Exeter student houses and accommodation near Streatham and St Luke's

Exeter is a compact university city with two main campuses: Streatham on the hill north of the centre, and St Luke's to the east for medicine, sport and education. Student houses are the city's biggest accommodation search, and bills come with every private property on our Exeter pages, with the lowest weekly rents at around £160.

Where should you rent a student house in Exeter?

Student houses Exeter is searched almost as often as student accommodation itself. Here we cover when to sign, Pennsylvania Road, Mount Pleasant, St David's, Newtown and how a house compares with a managed block.

When should you sign for a house?

Later than you might think. The University of Exeter's Move Smart guidance says the Renters' Rights Act changes how early landlords can sign students for next year. Ignore early pressure, view several houses and get the contract checked.

Pennsylvania Road, the student street

Pennsylvania Road is lively and popular, says the Students' Guild, five to ten minutes on foot from Streatham. Many second and third years live here. Expect slightly higher rent and more noise than streets further from campus.

Mount Pleasant's balanced feel

The Students' Guild puts Mount Pleasant about 15 minutes from both campuses, with bigger houses and a feel that is neither too loud nor too quiet. Students on forums call it one of Exeter's more studenty areas.

Is St David's cheaper for students?

Often, yes. The Students' Guild points to lower rent in St David's, near Exeter St Davids station and the centre. Locals note that one street can be all students and the next very quiet, so walk round at night.

Newtown for St Luke's

Newtown sits just east of the city centre, between the shops and the St Luke's campus on Heavitree Road. Its terraced streets hold many shared houses and several student properties, which suits medicine, sport and education students.

Private landlord or managed property

A shared house gives you your own front door and often lower rent per room, but bills come on top. Managed properties bundle bills, Wi-Fi and repairs into one weekly price. Price both over a full year.

Frequently Asked Questions

Compare student accommodation in Exeter with Best Student Halls. Find answers about room choices, budgeting and getting to your university. Ask about current prices and rooms for your course dates.

How can I compare the full cost of student rooms in Exeter?

Ask for a current room quote for Exeter using your course start and end dates. Multiply each room's weekly rent by its tenancy length. Compare deposits and payment dates separately, then add any utilities and daily travel costs. A lower weekly rate may cover more weeks than you need.

Should I search near Streatham or St Luke's for my Exeter room?

Use the teaching location named on your course. Compare University of Exeter accommodation against the actual campus building, rather than using an Exeter city-centre marker. A room convenient for one site can require a different journey to the other.

Does an Exeter accommodation search suit a course at Penryn Campus?

No location should be assumed suitable from the university name alone. Penryn is a different location from Exeter. If your University of Exeter course is based in Cornwall, search around Penryn or Falmouth and compare the route to that campus.

What should I consider about the walk to Streatham from an Exeter room?

Look at the actual route and gradients before judging the journey by distance. Consider evening returns and access needs, then compare a bus alternative if needed. A shorter straight-line distance does not necessarily give you an easier daily walk.

Which student rooms in Exeter have a private bathroom?

Best Student Halls lists 30 properties for Exeter searches, with studios and en-suite rooms among the room types. A studio has private cooking space and a bathroom; an en-suite room normally shares a kitchen. Compare the floor plan, full rent and room availability for your course dates.

How do I budget for Exeter accommodation when no starting price appears?

Request a current quote for your room type and dates. Ask for the weekly rent, contracted weeks, included utilities and any deposit. Compare that written quote with other available rooms; do not use a missing headline figure as a price estimate.
