Our rental offer remains very competitive when compared to alternative forms of student accommodation and we are confident our fixed-price, all-inclusive rent provides real value for money for our customers. Hawthorne House will offer high-quality bedrooms, social and study areas, and will be home to a sixth-form academy. It shows Unite Students’ commitment to deliver high-quality student accommodation using sustainable methods. We look forward to furthering our relationship with both University of the Arts London and the London Academy of Excellence.”
