Residents also get free access to on-site facilities, including a gym, study spaces and social areas.

Your CODE rent includes water and internet, with broadband speeds of up to 500Mbps wired and unlimited uploads and downloads. Electricity is separate, and you can choose between:

• Electricity Excluded contracts – you will be billed monthly for the number of electricity units used and your daily standing charge.
• Electricity Package contracts – your package means your daily standing charge and unit use for the duration of the contract up to a set amount (£720 for 48 week contracts and £765 for 51 week contracts). The majority of students find that with careful use this sees them through the year*.

In simpler terms, rent includes water and internet; electricity is an additional choice.
