Designated Areas

 

Aberystwyth has a range of accommodation choices to suit the different lifestyle choices of our students. We currently have the following lifestyle options available, and we are working on  further developments in future years:

  • Quiet Spaces.
  • Mature Student Spaces.
  • Single Gender.
  • Welsh Halls.

Not all our halls of residence have these options available.

We have Quiet spaces available in Cwrt Mawr, Fferm Penglais, Pentre Jane Morgan, Rosser and Trefloyne.

Mature spaces are available in Pentre Jane Morgan and Fferm Penglais.

Single gender spaces are available in all halls.

Block 2 in Fferm Penglais and Pantycelyn are our designated Welsh halls.

Quiet Spaces

University accommodation can be a lively and busy environment, especially where large numbers of students are living together. If you prefer a quieter setting you can choose to live in one of our quiet spaces.

If you decide to live in our quiet accommodation, we ask that you keep noise to a minimum after 10pm. After this time, there should be no music, parties or guests visiting. You should also be considerate using any shared facilities and be mindful of your housemates and their quiet preferences. All students will have to agree to the conditions of living in a quiet hall.

Our Security team are available to support you if your housemates are not following the rules. You can contact them anonymously. If residents living in quiet accommodation continue to not follow the rules, you may be moved to other accommodation.

While we can work to keep your immediate environment quiet, unfortunately, we can't regulate the level of external or environmental noises.

Mature Spaces

We have houses and flats that are designated specifically for undergraduate students who are over 25. Students over 25 will be automatically shown the rooms available for mature students.

Welsh Halls

For those who speak Welsh, are learning Welsh and/or want to live through the medium of Welsh we have two options. Pantycelyn is our traditional catered Welsh hall of residence and we have flats in Block 2 of Fferm Penglais.

If you do speak Welsh and are unable to chose Pantycelyn or Block 2, please contact the accommodation office via email at accommodation@aber.ac.uk
