Step into Lola's room in Polden

If you’re checking out this article, chances are you’re either thinking about choosing Polden for your first year or you’ve already secured your place for September. No matter where you stand, it's a smart move to learn as much as you can about what the rooms are like at the accommodation. That way, you'll be all set to make your stay as amazing as possible.

Check out the video above as Lola gives useful insight into how she set up her ensuite bedroom.

The key to a smooth moving-in experience, is to consider how you can make your situation feel like home. Most rooms in Polden are similar with the same bed, ensuite and desk set up, but all rooms will need to be treated like a blank canvas you can make into your own.

Think about what stuff you need that can fit in your room and make you feel happy living there. Fairy lights, maybe? Or photos for your pinboard? There are many possibilities but before you move, start to think of how you can turn your room into what you want.

Hopefully Lola's experience will help you make the right decisions but if you want to know more, you can always email reslife@bath.ac.uk who are always happy to help.
