Brackenhurst Campus, part of Nottingham Trent University, offers a stunning rural setting ideal for students studying animal, environmental, and agricultural sciences. The campus provides hands-on learning with excellent facilities. The pros are that is is a beautiful piece of land, with many views, and that it is a very tight- knit community due to being an isolated part of the university. The transport and nightlife can be limited so preparation is key. Overall, Brackenhurst is perfect for students who love nature, hands-on learning, and a close community—but it may feel a bit isolated for those seeking a busy city lifestyle.

I live in a premium suite and the bed is great as it has storage underneath to hide away all extra bits and bobs you don’t need out. The shower is spacious and the bathroom is sleek looking and spaces to put your products and necessities. The desk is great with lots of storage around it to keep your pens, notebooks and things. The kitchen has all your needs including fridge and freezers, cupboards and drawers for everyone and sofas to spend time with friends. The cleaner comes every morning to take out and change the bins and once a week to clean it properly.

There are issues with car parking. Students may be unable to pay for a parking permit and alternative options are not given. Alternatives result in walking on dark country roads. Can be fined for parking outside the flats without a disabled badge. Despite this, the maintenance team are very quick and responsive to any problems students may have. Whether than be electrical issues or there’s problems with the furniture and I cannot fault them
