No more hassle with bills!
As the biggest provider of student accommodation in Cardiff, we offer more properties and house more students than anyone else. We have houses and flats close to every university campus and boast a large portfolio of newly-refurbished student houses. Our properties are accurately-priced for lower and higher-end budgets. Many are offered with a 'bills included in rent' option, saving you the hassle of sorting them out separately. We carry out accompanied viewings until 8pm during our busy periods.
CPS Homes in the local student community
Our first ever branch was in Cathays, so we’ve always had strong links to Cardiff's student community – none more so than through the clubs and societies we sponsor each year. Last year we sponsored more than ten university sides, encompassing over 500 students in total. Our dedicated team will help you settle during your student years in Cardiff.
Welcome to Cardiff!
We host a popular annual 'welcome to Cardiff' food and drink event outside our Woodville Road, Cathays branch each year. Join our Facebook community and stay up-to-date with all the local events we sponsor.

We always go the extra mile for our contract-holders. We're big believers in "if you don't ask, you don't get", so we regularly negotiate extras such as washer-dryers, LED TVs and cool corner sofas!
