£400 is cheap! Especially inclusive of bills. Is it a bedsit?
Best of luck with it mate, try not to stress yourself out about it. If it's lots more money than you're used to, try to get started with saving right away. One thing I struggle with is being able to put any money into savings, as rent, bills and groceries annhialate my wages every month! If you put the money away after your first pay cheque, you won't 'miss' it next time around. Online banking often allows you to set this all up on the fly, rather than having to enter a bank in person too.
Just a pointer, I wish I had savings now!!
