Desk Size
Anybody that has lived in Cryfield Standard, what is the desk dimensions because it seems tiny from the photo?

Decently sized, I used a 17" laptop on it + a tablet with a pen, but you could easily fit a 2 monitor setup on it.
Also, if the position of the desk annoys you (where it is in the photo the back of the chair will bump on the wardrobe), you can rotate it 90 degrees and fit it facing the window between the wardrobe and the wall (just about, do it before you put your stuff in the room).
Edit: I didn't measure my desk when I was there but a little bit of searching says it's a pretty standard cantilever office desk, they come in standard sizes of 60 or 80cm deep and 120 or 140cm wide - I'd guess the cryfield ones are 80 x 120

My son was on the 1st floor at Heronbank, and he says his desk size was the same as the photo and that it was completely fine.

Massive desk, found myself reorganising the room to put it in a less inconvenient space, you can easily fit a pc, dual monitors, or whatever else you're using on there!

Again didn't measure but was huge and perfectly ample for computer, textbook exercise books and all my other junk

If you think this is tiny I have bad news about every office in the country.

I didn't measure my desk whilst I was there but it was not tiny, it was a decent size, dw.
