Neighbourhood and local area reviews for renting in United Kingdom

Great area. Lots of nice shops and transport. Lovely park. Only saw 1 stabbing, which is pretty good for London.

We are staying in the village (no longer renting), so clearly we like it! Micklefield is brilliantly located for Leeds and York, including via regular trains from the village station, as well as almost immediate access to the M1, A1(M), and M62. Despite being just 15 minutes from either of those urban centres, it is very much a village in the countryside. Easy access elsewhere means the village does have relatively few amenities, and the pub has not been open post-pandemic, but there is a primary school, 19th century church, small convenience shop, and highly-rated takeaway, as well as the recreation ground. Popular attraction Lotherton Hall is also within walking distance and accessible via rights of way.

This is an amazing area lots going on in the local village and is pretty quiet and in a convenient place to get on the motorway

I really like Selly. It has a lot of character

Very student based area which is nice, a few things have occurred eg. Car break ins and quite noisy

The area is a student area and so noise and mess is expected. But convenient loacation for the university, town centre and shops. Despite this awful property, I have lived in much nicer houses in this area. Make sure to check out the landlord if the house because many do not care about student tenants at all.

Rough part of a nice town.

Quieter than the part of Selly closer to campus, fantastic transport links (11 bus opposite the front door, 10 min walk to the train), and it's nice being so close to Bournville village.

Nice area, good shops and close to Endcliffe Park. There are just much nicer properties in the area which I suggest you try to find!

nothing else...
