Location
Francis Drake Hall is located over three blocks and is conveniently situated in the middle of the vibrant University campus. The hall is only five minutes away from the city centre and seconds away from the Students’ Union, library and lecture theatres. It also benefits from having the popular campus restaurant Drake’s Kitchen right opposite, so if you fancy a break from cooking it is the ideal place. There are also other cafés close by, including the Reservoir Café with its lovely view and garden area.
Address: Francis Drake Hall of Residence, James Street, Plymouth, Devon PL4 6AP.
