Accessible Bradford

Bradford is situated right in the heart of England with excellent road, rail and air links with the rest of the country and within striking distance of Leeds, Manchester and some of the other great Northern metropolises.

The city lies nestled among some of the most spectacular landscape is England. Ten minutes in a car or on a train will take you into beautiful rolling countryside, which boasts two World Heritage Sites - Saltaire Village, and the 12th century Fountains Abbey.

"One of the best things about Bradford is that it is accessible. The surrounding villages are beautiful too and there is some outstanding architecture. The moors are very close by and definitely worth a visit and there are some very nice parks to visit during the day. You can hear lots of genres of music in the evening and there are loads of good places to eat and drink near campus."

Gareth Knight - Cybernetics and Virtual Worlds

"Bradford is close to Leeds and Manchester and of course the Trafford Centre. It's great being so central to everything. It's also really cheap to live here and there are a good range of bars close to campus."
