    where are you looking to live do you know? im looking to move to a place more closer to cluain Mhuire campus with a mate and the houses around tara grove and welpark road are sold as a unit and not per room,if you get my drift,if a group of four move to a house it can work out just over 50 yoyo a week which isn't bad

    Hey guys, I'm going into my second year in FTV in Cluain Mhuire. Just a heads up, Tara Grove is a ****hole. I lived there last year. The houses are FREEZING. Remember that particularly cold spell of a winter we had? Yeah, could see my own breath even when I was wearing hoodies, trousers and two duvets.
    Also we have a double room going in the docks which is about a 20 min walk from there. It's 300pm. Which is a really good deal for what you're getting right in the centre of town. If you think you can tolerate a few parties and music and such then please do message me as we need to find a housemate. :)

    Tara Grove is fine i lived there last year, it's only cold if your too stingy to put on the oil. Very handy for the art college also as you're right beside it

    sorry to drag an old thread but hoping to get into gmit for this coming sept and will be most deffo b looking for somewhere to stay - coming from wicklow.

    i'll b 26 yrs old. but at the same time i don't know a soul, don't know the area, wouldn't have to foggiest where to look for accommodation etc (particularly the private type). it'l be my first year and am already stressed to the eyeballs trying to make sure everything is in place so i would be looking for the most stress free way of finding decent accommodation. i also can't be legging it back and forth across the country time and time again to look at places, the cost of petrol and whatnot is just to great. cost me the bones of €70 to come across for my interview there last week!

    cheers for all the help in advance

    Hey hdowney, ill be starting in gmit as a mature student myself so i know the feeling,but i know Galway pretty well.Your prob not interested in the student villages but if you are there as follows, glasan, gleann na ri, cuirt na rasai and tir na capall a quick google will give you there websites.
    If you go to gmitsugalway.com there is an accommodation list on there with lots of houses/rooms etc.Also daft.ie and galway advertiser will be very handy too.
    Hope this hepls anyway.

    Hey guys.

    I just got accepted from GMIT into a Film & Television course. I'd be moving up from Meath so it's a bit of a jump.

    I was just wondering if anyone could recommend/give opinions on near by student accommodation, especially for the Cluain Mhuire campus.

    Or f anyone is needing a new room mate looking to share that would be great.

    Cheers

    Hi,

    I noticed that the GMIT Student Accommodation apartments, Ceann Boirne is not listed as one of the accommodation options. Ceann Boirne is a fairly recent development of student apartments and is located directly across the road from the GMIT on Ballybane road which is kind of handy.

    You would be better off looking for a room in a regular house in Well park or bohermore a lot of the student villages are far from cluain mhuire unless you plan on cycling or driving there. I lived in Glasan the first 2 years it opened and had a ball and met so many people but it is a good 15-20 min walk and in the winter weather thats not fun.
