Why Writtle House?

Why Writtle House?

Established in 1917, Writtle House was first known as the London Aerodrome Hotel and then renamed The Royal Air Force East Camp Officers' Mess. Back then, it used to be a short-stay hotel for people flying from the now RAF Museum, and it was sometimes even used by the Royal Family!
Now, it offers a green and quiet living environment within walking distance of campus.

You'll be close to local parks and the StoneX Stadium, home to our West Stand state-of-the art nursing and midwifery training facilities and the local rugby team, Saracens.

"I have found it to be an incredibly clean, safe and friendly environment. The front of house staff as well as Resident Assistants have made the stay much more enjoyable as have been happy to help with any problem I have had."
Jack Simm, BA Product Design
UK student

Hey guys, today's weather is really rainy, as you can tell, but I'm here outside Rital House and I'm going to visit my friend Marta, she's from Portugal and a second year student, BA graphic design. So she's going to show us around the accommodation and what living in Rital House is like.  

 

Rital House is a bit more for mature students, it's a bit quieter and there are less rooms in the building. Hey, how are you? Nice to have you here. Should you come in? Yeah, let's go. If you just sit down the hall there, we also have a sort of common room where we have a pool table and a TV.  

 

Right, here's the study room here in Rital. This is where we all come out and there are assignments and a lot of late -night study sessions. This is my flat and I share eight other things out. Here is my room.  

 

Thank you. came with the wardrobe, the bed, this little shelf, the desk and the chair and then I just try to bring in my own things like the bedding, the posters, and my books to make it feel more like my room.  

 

In here, it's just where I keep my jackets, my bags, and the things that I use the most. Here is a little board that I usually have posted with the things I have to do. Thank god I don't have that much to do right now.  

 

This is a project for uni. This is also an experiment I did this year. Total apocalypse. It's not. Yeah, that's decent. I mean, this is actually the best it looks. It's very tidy right now with all the size organization.  

 

It's not like this all the time. So these are my jackets. They're called Eenie, Meenie, Miney and Moe. So there's the second tiny hallway where there are three more bedrooms. So this is the second shower room and I share both the showers and both the bathrooms with eight other people.  

 

And you might think that was a lot but actually we have really different schedules and since the showers are separate from the bathrooms we actually get along really well with it. There's no problems at all.  

 

I'm hungry. I never looked but I feel like it's pretty good since there's Miney who's living here. We actually have a pretty big pitch upgrade to a lot of the people that live here, and we have quite a lot of reaches and freezers, so we've never really had problems with space.  

 

What side of the camera left? Don't get me! So that's all to the room tour, I hope you enjoyed watching it, yeah I hope you liked the little room tour. See you! Bye!
