    I looked at the Ravenhill also but did not know much about it.

    Is it similar to the Ormeau road?

    The Ravenhill Road would have less student acc than ormo road it always hadstreets with both housing exec and private houses think there is a couple of housing assocation developments on it which maysuit you.Once you come up to the start of the ormo park theres no shops etc just the petrol station so quiet for kids.Central to all of places in city centre Ormo Road would be .You could send your child to a school on either the ormo or ravenhill as they run parallel so you can either walk thru ormo pk or thru a street to reach other road. Our first house was on ravenhill road now live in carryduff and would move back down tomorrow getting sick of saintfield road traffic in mornings.Sill

    Really depends where.

    Can you swap for a housing association one? Would it cost more?

    I would prefer Housing Association, they usually are more expensive.

    Here are a few for rent, might give you an idea of the room layouts etc. Beware the fisheye lenses though, agents are very fond of them! :D

    I agree with the suggestion that you visit at different times of the day, and on different days of the week.

    Thanks for the link.
