Private Sector Accommodation
An array of high quality private accommodation is available on the University’s doorstep for both new students who prefer the private sector option and existing students moving out of halls. A range of housing is just a five-minute walk away from both the Treforest, Glyntaff and ATRiuM campuses. Accommodation Services staff will provide assistance to help you find a suitable place.
It is worth visiting the area and the house before you rent a room. You should visit as many properties as possible in person to assess whether the accommodation is right for you. There are ample hotels and guest houses available in the local area should you wish to stay for a few nights while you look for a suitable house. Please download our Hotel and Bed and Breakfast guide for further information.
