Private student accommodation in Exeter offers a genuine alternative to university halls. With off-campus housing, you choose your housemates, your area and your budget – whether that's a shared house in Pennsylvania, a city-centre flat, or a private studio with bills included. Most private student lets in Exeter are managed by local letting agents like Gillams Properties, meaning you get face-to-face support, regular inspections and clear contracts throughout your tenancy.
Off-campus student accommodation is typically available from September to September, with viewings and reservations opening from late autumn the year before. Popular areas near the University of Exeter include Pennsylvania, St Davids, Mount Pleasant and the city centre. For students at specific campuses, explore our dedicated pages for accommodation near Streatham Campus and accommodation near St Luke's Campus.
Finding the right student accommodation in Exeter is one of the most important decisions you'll make during your time at university. Whether you're a first-year looking for your first student house, or a returning student searching for the perfect flat near campus, this guide covers everything you need to know about renting in Exeter for the 2026/27 academic year. If you're mainly comparing shared houses for groups, see our Exeter student houses.
Exeter offers a wide variety of student housing options to suit different group sizes and budgets. Shared houses are the most popular choice for groups of 3-10 students, offering communal living spaces and individual bedrooms. Student flats are ideal for smaller groups of 2-4, with self-contained facilities. For those who prefer privacy, studios provide a complete living space for one person, while ensuite rooms give you a private bathroom in a shared house setting.
The best areas for student accommodation depend on which campus you'll be studying at. For Streatham Campus, Pennsylvania is very close, while St Davids and Mount Pleasant are within easy walking distance. For St Luke's Campus, city centre and Heavitree offer the shortest commutes. Each area has its own character, from the leafy residential streets of Pennsylvania to the vibrant city centre nightlife.
The Exeter student housing market moves fast. Properties for the next academic year typically start appearing in October/November, with the busiest viewing period running from November through February. If you wait until Easter, the best houses in popular areas will already be taken. We recommend forming your group early and starting viewings as soon as properties become available.
Gillams Properties student houses typically offer two pricing options: base rent (manage bills separately) or all-inclusive (gas, electricity, water, high-speed broadband and TV licence bundled in). No fair usage caps on the all-inclusive option. Choose what works best for your group. Full-time students are exempt from Council Tax.
Once you've found a property you love, you'll need a UK-based guarantor (usually a parent or guardian) who agrees to cover rent if needed. International students without UK guarantors can discuss alternative arrangements with our team. After signing the tenancy agreement and paying a security deposit (capped at 5 weeks' rent), you'll receive your move-in date and key collection details.
