Known for the Dower House, an imposing (and allegedly haunted) yellow landmark which overlooks Bristol from a hill above the M32, Stoke Park is found to the north-east of Bristol city centre. It borders Cheswick Village and Lockleaze, which are also areas Bristol students, especially those at UWE, might consider for finding housing.

Stoke Park is around 20 minutes from UWE's Frenchay campus by bus or walking, while it would take around 30-40 minutes by bus to reach the University of Bristol campus.
