Lovely place to stay for 3 weeks in Newcastle. Brigid and Charles are lovely hosts. It got chilly in the room through February but rectified with a heater sorted by Brigid. Jesmond is a lovely area full of shops and cafes and felt very safe walking home at night. Only a few stops on the metro to theatre royal. Please keep in mind that you must like dogs! Jarvis is a sweetheart but he does bark every time you come in the door, even late at night. Hosts didn't seem to mind at all. Thanks again!

Lovely to meet you and your double bass, albeit briefly! Do come again if you’re driving north!!
I had a wonderful stay in these digs! The area felt very safe and was a 20 min walk to Northern Stage. The house / room are bright and really feels like a home away from home. Thank you Brigid and Charles (and Jarvis!) X

Great to meet you Sloane and Jarvis says woof!!
A lovely stay in Jesmond with Brigid, Charles and Jarvis. Such a friendly welcome! House is lovely with a beautiful kitchen area. Room is comfortable with great light at the top of the house. If I'm ever coming back to the Theatre Royal I would happily stay again. Thanks, Brigid!

And you would be most welcome! x
The stay was lovely! Jarvis is very cute and loves to come and say hello when you come back after work! Was about a 35 minute walk to the Theatre I found.
Parking is free, however you do need a visitors permit which Brigid uses for a second car, so you may need a little jiggling of cars to make it work. I had absolutely no issues with it at all!
Does get pretty cold as the room is in the loft, but not unbearable by any means. Was actually nice to cool down after a long day!
Would stay again!

Staying in Brigid and Charles' beautiful house was a real delight. They are such a lovely couple, and I felt very much at home. It's an excellent location, in a great neighbourhood. Thank you both, and I really miss Jarvis (the dog)!

So glad you felt at home here .. Jarvis misses his extra walks!
I walked to the theatre each day (about 30 mins). Lovely hosts, beautiful home, comfy bed and the cutest doggy!

It was great spending the week here whilst working at the Theatre Royal which was only a short metro trip away, or a 25 minute walk! Brigid and Charles were both very friendly and considerate of my working hours! The room was very spacious and clean - would definitely recommend to anyone needing somewhere in Newcastle!

It was my first time in Newcastle and Brigid was very helpful with giving advice on where to go & things to do.
Quick & easy walking distance to the theatre.
