Pantycelyn

Pantycelyn was first opened in 1951 and became a Welsh medium hall in 1974. Following a substantial refurbishment, the building now offers a range of contemporary spaces for student and University life. Some of the communal areas are for exclusive use by Pantycelyn residents. There are also study, meeting, rehearsal and relaxation rooms available for all non-residents to book.
