Location, location, location

Everything is on your front door step at Cumberland and this makes us the ideal choice if you are looking for quick and easy access to all educational, sporting, and recreational facilities.

  • Only 420 paces (yes, we counted!) from the University Library (less than a 4-minute walk)
  • 620 paces to the Commerce Building (about 6 minutes away)
  • New World is only a 2-minute walk and the Octagon is only 7 minutes from our front door

In fact you can reach almost any University department in a 6- or 7-minute walk, and reach anywhere in the central city in the same time. Movies, shopping, going for coffee are all a must for residents at Cumberland.
