Student Accommodation
in Coventry

You won’t be stuck for things to do in Coventry. If you’re a lover of the arts, head to the Belgrade Theatre to see touring productions, or the Herbert Art Gallery to take in world class art. Coventry is a city with prominent history. Head to the Cathedral where you can visit the Ruined Cathedral, destroyed in the Coventry Blitz in World War 2, which stands proudly next to the iconic ‘new’ Cathedral. Coventry Transport Museum has the largest publicly owned collection of British vehicles on the planet, not to be missed by car fanatics. The city has played a bigger part in the British music industry than some might think – if you’re into your music, Coventry Music Museum is definitely worth a visit. There are many green spaces to explore in the city, including Coombe Abbey, once home to monks and now one of Coventry’s most popular parks; and War Memorial Park which opened in 1921 and is now home to Coventry’s biggest event of the year – Godiva Festival.

Jump on a train at Coventry train station and you’ll find yourself at London Euston station in just under an hour on Avanti West Coast trains. You can also travel for around 40 minutes longer with London Northwestern trains for as little as £4.95 with a railcard.

Named one of the top 10 student cities in the UK, Coventry has a lot to offer when it comes to student accommodation. Students in Coventry live in different places depending on their university. Students at Coventry University tend to live either in the city centre, or in the Earlsdon or Stoke area. Students at the University of Warwick often prefer to live closer to campus, either in the Cannon Park area or on the university’s main campus in student halls.
If shared housing isn’t for you, a studio with everything covered might be. Vita Student offers two buildings in Coventry – Copper Towers and Cannon Park, each within a short walking distance of Coventry University and Warwick University respectively. Think first-class facilities and service. Big apartments and communal spaces. A welcoming student community. All-in student living.

As one of the UK’s most diverse cities, Coventry has lots to offer when it comes to restaurants. Noodle Bar has been a favourite in the city for years and is a great spot for the likes of dim sum, noodle soup, fried rice, and chow meins. The Botanist is a newer addition to the city, taking pride of place in Cathedral Lanes. It’s the perfect spot for mains with a modern twist, and great for drinks in the evening. If you like Korean BBQ, head to Jinseon – just a five minute walk from the Cathedral, Jinseon brings a totally new dining experience to the city centre. My Dhabba is another restaurant popular with locals. Serving traditional Indian and Pakistani dishes at very reasonable prices, it’s the place to be.

Coventry is the birthplace of the Lady Godiva legend, who in the 1040s with her husband is said to have paid for a church in Coventry, built on the site of an earlier building destroyed by the Danes. It is also the birthplace of Britain’s first motor car, built by Daimler in 1987. In 1940, the World War 2 Blitz destroyed much of the city centre. The city is now considered a centre of international peace and reconciliation, was recently named the UK’s City of Culture 2021, and was also a host city for the Commonwealth Games 2022.
