Neighbourhood and local area reviews for renting in Newcastle upon Tyne

Kingston Park is a mature residential neighborhood. The property is very well situated, with excellent transport links, great local facilities, and extensive shopping outlets. To top it off our neighbours were such lovely people.

posh, quiet and clean.

Jesmond is the best area of Newcastle, certainly is beautiful with tall trees, victorian houses and many shops and cafes. However student areas tend to be very neglected, with landlords and students not removing weeds, so front of houses look horrible, I cleared up moss and placed flowers, but rest no good. Back roads (rubbish bins roads) are the kingdom of trush and rats... All of this for over £750 per month!!!

Area is good for transport, shops, food and pubs, parking not so good.. bust road outside of property.

Not safe at all. Witnessed many fires, fights, and other destruction of property from our window.

Busy, good for kids, short walk to shops, school and nursery, park right next door, all good

Really do enjoy this bit of heaton and the upstairs neighbours are nice but a fair few break in attempts (just trying the door)

Noise. If I could give them a zero, i would. Non professionals which do not attend to your needs and their customer service is horrible. To add to all that i was out of town when they had one of their viewings-as i am leaving them obviously!!- and the agent did not lock the door!! I only came back two days after to see that my door was open. Criminal at least!!!! Would not recommend it to my worst enemy!

Jesmond is a lovely area of Newcastle upon Tyne. Its perfect for students however, can be expensive. There are lots of bars, restaurants, takeaway shops, and pubs, however, there is not much provision in terms of grocery shopping - only a small Waitrose, a Sainsbury's local, and a small Tesco metro. There are 2 metro stations in Jesmond (Jesmond and West Jesmond station), however, it is only a short walk into the center of town and to the unis. Jesmond dene and Town moor are easy to access and are both lovely, especially in the summer.

Fine neighbourhood. Easy access to city centre, local pubs etc. didn't stay in the flat long enough to really experience it.
