Chancellors South is a very good and modern building. Rooms come with ensuit bathrooms which are wet rooms and a towel rack radiator. Lots of storage in bedroom (wardrobe/shelves, drawers, under bed storage). Comes with tv/computer and a mini fridge. Shared kitchen and common room are very impressive, two induction ovens, two fridges, two freezers, plenty of cupboards for whole cluster (8 people) and one lockable cupboard each. Downsides: freezer drawers are not of equal size so it feels unfair to split drawers between the cluster as two people end up with the ice drawer at the top of freezer whilst two people are getting the largest drawer at the bottom. Common room has a TV, dining table and chairs, and a sofa. (Bean bag too it you’re lucky!). Wifi is hit and miss at Chancellors south, sometimes its great and sometimes you are forced to sit in the hall way to do your assignment because the wifi has stopped working in your cluster. Same with phone reception, very hard to make clear phone calls sometimes. Social experience is different for everyone depending on relationship with your cluster, there is social every wednesday and frat every other thursday at the student union which at the start of uni (freshers) is unreal but after that it becomes a bit quiet and loses its feel due to people being on placement and having deadlines restricting social time. Halls are on campus and a 10-20 minute walk from Ormskirk town or the train station where you can get a half hour train to Liverpool / there is also a free bus available for students that takes you from the university to Ormskirk that runs all week.
