Fully reserved for 2027-28

We are now fully reserved, pending contracts for the academic year of 2027/28. We are of course thrilled for the business, however gutted that we are unable to get your beautiful faces around our properties. We are on the prowl for new properties to bring into our portfolio, so we can offer more of you the chance to join our little Dog House family. Please bear with us, and in the meantime get yourself on our waiting list, so we know you're interested. If anything changes with our availability, which it does from time to time, we will reach out. Sending bundles of love to you all, particularly those who find the news of us being reserved disappointing.

The Dog House Opinion
Student accommodation doesn't have to be grey.

Your bedroom shouldn't just contain a bed.

Your student house should actually feel like home.

Your landlord should pick up the phone. Ours is a family, not a call centre.

After viewing the place looks lovely and homely rather than plain like a lot of the accommodation I've looked at.

New rules for 2027? Don't worry, we've got it covered.

The Renters' Rights Act changes how every student tenancy works. Here's what it means for you, in plain English.

Oh, and your pet can come too.

Dogs, bunnies, a bearded dragon or a therapy pet: with everyone's agreement, they're welcome.
