Student Accommodation in Mount Pleasant

Student housing in Mount Pleasant, Swansea

Mount Pleasant climbs the hill just above Swansea city centre, which makes it a handy base for students who want the centre within walking distance. Student housing in Mount Pleasant suits anyone studying at the University of Wales Trinity Saint David, whose Mount Pleasant campus sits right here, as well as students who'd rather be near the shops and nightlife than out by the bay. Be ready for the hill, though.

What's around Mount Pleasant

The city centre is right below you, so the shops, the Quadrant, the market and Swansea's main nightlife strip on Wind Street are all a short walk down. The High Street train station is close for trips home or along the coast, and the marina and seafront are an easy stroll once you're at the bottom of the hill. The trade-off for being this central is the climb back up at the end of the night.

Getting around

Being next to the centre means most things are walkable, with the climb the only catch. Frequent city buses run down to the centre and out to the Swansea University campuses, and the UniBus network is easy to pick up in town for the Singleton and Bay campuses. The High Street station handles trains further afield.

Universities near Mount Pleasant

This is home to the University of Wales Trinity Saint David's Mount Pleasant campus, with its newer SA1 Swansea Waterfront campus down by the marina. Swansea University's Singleton and Bay campuses are a bus ride away to the west and east, so the area works for students at either university who want to live centrally.
