What's around Pennsylvania

This is a residential area first, so day to day you're leaning on Pennsylvania Road for its convenience stores, cafés, and a couple of pubs, with the bigger shops a walk down into town. The community feel is part of the appeal: it's houses and students rather than bars and traffic.

The green surroundings are the trade for being out of the centre. You're close to the campus grounds and the open space around it, and the city's restaurants and nightlife are a 20 minute walk or a short bus downhill.

Getting around

Pennsylvania is walking distance to campus, which is the whole point. For the centre, it's a downhill walk of around 20 minutes, easy on the way in and a slog on the way back.

Buses run along the main roads into town and a Stagecoach termrider pass covers you if the hill wins. Cycling is quick going down, less fun coming up.
