Student Accommodation in Cheetham Hill

Student housing in Cheetham Hill

Cheetham Hill sits about a mile and a half north of Manchester city centre, towards the Salford boundary. It's a diverse, busy part of the city, and student housing in Cheetham Hill appeals to anyone after lower rents and a quick run into town rather than the well-trodden south Manchester student belt. The shops and retail park on its doorstep make it practical for everyday life.

What's around Cheetham Hill

The main feature is Manchester Fort, a large retail and leisure park where Cheetham Hill Road meets Queens Road, about half a mile from the city centre, with the big-name shops and a supermarket for the weekly run. Cheetham Hill Road itself is lined with independent shops, food spots and cafés reflecting the area's mix of communities. The city centre, with its bars, music venues and the Northern Quarter, is a short bus or walk south.

Getting around

Cheetham Hill Road is a busy bus corridor. The 135 runs frequently between Bury and Piccadilly Gardens in the city centre, with the 151 and 41 also serving the area, so getting into town is quick and regular. Manchester Victoria station, with its trains and Metrolink trams, is a short way south for travel further afield.

Universities near Cheetham Hill

The University of Manchester and Manchester Metropolitan University are along the Oxford Road corridor on the south side of the centre. From Cheetham Hill that's a bus to Piccadilly Gardens and a short hop or walk down to campus, which works well if you want cheaper rent over being right by your lectures.
