Testimonials from last year's group (July twenty four to July twenty five):
"16 Boyd Street is a fantastic house which really sets the standard for what proper student housing should be like. Not only did it offer a prime location for my third-year studies, but also small things such as the fact that the surfaces in the kitchen are super easy to wipe down make the living experience very comfortable. Everything has been thought of. Stephen is a great landlord who is very personable, but is also always on hand to help with any issues without passing blame onto his tenants which has made life a lot less stressful. I would strongly recommend this house."
Kit Collins
"I thoroughly enjoyed my last year in Durham and 16 Boyd Street was pivotal to this. Stephen was the loveliest landlord, always around to help (even with a dissertation interview!) and constantly looking to improve our experience as tenants. The outdoor furniture was a favourite of mine, allowing us to enjoy a morning breakfast or evening drinks outside. I honestly can’t fault the house - even the smallest things like security cameras for extra safety and the front door light with the hanging basket certainly don’t go under appreciated. With its clean, modern interior and its proximity to the library, there is simply no better place for a Durham student to call home!"
Michael Lammie
"Not only is 16 Boyd Street a lovely house to live in with a brilliant location, but it has a feeling of warmth to it, making it a comfortable place to live. Stephen is an extremely attentive, reliable and accommodating landlord. I’d highly recommend Stephen and 16 Boyd Street to those who wish to be closer to the Library and Science Site, but who also desire a fresh, calm space to live in."
Aya Scarth
"Living at 16 Boyd Street has been an extremely enjoyable and relaxing experience, partly due to the beautifully furnished and perfectly located house, but also because of the efforts of the landlord, Stephen, to make our lives as easy as possible. On the very rare occasion that problems occurred, Stephen never failed to fix them as quickly as possible at one of his frequent visits. 16 Boyd Street is a lovely house which, along with Stephen’s support, greatly added to my successful final year in Durham."
Archie Howlison
"It was a pleasure to live at 16 Boyd Street for my final year. The location is ideal, next door to the library and just a short walk to town, and the house itself is very nicely done - it doesn't feel like typical student living! Stephen was an excellent landlord, always quick to resolve any issues, attentive to our needs and very fair, always having our best interest at heart. Thanks, Stephen!"
