University Essentials in Monks Cross

York is a compact, walkable city wrapped in its old walls, with the centre, the river and student-friendly areas all close together. The Shambles and surrounding streets cover the everyday shops, with supermarkets and local grocers nearby for the weekly food shop. Getting around is easy on foot or by bike, and buses and the train station are handy for trips home. When you need a break, the walk along the city walls, the Museum Gardens and the riverside paths give you plenty of green space. Setting up a new room or shared house is simpler with the basics sorted early, from bedding and storage to a kettle and a study lamp. Realised you are missing something once you are in? Order ahead and pick it up from an Argos Collection Point close to the centre.
