What's it like in Leicester?

I've just graduated from Leicester uni - it's not a bad city, lots of different cultures and it's fairly friendly. There's a nice bar near the uni, on London Road, called the Lansdowne - it has a good atmosphere and they have a great cocktail list! There are a few good cinemas, and a new shopping centre called Highcross with lots of shops and restaurants.

If you're still there in November, there's a great firework display at Abbey Park on or around the 5th - it'll be advertised online.

Have a great time!

Manchester is a 2 hour trip including a change of train at Sheffield

Leicster is a medium size town with most of the usual facilities.Not particularly exciting. Very multicultural

depends where you go in leicester

its about an hour and half by train to both london and manchester

little over an hour by train from London

fun city to visit, make sure that you visit some of the small pubs on the outskirts of town.

m

2 and a half hours by coach from London victoria, it is a bit boring but depends what part you go to, it's nothing like London,like the shops and activites.
