Hope this is ok for the snug?
I was wondering if anyone has local knowledge on the area around Warwick Uni?
I have been trawling through the internet looking at places for my son. :roll: He is going to the uni as post graduate and needs accomodation and hopefully a job!
He is in Newcastle at the moment, graduated last year and is working as a supervisor in a cocktail champagne bar at the moment.
The course is going to cost a fortune, hes doing International Development and Human Rights, so we need cheap and cheerful accomodation, fingers crossed!
Looking at things I was thinking Earlsdon in Coventry?
We dont know the area at all. If anyone has any ideas, places to stay away from etc I'd love to hear.
Thanks.
Jo :)

He has just accepted the place Peterd. The uni has accomodation but is expensive and they will give to new starters and post grads who have been studying there first choice.
Stu has an online chat with them next week so if I dont find anything out that may be the only root.
I see hes from Durham Rob :) Just up the road from me! We live in Yarm.
