Cancellation policy
Cancellations: Risk-Free Bookings for 2026/27
Cancellation Before Countersigning
If you cancel your booking before the agreement is countersigned, your advance rent payment will be refunded.
Cooling Off Period
If you booked online or by phone and have not viewed the accommodation in person, you have a 72-hour cooling-off period after booking (reduced to 24 hours from 1st August 2026).
During this period, you may cancel your booking provided you have not moved in. To cancel, please email the Residents’ Team with the subject line: “Cooling Off Period Cancellation.”
Refunds will be processed within 10 working days.
Cancellations for Exceptional Circumstances After the cooling-off period, you may cancel before the tenancy start date only if:
You are unable to obtain a visa to enter the UK
You did not receive the required grades to attend your chosen university
You failed to achieve the grades needed to continue your studies
Please provide supporting evidence (e.g. UCAS notification or visa refusal) to your Residents’ Team within 72 hours of receiving it.
Your advance rent payment will then be refunded.
If you receive this notification after your tenancy start date, you remain responsible for rent payments up to the date you provide evidence and we confirm your release. No other cancellation requests will be accepted before or during the tenancy.
Finding a Replacement Occupier for your accommodation.
If you wish to end your license to occupy early, you may find a replacement licensee acceptable to the landlord. The new licensee will sign a new agreement, which may be at a different rent to match the current market rate.
Before we accept a replacement:
Your rent account must be fully up to date
Any rent owed up to your leaving date must be paid
Once the replacement licensee has signed and paid, they will assume responsibility for all future rent and obligations. Until then, you remain responsible for the rent until the original end date.
Frequently Asked Questions
How to Book?
Booking is easy—just click any "Book Now" button on the website to start your application. If you need help or want to book short-term lets or summer stays, contact the Residents' Team at your chosen property.
Booking Process Details
The booking process is quick and straightforward, but having some information ready will help. You'll need the name, email, and address of your guarantor, a headshot photo, and a bank card for the advance rent/booking fee (ROI only)
Do I Need a Guarantor?
Most properties require a guarantor, who will pay the rent if you can't. Your guarantor must be over 18, not live in a Fresh-managed property, and can reside outside the UK. After signing the contract, your guarantor must provide ID, proof of address, and sign the agreement. Some properties may allow you to pay the full year's rent upfront to avoid needing a guarantor. Check with the Residents’ Team if this option is available.
What is Advance Rent?
Most properties require advance rent when booking. This is refundable if you cancel within the cooling-off period, your place is withdrawn, or you cannot get a UK visa. This advance rent will go towards your first rent installment.
How to choose the Right Room?
We want you to love your room. Our Residents' Team can help you choose based on your preferences, like floor, view, and amenities.
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'm loving my stay here at Central Studios! Tracey is so accommodating and kind especially during the renovation going on at the moment! The location is so convenient, two minutes away from the train station and two away from the shopping centre! Even the washing machines are so much better than my previous accommodation!

Living in this student accommodation has been a genuinely positive experience. The location is incredibly convenient, with easy access to the public transport, and nearby shops, which made day-to-day life much smoother. The room itself was clean, well-maintained, and thoughtfully designed for student needs. the management team are responsive, helpful, and quick to resolve any issues and veryyyyyyy nice especially Simon and Tracey Overall, I would highly recommend this accommodation to any student looking for a comfortable, safe, and well-managed place to live during their studies.
