From student digs to flat shares and HMOs. Here’s our guide for all you need to know about student accommodation at WaterBear.
WaterBear does not provide student accommodation directly. However, we work closely with a number of local agencies in Sheffield to help source the best possible accommodation for you. Sheffield is a busy student town as there are 2 large universities in the city, so there is plenty of student accommodation to choose from. However, that means there will be lots of other students looking for accommodation too, so we recommend anyone needing accommodation to start the search and register with local agencies as soon as possible.
We work with the following property agencies to help source accommodation in Sheffield.
