Allensbank House

Cardiff University is working in partnership with this private hall of residence, owned and managed by Liberty Living, which means we are able to offer this hall to Cardiff University students.

Allensbank House is ideally placed for students studying at the Heath Park Campus and is also within walking distance of the Main Campus.

Liberty Living requires all residents to have a UK based guarantor.  If residents do not have a UK based guarantor then full payment of residences fees is required prior to or on arrival at Allensbank House.
