Riverside Way is the perfect student accommodation in Winchester, just a 10-minute walk from Winchester School of Art and a short bus ride to the University of Winchester.

Popular with both UK and international students, it offers self-contained studios and ensuite rooms with shared kitchens, giving you the choice between privacy and community. International students, including those from China, enjoy nearby Asian supermarkets and restaurants, while all residents benefit from a vibrant, inclusive atmosphere.

Our brand-new communal areas have been completely transformed based on student feedback, creating stylish, modern spaces for every mood; whether you’re catching up over coffee, playing cards or mahjong, or settling in for a relaxed movie night.

For creatives, especially from Winchester School of Art, there’s a dedicated design zone with sewing machines, fabric hangers, and plenty of desk space to bring your ideas to life. Outside, the private courtyard offers a peaceful spot to relax, chat, or enjoy a garden game. Come and explore Riverside Way; it’s more than a place to live. It’s a space to relax, create, and feel at home.

General Manager

I’ve worked in PBSA for 8 years and joined Collegiate in 2021, managing both Cathedral Point and Riverside Way. Having always lived in Winchester, I know the area well and love sharing local tips and recommendations with our students.

I enjoy working with the team to create a warm, welcoming environment, especially for those living away from home for the first time. Outside of work, I enjoy spending time outdoors, going on walks with my family and grabbing a coffee along the way.
