Use these established student areas as starting points, then compare each property's rent and route to your university.
Where students live in Falmouth
Areas students actually take rooms in, with the buildings closest to each one. Matched by location, so a building appears under the area it stands in rather than the area its marketing claims.
Falmouth town
A main street running above one of the deepest natural harbours in the world, with the pubs, the beaches and the Maritime Museum. Where most students want to be and priced for it.
- Ocean Viewfrom £180/week
- Maritime Studiosfrom £240/week
Woodlane and Swanpool
Above the town beside Falmouth's own campus, with Swanpool beach below. The short walk if your course is art or design rather than at Penryn.
- Hydrogenfrom £235/week
Penryn
The older town up the creek, cheaper than Falmouth and a few minutes from the shared campus. Its own high street, and quieter evenings.
- The Quarryfrom £175/week
- Carrick Viewfrom £240/week
Tremough
The campus site itself and the halls built around it, shared between Falmouth and Exeter. Nothing else is up here.

What to know before choosing a room in Falmouth
A city-by-city note about the decisions that change your daily routine. Prices and availability remain live in the listings above.
Two things about studying here are not obvious from the name. The main campus is at Penryn, which is a separate town about two miles up the creek, and it is shared: Falmouth University and the University of Exeter both teach on the same site. Falmouth's own Woodlane campus, where much of the art and design happens, is in the town itself above Swanpool. So before you look at a room, work out which of those two sites your course actually uses.

Getting around Falmouth
The U1 and U2 buses run between Falmouth, the Penryn campus and Penryn town constantly in term, and they are what makes living in either town workable; the trip is about ten minutes. The Maritime Line railway runs from Falmouth Docks through Penryn to Truro, where you join the main line, and Truro is about twenty minutes away. London Paddington is five hours, which is the longest journey on this site and worth knowing before you plan weekends home. The hills here are steep and the coast path is better walked than cycled, though the Penryn to Falmouth route along the creek is flat enough.

Frequently asked questions
- 5 buildings in Falmouth publish a starting price, from £175 to £240 a week, and half of them start under £235. They sit unusually close together, so in Falmouth the choice is about location and room rather than price. Each figure is the cheapest room in that building, so compare the room lists rather than the headline.
- Everything we list in Falmouth is in Falmouth town, Woodlane and Swanpool, Penryn, and Tremough. Buildings are filed by their coordinates, not by the area their marketing claims, so the table above puts each one where it actually stands.
- Only 2 of the 6 buildings in Falmouth publish it, so this is a city to ask the question in. The other 4 may well include bills and have simply never said so in writing.
