Got a space suitable for student rental?

Become a student landlord

We are looking for accommodation in Camborne, Falmouth, Newquay and St Austell areas for Higher Education (18+) and Further Education students (16-18) studying with the Cornwall College Group.  Do you have a spare room to rent out, a flat or house to rent or do you know anyone in this area who could provide accommodation for our students?

Students study for 1, 2 and 3 years and courses run from September to June.  Secure payments, deposits and references can be obtained. All contracts are between students and landlords.

DBS checks

If you are renting to our 16-18 year olds, you will need to have a Cornwall College enhanced DBS check for every member of your house over 18. Please contact us for more information and help obtaining this.

An enhanced DBS check will cost £44, or if you have a portable enhanced DBS you will just need to provide this information for our HR Department.
