Birks Grange Village gallery
I've loved living in halls in my time at Exeter! Birks Grange is only a short distance from campus and means it's easy to get to all my lectures, seminars, social and sports events.
'Cardiac Hill' has certainly lived up to its nickname, and trekking up the hill every day is keeping me in shape. Living in halls has also provided me with the opportunity to meet lots of people and I couldn't have asked for nicer flatmates. I would strongly recommend halls for anyone coming to Exeter as I've had such a great experience!

Having a communal kitchen made it so easy to socialise. I have thousands of pictures and videos from our time spent in that kitchen, whether it be for special occasions, or just hanging out in the evenings.
