In their words

What Preston students say

★★★★★

“The Tramshed is a great place to live. The staff are very helpful and knowledgeable but they also take their time to explain things to you and always go out of their way to help. The events always seem really fun and the building is always so clean and tidy. I couldn’t recommend the Tramshed more!!”

Olivia
★★★★★

“The staff at the Tramshed are the best student accommodation staff you could ask for. The maintenance team is always fixing things to make you feel proud of where you live. The events that take place are the best out of any student accommodation in Preston. They’ve even launched a student run club for residents.”

Brendan
★★★★★

“The Tramshed is a really nice place to live, the rooms are spacious and feel very homely. Mikey, Holly and Amy are all brilliant and help fix any problems as soon as they happen. They also arrange fun events giving everyone an amazing opportunity to meet people. I would definitely recommend it!”
