Corfe House

The location was perfect for me. It's in Poole town centre which is where I work and is only half an hour away from uni on the bus. If you're looking for nightlife this accommodation wouldn't be the right one for you. The rooms are good value with a small double bed, en suite and a lot of desk/storage space. This is the cheapest accommodation available and is the best value for money as you get the same/better facilities as the other places in Bournemouth. The staff are friendly.

Corfe House was quite far away from uni campus but the buses were easy to use. Interacted with a lot of other students and had a lot of fun

This halls of residence may seem daunting to any student who ends up in it by mistake, though it can be the time of your life. Being stuck with hundreds of people who all got plopped 6 miles away in Poole but really it's just one massive party all the time. Corfe is a lifestyle man..... oh yeah the rooms are sick and it's all cushty

All accommodation in BU is great and was by far the nicest when applying for universities. I liked living in Corfe House because it was smaller to other halls at BU and was in Poole. The rooms were nice with double beds and a en-suite bathroom. I only shared a kitchen with 3 other flatmates and we had 2 fridge/freezers to share. We had many cupboards to use and a comfortable common area. My only issue was the distance between Corfe and the university/bournemouth town centre. It was quite a pain to go anywhere by bus and I’d easily spend an hour on the bus for one journey. There was also not that much to do in Poole in terms of nightlife but I didn’t mind because I wasn’t that big into clubbing. Overall, I really liked Corfe and would recommend it to those who want something a bit different and more removed from the crazy nightlife that bournemouth has.

It was a lovely building and the staff were very helpful and kind. It was always kept clean and tidy but the down side was that it was far from university. I felt safe in the building and the 24hr staff helped with that.
