Student Houses in Hyde Park, Leeds (LS6)

Almost every student house in Hyde Park sits inside LS6, framed by Hyde Park Corner to the south, Woodhouse Moor ("Hydey") to the east, and Cardigan Road to the west. It's the closest properly residential student area to both universities, which is why groups of 4, 5, 6 and 7 tend to move here for second and third year.

The streets we let on most often are Brudenell Road, Brudenell Grove, Ash Grove, Chestnut Avenue, Hyde Park Road, Queen's Road, Cardigan Road, Harold Grove and Royal Park Road. Terraces here are typically three-storey, back-to-back or through-terrace, with two reception rooms downstairs and a cellar — so it's easy to fit five or six friends without living on top of each other.

Walk times to campus are short: Parkinson Building is around 10 minutes from Hyde Park Corner, and Leeds Beckett's Headingley campus is a similar 10-15. The 1 and 6 buses run down Cardigan Road and Woodhouse Lane every few minutes if you'd rather not walk in the rain.

For nightlife and food, you've got the Brudenell Social Club, Hyde Park Picture House, Bakery 164, Doner Summer and the strip of takeaways on Hyde Park Corner all on your doorstep. Sainsbury's on Brudenell Road handles the weekly shop.

Hyde Park itself — Woodhouse Moor — is the big green space students use for barbecues, five-a-side and the summer Hyde Park Unity Day. The shops and cafés along Woodhouse Lane and Hyde Park Corner mean you rarely need to go into town for everyday things.

Every Based in Leeds student house in Hyde Park is let bills included* — gas, water and electricity are covered in the weekly rent, so a group only has one payment to think about. Wi-Fi and TV licence are not always included, and each listing says which.

Tenancies are rolling periodic, set around the academic year, and houses for 2027/28 are let to whole groups. Viewings run through the autumn and winter, and the most popular Hyde Park streets tend to go first, so it's worth booking early once your group is decided.
