Get outdoors

We have 61% greenspace here, which is the highest percentage of any city in the world. Everywhere is walkable, and 1/3 of the city is in the Peak District National Park, meaning Sheffield is a destination for boulders, climbers, MTBers and runners in its own right. But none of this excludes the culture, cuisine, nightlife and feel that you get from the country's 4th largest city. Ultimately, we think we've got the best of both worlds, smashed together in one amazing place.

Unforgettable nights out followed by gentle walks in breathtaking green spaces. Sprawling shopping centres and proud independents. Most importantly, you’ll find yourself amongst friends in a busy university city that sets you up…
