Student Accommodation in Cotham

Student housing in Cotham, made simple

Cotham is the quiet win for University of Bristol students: leafy, close to campus, and a few minutes from Stokes Croft when you fancy a louder night. Sorting a room here is just as easy. On Housr you can filter student housing in Cotham by weekly price, bedrooms and bathrooms, swap between list, tile and map views, and book a viewing with a single form.

It sits between the university precinct and Gloucester Road, so you get residential calm without being cut off from anything.

What's around Cotham

Cotham Hill is the heart of it. One B Coffee House is the go-to for a morning flat white, The Viet Kitchen and Mangosteen handle the evenings, and Corks of Cotham is the wine shop you'll end up in before a house dinner. It's a short street that punches above its weight for food.

For daylight hours, Cotham Gardens is the local green space for revision breaks and the occasional barbecue, and you're a short walk from the bars and shops of Whiteladies Road. Redland and Kingsdown sit either side if you want to wander.

Getting around

Most Cotham students walk to lectures, which is the whole appeal. For everywhere else, the Whiteladies Road corridor a few minutes away carries First Bus services down to the centre and out to Clifton, and the centre itself is a 20-minute stroll downhill. Cycling is popular here too, given how flat the run into the university is.

Universities near Cotham

The University of Bristol's main precinct is the big draw, a 5 to 10 minute walk from most of Cotham, so this is one of the most popular areas for its students. UWE's Frenchay Campus is north of the city and reached by bus. See student housing near the University of Bristol, or compare living near UWE Bristol.

Accommodation in Cotham

Cotham is full of large Victorian and Georgian terraces, which makes it strong for bigger house shares as well as flats and single rooms. Filter on Housr by weekly price, number of bedrooms and bathrooms, or narrow to single rooms and studios to match your group. There are also housing options in Stokes Croft and Ashley Down.

Bills, sorted

Bigger houses mean more names on the bills, which is exactly where things get messy. Housr Bills keeps energy, water and WiFi in one monthly payment with free Contents Cover, and splits liability so one missed payment doesn't become everyone's problem. See how Housr Bills works.
