both our\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.exeter.ac.uk\/visit\/campuses\/streatham\/\">Streatham<\/a> and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.exeter.ac.uk\/visit\/campuses\/stlukes\/\">St Luke\u2019s<\/a> campuses, or will be studying at St Luke&#8217;s but will be participating in sports on the Streatham Campus, read on to see what options you have:<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>Which residences are close to both St Luke&#8217;s and Streatham Campuses?<br \/>\n<\/strong>The answer to this question mostly comes down to personal preference and whether you are looking to live in\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.exeter.ac.uk\/accommodation\/residences\/catered\/\">catered<\/a> or <a href=\"http:\/\/www.exeter.ac.uk\/accommodation\/residences\/selfcatered\/\">self-catered<\/a> accommodation. All of our catered accommodation is located on the Streatham Campus and there are\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.exeter.ac.uk\/accommodation\/residences\/aboutcateredhalls\/\">set meal times<\/a>, so you may want to consider whether you will be able to make the most of this option if you are going to have to travel between the two campuses. Our self-catered accommodation is spread between the Streatham Campus and various off-campus locations, so you do have plenty of options available to you. We have a residence in the city centre, along with others near to St Luke&#8217;s or close to the main train station for Exeter at St Davids.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Closest to St Luke&#8217;s \u2013 <\/strong>Our Rowancroft residences, including <a href=\"http:\/\/www.exeter.ac.uk\/accommodation\/residences\/selfcatered\/rowancroft\/\">Rowancroft<\/a> (en-suite), <a href=\"http:\/\/www.exeter.ac.uk\/accommodation\/residences\/selfcatered\/rowancroftcourt\/\">Rowancroft Court<\/a>\u00a0and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.exeter.ac.uk\/accommodation\/residences\/selfcatered\/rowancroftmews\/\">Rowancroft Mews<\/a> (both standard), are only a five minute walk to St Luke\u2019s. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.exeter.ac.uk\/accommodation\/residences\/selfcatered\/nancherrow\/\">Nancherrow<\/a> is located right next to St Luke&#8217;s or would be about 30 minutes\u2019 walk to the Streatham Campus.

There are a number of larger providers of purpose-built student accommodation located across the city centre and also private landlords\/letting agents with rooms, houses and flats.
