More than just a home ... The Gorge
Located moments away from Exeter’s hospitals and University, The Gorge is an exciting new collection of modern, co-living studio apartments to rent.
Co-living is an in increasingly popular lifestyle choice - it offers a combination of contemporary personal and shared social spaces, and a strong sense of community.
What’s more, there is an exclusive discount on offer at The Gorge: Key Workers only pay 80% of market rent rates.
The furnished studios at The Gorge offer a range of different layouts. Every home is integrated with a contemporary kitchen featuring a combi-oven, fridge freezer and hob as well as a Smart TV, storage space and a modern en-suite shower room.
Monthly rent includes utilities as well as Wi-Fi for added convenience.
If you’re applying for the discounted rate, you’ll need to be employed by the following organisations and industries: NHS, health, social & community care, Blue Light services, prison and probation service, education, public transport, Government & civil service, Ministry of Defence, charitable sector, postal, and retail workers in Exeter.
Key Worker residents must also have an income of no more than £36,982 per year to be eligible for the discount. Prices start from £836 per month for a 12-month tenancy with the possibility to extend at the end of your contract.
Community is central to The Gorge. Residents receive complimentary membership of the Belong Residents’ Club and benefit from outstanding social spaces and a regular programme of events such as wine tasting evenings, Christmas tree decorating, pizza socials and quiz nights. Residents also have exclusive discounts and special offers for local shops, bars and restaurants.
A great benefit for Key Workers, the events bring together likeminded people, providing residents with the opportunity to meet each other and form friendships.
Events take place at varied times throughout the day to cater for different shift patterns. Many residents are new to Exeter and are unfamiliar with the area; the Belong Residents’ Club creates an inclusive and supportive environment.
A range of desirable facilities and social spaces are available to all residents. The state-of-the-art gym is well equipped with classes available, while a large communal lounge includes a games area with a pool table.
Residents also benefit from access to a cinema room, TV snug and social kitchen, perfect for catching-up with friends and colleagues after work.
For those who study or might work from home occasionally, bright and modern co-working spaces feature superfast broadband, comfortable seating and a barista-style coffee machine. To make life easy, there is a dedicated Residents’ Team for added support as well as a maintenance service, easily booked via the Residents’ App.

Heavitree Hospital is a two minutes’ walk from The Gorge whilst Royal Devon and Exeter Hospital is just a 17-minute walk from the development. In addition, St Luke’s Campus is just a two-minute stroll away.
