Start your day by greeting the concierge in your modern home then heading out the door to cycle or walk to class. Living in the centre of town, the shops in the Roebuck Shopping Centre are a moment away, or you can wander down the cobbled streets of the Iron Market, past Victorian and Edwardian shopfronts. Take your pick of the daily markets to pick up everything from fresh fruit and vegetables to quirky antiques for your new home. Sit in Queen’s Gardens in Spring, admiring the blooms, or in cooler weather grab a seat by the fireplace in the traditional Ironmarket pub to read through notes.

Living in Keele House, you’ll be perfectly placed for either Keele University or Staffordshire University. Reach both by walking around half an hour or jumping on a bus for a short 10-minute journey. The Royal Stoke University Hospital is a short walk away as well. If you feel like exploring further afield, then Stoke-on-Trent is easy to reach by bus and once there, you can take the train to Manchester or London for a weekend away. On week nights, meet friends for a bowl of Tom Sum at the Art of Siam Thai restaurant.

As one of the first students to live at Keele House, you’ll love your newly built home. Living in your own modern studio, you can make the most of the clever layout and design. Spread your books out in the study area, before whipping some dinner up in the kitchenette or relaxing on the bed in your sleeping area. Enjoy a private ensuite with power shower and tidy kitchen area with hob and mini fridge.

There’s plenty of storage in your studio with large underbed drawers, ideal for keeping larger items like suitcases tidied away. Above your desk, you’ll find fitted shelving to place all your folders, textbooks and notepads.

After a day of lectures, unwind in the common area with friends, where you can lay on the couches watching TV or play a game of pool. Sit at the computer bar with friends to work on group projects. You’ve got access to a laundry and gym, and the hotel-style concierge team will be on hand to answer any maintenance questions.
