The communal areas at Dun Holm House are my favourite because they helped me to connect with other residents staying in the building. We used to play a lot of games in the common space. Had a wonderful stay throughout my college years.

I was looking for a peaceful yet vibrant student accommodation and got to know about the En-suites of Dun Holm House. These rooms are amazing because I have my personal room, a washroom, but with a communal lounge and kitchen. It offers a perfect mix of private and social life.
