Living here
Withington village has a friendly high street of independent cafés, bars, takeaways and everyday shops. The streets are a little calmer than Fallowfield's, which suits final years and anyone who wants a quieter night's sleep.
Getting to uni
The Wilmslow Road buses run straight through Withington to Oxford Road and the city centre, about 20 minutes to the University of Manchester. Withington also has its own Metrolink stop on the East Didsbury line, on the west side of the area, with trams into the city centre. Fallowfield is a short walk or bike ride away.

For landlords · M20
HMO management in Withington.
Own a student house or HMO in Withington? It's one of the areas we cover from our office on Dickenson Road. We find and reference the tenants, collect the rent, handle repairs and keep the licence and safety certificates in date. Or we do just the part you want help with.
HMOs here are licensed by Manchester City Council. A house let to five or more people who form two or more households needs a mandatory HMO licence, and some streets are also covered by selective licensing. Since 2011, turning a family home into a shared house anywhere in Manchester has needed planning permission (an Article 4 direction). We can apply for the licence and keep it in date.
