What's it like?

Durham:

Spend your student days walking its cobbled streets, finding hidden gems and popular haunts. Explore Durham University’s Botanic Garden adventure tails. Go on a tour of the Castle. Or explore the UNESCO world heritage site celebrating over 1,000 years of religion, education and pilgrimage.

Staying at The Helix in Wembley Park has been an incredible experience! The accommodation is modern, clean, and thoughtfully designed for students. The rooms are spacious and comfortable, with plenty of storage and a great study space. The communal areas are fantastic – perfect for relaxing or socializing with friends. The location is unbeatable, with easy access to public transport, shops, and restaurants. The staff are always friendly and helpful, making the place feel like a home away from home.
