Is dual occupancy an available option?

Looking to move in with a partner who's also a student? Dual occupancy is available in selected rooms and locations.

For 2027/28 tenancies, our properties across the UK offer free dual occupancy on certain room types, which means you can live with your partner (or best mate if you don’t mind sharing a bed!) and experience a new way of student living.

What room types are available for dual occupancy?

Only studio rooms, of any style, can be booked under a dual occupancy.

Do both residents have to be students?

Yes, to qualify for dual occupancy both the lead customer and the second tenant must be enrolled at university.

Do both residents need to pay?

There is no additional charge for residents sharing a dual occupancy studio. The dual occupant will sign the same tenancy documents, sharing the cost of the room.

How do I book a dual occupancy room?
