## Key Facts
All figures below are Bayt's own published property data unless a source is named. Checked 28 July 2026.
- Rent: published Lancaster rooms in shared houses are £125 to £139 per person per week; the self-contained North Road studio is £229 per week. All bills included. Six of the fourteen published listings carried an individual price on that date — three shared houses, the studio and two individually let rooms, one of those rooms inside the nine-bedroom Gregson Road house that is also listed; the other eight were marked under offer and are not priced individually.
- Bills included covers the home's utilities — electricity, water, heating (gas where the home has it) and fast broadband — with TV licence support and free laundry access where the property provides them. The exact package is itemised on each listing and confirmed in writing before signing.
- Portfolio: 14 published listings — eleven whole homes from 3 to 20 bedrooms across Queen Street, North Road, King Street and Penny Street (city centre), Gregson Road and Meadow Street; the North Road studio; and two individually let rooms (one inside the nine-bedroom Gregson Road house, one in a shared Queen Street house). Eight of the eleven whole homes have six or more bedrooms; the largest has twenty.
- Amenities are described in each property description rather than as filters: seven of the fourteen published listings mention parking, and seven mention bike or cycle storage.
- Walk to the University of Cumbria Lancaster campus (Bowerham Road, LA1 3JD): about 8 minutes from Gregson Road, 12 from Queen Street, 13 from Penny Street, 15 from North Road and King Street, 25 from Meadow Street.
- Lancaster University: the Bailrigg campus is about three miles from the city centre, around 20 minutes on the signed cycle route, with the 1/1A a direct connection every 10 minutes and services 100, 4, 4X, 40, 41 and 42 taking the total to 14 buses an hour Monday to Saturday until 7pm (Lancaster University).
- Deposits are protected through the Tenancy Deposit Scheme, one of three government-approved schemes for England and Wales. GOV.UK requires a deposit to be protected within 30 days of receipt, with free dispute resolution if deductions are contested.
- Accreditation: Lancaster University Homes approved. The scheme is wholly owned and administered by Lancaster University, which states that accommodation accredited with it is approved by Lancaster University, the University of Cumbria and Lancaster City Council (Lancaster University).
- Membership: National Residential Landlords Association, whose Code of Practice members are required to observe (NRLA).
- Council Tax: a household where everyone is a full-time student does not pay Council Tax; the exemption may have to be applied for (GOV.UK).
- Tenancy law: GOV.UK states that the Renters' Rights Act 2025 abolished assured shorthold tenancies in England on 1 May 2026. New private tenancies are assured periodic tenancies with no fixed end date, endable by the tenant on two months' written notice. This is general information, not legal advice.
