I'd highly recommend going to university. If I was in your position a few years ago where I didn't have to worry about finance I would have been tempted to go straight into training too - but my university experience has contributed massively to shaping me as a person. It has been invaluable. I've met a vast array of people from a huge variety of backgrounds, I've acquired knowledge and experience that provides topics to discuss at interview and I've had a great time.
I would highly recommend doing a course you enjoy before thinking about flight training!
Best of luck
