Nottingham was very different to what I expected; it's not an expensive city and it's much more developed than I had realised. It's as cheap to live here as back home!

Nottingham is the best place to be for student life. There are lots of fun activities like mini golf, and the cinema is close by. It’s just a very social area. Everything is central and easy to get to.
