West Park Villas

A short walk from the City Campus with parking available for residents, West Park Villas can accommodate up to ten flatmates

West Park Villas

Located halfway between our City Campus and our Ninewells Campus, West Park is just off Perth Road in Dundee's West End. With plenty of local amenities as well as easy access between campuses, it's a great option for students who want to live off-campus.

Up to 10 flatmates can stay in each West Park Villa, making them ideal for larger friend groups who want to live together after first year.

West Park also has a shared common room with study areas and large-screen TV, table tennis, pool, air hockey, darts, and board games. Regular cinema nights and other events are held free of charge for student residents. There is also a separate study room.

In your kitchen

Our spacious modern kitchens provide plenty of space for cooking, dining and socialising. They come furnished with:

  • lockable cupboard for each flatmate
  • oven
  • hob
  • microwave
  • kettle
  • fridge-freezers
  • dining area

You'll need to bring

  • plates
  • bowls
  • cutlery
