Beautiful town and really good student community. But issues with housing and affordability - everything is very expensive.

Philosophy - MA (Hons)

University rating (4)

The Philosophy department is lovely. There's so many options for societies and extra-curricular. The buildings are nice though the library is too small to accomodate students. Affordable housing is a huge issue.

Physics - MPhys (Hons)

University rating (4)

Having a small student community allows you to know most of your classmates and helps when it comes to collaborating on work. As it is quite a small town and far from a train station it aimes times feels a bit isolated.
