Virtual tour
Join Meenal and Vlad as they take you on a tour of the Lancaster University campus. Discover the learning facilities, accommodation, sports facilities, welfare, cafes, bars, parkland and more.
Make your home on campus in our award-winning accommodation. Take your pick from en suite rooms, standard rooms, townhouses, studios and family flats. Whichever you choose, you'll be welcomed into one of our friendly colleges.
Our student ambassador Maria takes a look at how different students have decorated their campus rooms and made themselves a home away from home.
Students in the Library
Our campus is made for learning. Our library, in the heart of campus, has 1,300 technology-enabled workspaces and is built around a central atrium filled with natural light - home to our library's indoor tree.
As well as our library, you can head to the Learning Zone for relaxed group working spaces available 24/7, a learning lab for computers and printers, or to our woodland pods when you feel like a calm space away from it all.
However you like to take time out from your studies, Lancaster has you covered with lots of facilities and opportunities to help you socialise, chill and keep fit.
Our Sports Centre recently doubled its capacity with a new, purpose-built extension. We now have four sports halls, an Olympic-size swimming pool, gymnasium, sauna, climbing wall, and all-weather pitches for football, netball and more.
Lancaster houses many cafés, takeaways and restaurants where you can grab everything from a cake and coffee to a full meal. From high-street names to independent restaurants and our own eateries, there is something to suit any taste.
Each of Lancaster's nine colleges has a bar, providing a social hub for you and everyone else in your college. These bars often serve food as well as drink, and host many social events including sports tournaments.
The Lancaster University campus occupies a beautiful 578-acre parkland site at Bailrigg. With it's own lake, woodlands and rolling green lawns, the campus is the perfect place for a relaxing stroll or a picnic with friends.
The Chaplaincy Centre is a welcoming and engaging place for people of all faiths and for people with none. The Centre offers pastoral support, space to ask big questions, and a quiet space to reflect or just be still.
We believe that Lancaster is everything a university should be. We support you through your studies, research and career.
