Coventry
Coventry is a friendly city which boasts two universities – meaning that there are students aplenty to socialise with.
Coventry University is situated in the city centre with its square opposite the cathedral and the University of Warwick lies three miles to the south of the city.
Coventry is home to the Warwick Arts Centre. Second in size in the UK only to London’s Barbican, the arts centre comprises an art gallery, a theatre, a concert hall and a cinema.
For shopping, try the Central Six Retail Park near the train station. Within walking distance of the city centre, Central Six has a wide range of shops to explore including Gap, Next, Outfit and a selection of sports shops.
