We are a small but friendly hall, with about 230 students, around a third of who are returning students. The majority of first year students live in a shared bedroom, although single rooms are also available to first years. Many rooms offer spectacular views of the Old Course and West Sands. All rooms have an internet and telephone connection. There are two study rooms and a computer room, offering plenty of study space. There are also two TV rooms and a large common room providing communal social areas. McIntosh is a catered hall and is renowned for the quality of its food.

One of the advantages of being a small hall is our strong community spirit. There is always a friendly face in McIntosh, and the Wardens, Residential Services Managers, Kitchen Staff and Porters work hard to ensure that McIntosh feels like home. The student committee in McIntosh is active and accessible, and arranges a variety of student-led social events throughout the year, including Hall Quizzes, inter-Hall sport, beach games and much more. The Wardens host cheese and wine evenings several times a semester, with guests from the academic staff regularly invited. The committee also represents any student concerns, and invites all McIntosh residents to join the McIntosh Hall facebook page for more details on hall life and events.
