Canonsgrove Hall of Residence – Taunton
Canonsgrove Halls of Residence is available for medical, nursing and dental students who are training at Musgrove Park Hospital in Taunton.
Canonsgrove is owned and operated by Bridgwater and Taunton College. While you’ll be living with other University of Plymouth students in Mendip Block, the site is shared with other medical students from the University of Bristol and with medical professionals working at Musgrove Park Hospital, so you’ll have plenty of people to socialise with.
There are 52 rooms available at Canonsgrove, most of which are en suite rooms in a shared six or seven bedroom flat. Alternatively, if you’d prefer your own space you can choose to book a room in a self-contained two-bedroom flat with shared bathroom facilities.
