Accommodation a walk from The Square

The hostel is joined to the original homestead which faces Fitzherbert Avenue. The 33 rooms, lounge, laundry, bathrooms and dining facilities are all accessible from the main corridor which runs through the centre of the hostel.

Residents’ Parking

Vehicles access the hostel from Fitzherbert Ave, the drive runs down the side of the complex where there is limited residents’ parking at the rear.

Student Lounges

Right in the centre of the hostel is large lounge where students can study, watch TV, play games or do group activities. Another rec room is located at the back of the Hostel where students can hang out, play pool, table tennis or darts. A separate chill space is located by the dining hall.

Great Food

A modern kitchen is located at the west end of the hostel where students meet for meals. The meals are delicious. Students always comment on the high quality of the meals at the BSH!

Hostel Self-Catering Flat

The flat has been established to cater for students who have special dietary requirements that we cannot cater for in the hostel, such as lactose intolerance, gluten free or vegetarian requirements.

The flat is a four bedroom unit with two bathrooms and a kitchen, and dining/ lounge. It is fully furnished. Including table and chairs, couch, TV, kitchen utensils, fridge, and washing machine, plus bedroom furniture comprising a bed, dresser, desk and chair.

Students living in the self catering flat are part of the hostel and enjoy all the facilities, the only difference being they individually cater for their own food requirements.
