#1 Student Lettings Agency
Finding the right student accommodation in Lincoln is one of the biggest steps you’ll take before starting university. With thousands of students moving here each year to study at the University of Lincoln or Bishop Grosseteste University, the city has become a lively student hub with a wide range of housing options to suit every lifestyle and budget.
At Student Housing, we specialise in making the process simple — with all bills included in your rent, local branches in the city, and a team of former students who know exactly what you’re looking for.
Lincoln is one of the UK’s fastest-growing student cities. It combines a historic, picturesque backdrop with modern facilities, a buzzing nightlife, and a friendly community. Unlike bigger cities, Lincoln is compact and affordable, meaning you’ll spend less time travelling and more time enjoying your university experience.
Students love Lincoln for:
A strong sense of community with thousands of fellow students.
Affordable rent compared to larger cities like Nottingham or Leeds.
A safe, walkable city centre with everything close by.
A mix of historic charm and modern living.
When searching for student housing in Lincoln, you’ll find plenty of choice:
Shared houses are the most popular option for Lincoln students. These terraced homes are often found in student-friendly areas like the West End and Monks Road. They’re perfect if you want a sociable environment with friends, and they usually include spacious kitchens and living rooms.
Modern student flats and apartments are typically located around the city centre and Brayford area. These are great if you want to live close to shops, restaurants, and the University of Lincoln campus.
Lincoln also has a number of purpose-built blocks designed specifically for students. These often come with extras like gyms, study rooms, and cinema spaces — but usually at a higher price.
First-year students often choose university halls, but many move into private student houses or flats from second year onwards. With private renting, you’ll often get more space and flexibility — plus, with Student Housing, your rent includes all utilities, so there are no hidden costs.
Where you live in Lincoln can shape your entire university experience. Here are some of the most popular student areas:
West End – A classic student area filled with terraced houses, friendly neighbours, and a short walk to campus. Search West End student houses.
Monks Road / Arboretum – Affordable student living, close to the city centre and ideal for students on a budget. View Monks Road accommodation.
High Street / City Centre – Perfect for nightlife lovers, with modern apartments and quick access to shops, bars, and restaurants. Explore High Street student housing.
Uphill / Bailgate – A quieter, historic area with stunning views of the cathedral and castle. This area tends to be more expensive but offers a unique experience. Browse Uphill accommodation.

Lincoln is known for offering great value for students compared to many other UK cities.
Shared student houses in areas like the West End or Monks Road are often the most affordable.
Modern apartments and PBSA tend to be higher in price but include more facilities.
At Student Housing, all our properties come with bills included — covering electricity, gas, water, heating, and even the TV licence. That means you’ll never have to worry about unexpected costs or splitting bills with housemates.
Start early – The best houses are usually booked between November and February for the following academic year.
Book viewings – Photos are helpful, but nothing beats seeing the property in person.
Check what’s included – Ask whether bills are covered in your rent.
Understand your tenancy agreement – Make sure you know the length of the contract and your responsibilities.
