Do You Need a Guarantor?

Most landlords and letting agents require a UK-based guarantor. Without one, you may be asked to pay your full year's rent upfront. To help students navigate this, we've partnered with Housing Hand, which can provide a recognised certificate of rental guarantee, giving both you and your landlord peace of mind.

It's worth knowing that several of our student halls don't require a UK-based guarantor at all, allowing students to pay rent in convenient instalments instead. To find out which properties qualify and how to get started, reach out to our team. We're happy to guide you through the booking process from start to finish.

    I’ve had a really positive experience living at Catherine House. The two ladies on reception are absolutely incredible. They go above and beyond to help with anything you need and genuinely make the stay more comfortable. They’re always welcoming, approachable, and willing to sort things quickly — which makes a huge difference when you’re living away from home. The maintenance staff are also brilliant. They respond very quickly to requests and are always friendly and professional when they come to fix something. It’s reassuring to know that any issues get dealt with efficiently. Having staff onsite 24/7 is another big plus. It’s really handy knowing there’s always someone available if something goes wrong or you need assistance, especially late at night. One thing to be aware of is that room sizes can vary quite significantly, even when paying the same amount of rent. That can be a little frustrating — especially as my room is one of the smaller ones. However, the room does still have everything you need, and the space is functional and comfortable once you’ve settled in. Also, be prepared for your legs to get stronger — the lifts do tend to break down quite a bit, so you’ll definitely get your steps in. Overall, Catherine House feels safe, well-managed, and supportive. I’d definitely recommend it to other students looking for accommodation with a friendly and reliable team behind it.
