Enjoy the best of The Vale without having to venture outdoors. Just downstairs from your flat, you’ll find the popular Duck and Scholar student bar; Shackleton Lounge, a prime study and social destination; Costcutter supermarket; and our Vale Infusion restaurant. Shackleton is also home to our Student Mentors, making it extra easy to receive support if you need it.

Nestled in spacious green parkland, you’ll enjoy having the privacy of your own bathroom facilities while benefitting from a shared kitchen and dining space. This is where you can relax, socialise, and cook with others, when you’re not tucking into something delicious at one of our 25+ cafés and restaurants with your Student Living Plus credit.
