Student Homes in Fulford, York
Just a ten-minute drive south of the city centre, you'll find plenty of picturesque student homes in Fulford. This historic village in the outskirts of York always proves popular with new and returning students, not only due to its proximity with the University of York's main campus, but the strong community spirit that runs through the neighbourhood. Situated on eastern the banks of the River Ouse, properties in Fulford range from period homes with multiple bedrooms to chic new-build flats that boast comfort and affordability!
When the time comes to get a round in, head to the Bay Horse or the Plough Inn in Fulford, two friendly pubs that serve comfort food and a selection of beers, wines and spirits. Since you'll be only two miles from the city centre, you'll never be too far from the abundance of pubs, cafés and restaurants that York is famous for. However, a little closer to home, you'll find food shops and some of the best takeaways such as King's Traditional Fish and Chips Restaurant, who serve mouth-watering, freshly caught fish with proper English mushy peas!
If you're a keen golfer, bring your clubs to Heslington Lane, where you can soak up expansive views and get any help you need from the friendly staff at the clubhouse. Alternatively, take your bike out for a scenic cycle across the Millennium Bridge and the River Ouse to the south of York. If you're just looking for a peaceful stroll to take your mind off your studies, head to Fulford Ings, where you'll find grassy green spaces and walking trails to immerse yourself in nature.
While the village of Fulford offers students a healthy dose of countryside living, there are plenty of other areas in York that might take your fancy. If you're totally new to York and want to make the most out of your time here, have a look at our student properties in the city centre.
