Norwich University of the Arts Accommodation

Norwich University of the Arts (NUA) is the go-to for creative students across the UK, thanks to its heavy focus on art and design fields including fine art, fashion, textiles, game design, film and visual effects.

Due to the NUA campus being located in the very heart of Norwich, student life here can really only be described as buzzing and vibrant. Surrounded by endless shopping opportunities, countless restaurants and bars, and centuries’ worth of history and culture, NUA is fortunate enough to be in the heart of one of the UK’s oldest and liveliest cities.

What’s more, students at NUA are never far away from the great outdoors, despite the university being city centre-based. With the scenic county of Norfolk and its rolling countryside just a short bus journey away, there are many popular seaside destinations (such as Great Yarmouth and Lowestoft) that can easily be reached from your Norwich student housing for when you need a day of fun and adventure.

NUA's city centre location really does make it an accessible university no matter where in Norwich you live, meaning that the whole of this vibrant city is your oyster when it comes to choosing NUA accommodation.

Student life near Norwich University of the Arts accommodation

Fancy living in private halls or a 1-bedroom flat? Then the city centre is the ideal spot for you, with this area being right on NUA's doorstep and home to a wide selection of private halls and modern apartments.

Aside from its great selection of NUA student accommodation, Norwich's city centre is famed for its fusion of history and contemporary culture, and you'll find centuries-old pubs sitting next door to up-and-coming bars alongside a mix of reserved marketplaces and futuristic shopping centres.

If you want somewhere a little more student-oriented, try the Golden Triangle for student accommodation near Norwich University of the Arts. This community has plenty of larger 5-, 6- and even 8-bedroom properties, all ready to host those bigger groups of students and (let’s be honest) the parties that come hand-in-hand.

It’s not just the bedrooms that make the Golden Triangle a fave amongst NUA students though; this area is only a 30-min walk away from Norwich University of the Arts (making it an easy commute even for those 9am lectures), and is where you'll find a wide variety of independent pubs, restaurants and cafés. All you could ever need can be found within the Golden Triangle – what more could you want?

Other student accommodation areas across Norwich tend to be further out from the city centre and the NUA campus, making travel times to uni a little longer. If you don’t mind being close to the University of East Anglia, then North & West Earlham is a sought-after student area where student life is buzzing. Earlham’s proximity to UEA means there are excellent public transport routes to the city centre, and the large student population means there are loads of local amenities (including some great pubs) nearby.

Just bear in mind that Earlham has been UniHomes' most popular place for student accommodation for three years running now, meaning that house hunting here can be competitive.
