About this property
Lovely Two Bedroom Flat in the VERY CENTRE of Newcastle
Whether you're in Newcastle for work, going to a game at St James's Park, taking in a concert, tackling the Great North Run, planning a weekend of sightseeing, enjoying a chilled getaway with family or friends or just fancy a three day bender in the Toon's famous party venues then this apartment is about as close to the action as you can get. The flat is less than a five minute walk from Central Station offering easy connections to all parts of the country or to Newcastle Airport.
There are plenty of parking options within easy reach, including a NCP £11 per day facility just round the corner. If you're staying on Friday and Saturday we can even chuck-in a free on-street parking pass.
The property is a spacious, light two bedroom second floor flat in an Art Deco style building in the heart of Newcastle's famous Bigg Market. That is IN THE CITY CENTRE, not 'close to' or 'on the outskirts', so no standing around for hours, jostling and fighting in queues for a £15-20 taxi ride.
There are two double bedrooms (both with secondary glazing as the nightlife can get quite lively), making the flat ideal for up to four people. Kids are welcome and even pets, subject to prior agreement. Some weekends have a two night minimum stay requirement. However, if you're only looking for a single night, just get in touch and ask.
We offer free high speed wi-fi, tv in each room, a decent hair dryer (the wife insists on that!), towels/bedding, fully fitted kitchen with dishwasher, fridge freezer, washing machine, tumble dryer, a scattering of Amazon Echo devices and a separate drinks fridge.
One bedroom has a king-sized bed and the other a double so no beds crammed into every part of the apartment to make it like a youth hostel dormitory (although if you want to squeeze an extra person in that's OK).
What we DON'T offer are cushions with 'Love' or 'Home' on them, wee sweeties on your pillows, extra cleaning, pet or service fees or ridiculously early check-out times. Another thing we don't offer is views of the Tyne Bridge, but nobody comes to Newcastle just to stand looking at a bridge, do they! However, we do offer great views onto the Bigg Market, which offers a range of cosmopolitan pavement cafes during the day and a famously lively nightlife. If you do want to stare at some iconic bridges the Quayside is just a stone's throw away (you'll have to use your own trebuchet) and all the other city attractions, universities, hospital, theatres, football ground etc are even closer.

The property was in a great place and the hosts made check in and out easy. Easy to visit tourist attractions on foot and perfect for the night life.
Thank you.
Loved the location as it is very central and easy to get to all attractions. Beds were comfy, hot showers and all the necessities for cooking. Although pop world was opposite, the noise was managable and didnt disturb my sleep. Overall we had a great stay at the apartment.
The flat is an oasis in a lively part of town. Everything that you might need is provided. Light and airy living room/kitchen. Very friendly and helpful owners. Highly recommended!

Newcastle stay
More than most VRBO places that we stayed on our trip to England, this one provided snacks and beverages. That is much appreciated when traveling. A clean and comfortable place. The only downside is that the property is adjacent to some serious party places that stay rowdy until morning. Earplugs required.
Nice flat to let. up 3 flights of stairs.. Lift operated but from outside of lift:) Gas leak so gas turned off. no hot water except in shower. Worked for us. Noisy location but with windows closed slept well. On a hot night though...
Excellent stay for premier league match in Newcastle
Our stay could not have been better! Ian and Maggie were communcative in the build up to our trip and so so accomadating. We visited Newcastle from the USA to go to Saint James Park and attend a premier league match. The apartment was in a perfect location within walking distance of the stadium and in the city center. Ian and Maggie were able to receive our tickets and left them with other welcoming goodies upon arrival. Clean,comfortable and charming apartment with everything needed for a short or even long term stay. Thank you Ian and Maggie for everything!!

Thanks Steve. We're glad you enjoyed your whistle-stop visit. The match may not have gone the way you wanted, but it was quite a classic.

We were staying in Newcastle for about two weeks for my parents graduation from university for their PhD. It was my grandmother and my brother and I staying at the flat, and my other family visited daily. It was comfortable, homely, and definitely better than staying at a hotel! We were in a prime area for catching busses, metro, and trains anywhere we wanted to visit, there was great shopping and restaurants everywhere, and the square below was always bustling with activity! Iain and Maggie were very kind to work with and I regret that we never actually got to meet them in person! With the remote check in and check out, we never had any need to. Overall it was a wonderful trip and an amazing stay! If I ever travel with multiple people again, I definitely plan to stay here again if I can!

We're glad you has a good stay in Newcastle. We'd be delighted to welcome you back in the future if you're over this way and, although we have to keep our personal appearances limited due to Paparazzi pressures, we'll definitely meet up with you next time. Iain & Maggie
Fabulous flat - light, airy and very well equipped. Fluffy towels, clean bedding and even a welcome snack box! Location is amazing - right in the middle of town but don’t expect a quiet night! Loved it.
Excellent stay, bit noisy with pop world being opposite but much to be expected in the centre and didn’t bother us as we were in an excellent location to sightsee and people watch and the flat was amazing,modern and clean and the host was brilliant, will definitely recommend to others.
Excellent comms from the beginning which gave peace of mind for the trip and travel arrangements. Superb property in a central area which is convenient for most things. Bars, food, shopping, etc. Excellent attention to detail from very thoughtful hosts made this an incredibly pleasant break. We all agreed (even 7 month old Parker) that we’d love to stay again.
Property is in an ideal location for a night out in Newcastle. The property is exactly as shown in the pictures, very clean and has all the amenities needed. Whilst the property is located directly opposite bars and the square is a thoroughfare for shoppers and revellers the noise is to a minimum..will definitely be staying here again next time am in town.
We stayed at the property during the St. Patrick’s Day celebrations. There was plenty of nightlife to be found if that is your desire. The flat is in a great location for restaurants, train station, pubs, and Newcastle Castle. The hosts have made the flat very cozy and we enjoyed having access to a washer & dryer. There is also a lift available which was very nice since we had several heavy bags. If you are looking for a quiet neighborhood then this flat won’t be for you. It appears to be a regular party scene. We were not disturbed by the noisy patrons, but I can see where some people would be. Overall it was a great spot to explore the city and find great food.
Tastefully furnished, comfy bed and sofa, central location with great bars nearby

About the host
Hosted by Iain
I've lived in Newcastle for over 30 years and my wife has lived here all her life. After selling our house recently we bought this lovely flat and another property so we are able to rent out the flat at times when we're not using it.
Why they chose this property
This flat is about as central as you can get. As well as the location we love the spacious, light-filled living area with windows on two sides allowing endless people-watching opportunities, which can become quite addictive when not enjoying Newcastle's many attractions. Think of Rear Window but without the murder, or the dog being lowered in the basket, or Grace Kelly. The apartment will easily sleep four people and has a large lounge area, so for larger groups staying in separate accommodation this could be an ideal central meeting place for everyone to get together before heading out for the night.
What makes this property unique
You can't get any closer to the nightlife centre of Newcastle. You step out of the front door and you're right in the middle of the city. In the daytime the area offers a variety of relaxed, cosmopolitan eateries, pavement cafes, shopping, relaxed city and quayside walks and a variety of historical sights. The Bigg Market area has a legendary reputation and can be pretty lively at night, which is not everyone's cup of tea, so the bedrooms have extra glazing to help create a more tranquil experience.
