Neighbourhood and local area reviews for renting in Newcastle upon Tyne

The only positive experience of the tenancy was the handy location of the house and the local amenities.

Heaton is a great area, and the house is on a good street. However, it isn't worth going with Abode Living if you can avoid it - there are plenty of other places to rent around Heaton, so keep looking elsewhere.

Lots of bars and Shops. Close to the metro. Near to university (both Newcastle and Northumbria)

Heaton is the typical student and young professional suburb. Plenty of take-aways and good ammenities on Chillingham Road and its near to Asda, Morrisons and Sainsburys. Transport is good, right next to Chillingham Road metro, or the bus #1 goes down Second Avenue into town.

Parklands is a nice area. Access to facilities is good, supermarkets are nearby; access to town via Regent Centre and Wansbeck Road Metro Stations are good as well as buses from the main Great North Road and Regent Centre. The main Park Avenue is used as a through-road and I notice is used by speeding drivers not obeying the 20MPH limit occasionally.
