Student Accommodation & Activities in Winter Months

With Winter now on its way in, many students will have already begun preparation, including finding their student accommodation and budgeting for the new academic year. Reflecting on how this year has been, students will want to consider, what they are planning to do next year regarding, their budgeting, learning and living. The race to find the best student accommodation is already here. Read on for hints and tips for the winter months and how to find some great student accommodation and make the most of the winter season. 


 Find the Best Student Accommodation in Birmingham

Make the most of the the months ahead by securing student accommodation now. A good place to start is with Unifreshers' Number 1 Birmingham Student Agent.

Unihousing accommodation gives students easy access to both the University of Birmingham's, Edgbaston Campus, as well as local transport links and the student village of Selly Oak's amenities.  

Give Baking a Try

Eating out is something that a lot of us tend to enjoy. And although enjoying things is generally good for us, it can sometimes not be so good for the student budget. Having something enjoyable to eat that isn’t too expensive would be a welcome idea, which is why giving home baking a try could be something for you to have a think about. There’s obviously going to be heaps and heaps of various books and pieces online with all manner of hints, tips and recipes to help you with home baking, so maybe just find something that gets you excited. And maybe find something that isn’t too challenging if you are new to it.


Whatever you choose to do, the act of creating something and eating it after should be fun and rewarding. It will taste good too, hopefully. Get some of your friends and housemates involved and it can become an activity that brings you all together. It won’t be too expensive either!        

What a Laugh

Fat Penguin is a comedy night that is ideal for students as it not only hosts a number of side-splitting comedians from around the UK to its stage, but it also does not charge for entry. Rather than charging for entry, Fat Penguin instead asks for a donation, with £5 being the recommended donation. Fat Penguin is located in The Patrick Kavanagh Bar, Moseley, and is definitely worth going to. See some quality acts, support the local comedy scene and have a really good laugh in doing so.     
  

The Sunflower Lounge

The Sunflower Lounge may not necessarily be somewhere that’s deemed by all to be perfect for the modern-day student budget, but it’s definitely a place to earmark for a possible night-out. The Sunflower Lounge has its own unique, easy-going ambience, a sense of style and an atmosphere that you don’t exactly find on every street. Sitting neatly within Birmingham City Centre on Smallbrook Queensway, The Sunflower Lounge bubbles with an energy that one might not expect from viewing some of the more grey-looking buildings that stand adjacent to it. The Sunflower Lounge is both a great place to get a couple of drinks with mates and a well-regarded venue for seeing a superb selection of live music. Give it a try and it may become somewhere that you and your friends return to on a regular basis.   
  


Cannon Hill Park and the MAC

Cannon Hill Park is situated just off the Pershore Road, Moseley and is a very pleasant park to visit, especially on a lovely sunny day. Having a nice afternoon at the park might be a perfectly fine way to spend your time, and of course, it won’t really cost you anything. What you might not have realised though is that Cannon Hill Park sits with the MAC right next to it. The MAC- or Midlands Arts Centre- is a diverse place that offers an array of courses and exhibitions. It also has its own cinema, one that sometimes screens a more alternative choice of films. You may just want to head to its cafĂ© for a drink or some food.      

    
The Stage Is Yours!

Another cheap and easy opportunity for entertainment is Open Mic Nights. For Birmingham students, you will be able to get to one of these Open Mic Nights without difficulty, and with the range of acts being sure to vary, you can most likely expect a memorable night. Go with friends, order a drink and maybe even have a go at performing yourself!
