Staff are passionate about their subjects/research There is sometimes a large workload

Level of practical hours is good but could be more

Cost and furniture was generally old/cheap and broke but was replaced quickly

So much to get involved in! Campus has some lovely study spots and its surrounding area has some nice locations for a night out if that’s what you are looking for.

Perfect location to study marine biology, countless volunteering opportunities available in the marine conservation field. Lecturers are lovely, interesting and always willing to help you.

I do think there is a big gap in price between university managed halls and private ones. University managed ones tend to be a little bit more pricy, especially on campus ones like Francis Drake. If i were to do halls again, I would probably go private instead.
