Bills Included Student Houses in Exeter (2027/28)

Choose your rent type:

All-inclusive option – one weekly price per person including gas, electricity, water, broadband and TV licence.
Rent-only option – rent price per person; utilities arranged and paid separately (details confirmed during booking).

Avoid surprise bills and split-the-payment stress. Gillams student houses in Exeter typically offer an all-inclusive option so your group can pay one weekly price per person that includes gas, electricity, water, broadband and TV licence. Prefer to manage utilities yourselves? A rent-only option is also available, where bills are arranged and paid separately (we'll confirm the exact setup during booking).

All-inclusive is popular with groups because it makes budgeting predictable and helps avoid housemate disputes — especially in larger houses. Use the links below to browse by bedrooms and area, then check each property page for the two pricing options and what's included.

  • Electricity

Rent-only vs all-inclusive: which is better for groups?

All-inclusive is easiest for budgeting and avoids "who owes what" disagreements. Rent-only can suit groups who prefer full control of suppliers and usage. Both options are available on every property — check the property page for the two prices and booking details.
