Falmer is one of our main campuses and is set in the hills of the Sussex
Downs, five miles from the Brighton seafront.
There are two halls of residence on
the Falmer campus, both offering a similarly high standard of accommodation.
Paddock Field halls have been in operation for several years. Great Wilkins
offers a longer tenancy period of 50 weeks, making
it convenient for European and international postgraduate students.
Facilities on Falmer campus include a sport centre, restaurant, cafe/bar, cash machine and shop. You can also use the facilities on the University of Sussex campus.
Great Wilkins - Falmer
Great Wilkins halls are split into self-contained flats consisting of three to six single en-suite study bedrooms that share a good sized kitchen/communal area.
There are also four self-contained flats with double en-suite bedrooms and a kitchen and lounge suitable for couples who are both students at the University of Brighton.
