Halifax College

It's a bit far from the rest of the west campus, but the walk is quite nice because you get a place for your house and a separate place for your studies. I quite like the separation of the two things. Gets you ready for second year when you're living in houses outside of campus. Because it's on the end of west campus it's next to all the sports fields and farm land, which is nice. I was there last year, but they've redecorated most of the kitchens this year, and they look sick! Cool red wall on one side, brand new fridges, and loads of fridge/cupboard space. I was in a house of 11 and we shared one shower, which wasn't too bad, but not ideal for mornings when everyone has to be getting up. We just ended up staggering shower times etc. Main best thing is that its terrace houses, rather than flats. We had one front door that only me and my 10 housemates could get through. It felt very authentic. Having visited constantine college and other colleges that have flats, i found out that anyone in your block can get into your flat and therefore your kitchen during day time hours. I didn't like that, so much preferred the house vibe at halifax.
