Another popular option is to 'buddy up' and find private student accommodation. Bristol is fortunate to have a large student community, with private landlords opening their houses for students to rent as individuals or in small groups. Private landlord fees vary depending on location and house type. However, savings can be made by splitting bills/living costs.
