St Swithuns

St Swithuns I

Closest kitchen is in Swiths 2 and closest washing machines are in Swiths 6


There is a shared bathroom between 3 people, with the toilet and shower in the same room 


St Swithuns II

The kitchen is small but well laid out. Can fit 3 people well, but can sometimes get a bit busy (as there are 8 people in the staircase)


There is only 1 shower and toilet between 8 people spread across 2 floors. The shower is excellent. The toilet is small.


Closest laundry room is in Swiths 6, and it has 2 washing machines and 2 dryers. Can get a bit busy on weekends, but generally okay. No ironing board or iron though.

St Swithuns III

Small, closet-like kitchen. Can just about fit 3 people in it with limited movement. It is not impossible to cook in the kitchen, but not the best kitchen in college. There are 2 stoves on top of an oven, a fridge and some cupboards. There is also a kettle, microwave and toaster.  Very little but occasionally has its charm. 


One bathroom and shower per floor (separate rooms). They are pretty good and regularly cleaned.

Odd number rooms are bigger but face the street, even number rooms are slightly smaller but face college, which is prettier. Well soundproofed rooms, and sinks in each room (hidden behind closet). Close to library and well placed generally. Very high ceilings which is nice. 

St Swithuns IV

There is a small kitchen on the ground floor with a cooker, a sink, a kettle, a microwave oven and a toaster.


There are two toilets and four showers.  Each bedroom has a washbasin.  There are no other bathroom facilities on the ground floor but the other two floors each have a toilet and two showers.

The rooms vary notably in size and the views from the windows.

St Swithuns V

Good kitchen, only shared between 6 people. Four hobs, an oven, microwave, toaster. Bit of a squish when four or more people but usually fine


Two toilets right at the top of the staircase; the bathroom stalls are a tad small

One shower for whole staircase which is a bit temperamental

St Swithuns VI

Decent sized kitchen, fully functional with all the facilities you’d need. Works well for 2 people at a time, it usually isn't too crowded


There are three bathrooms, two hidden away the ground floor (one by the only room downstairs and one by the laundry) and one main bathroom on the first floor with a large window

There are three decent showers right near the nurse surgery, the first one with a window is the best


Very easy access to the laundry room at the bottom of the staircase, which is very convenient. It has 2 washing machines and 2 dryers. Can get a bit busy on weekends, but generally okay. No ironing board or iron though.


Very popular among third years
