Living with Host
One beautiful small double room to rent.
It is tastefully decorated with art from all over the world and William Morris wallpaper. The room is bright and sunny and looks out over the pedestrianised street and garden.
You will have access to the kitchen with everything you need, there is also a dish washer and washing machine.
There is a large dining room that you can use. The bathroom has a shower and a bath.
The bedroom is in a Victorian terraced house, on a pedestrianised St with a community garden that you are welcome to sit in and enjoy.
I live with my partner Bayo. He often works from home during the week. He is quiet and respectful of other people's space
I also live with my cat called Florence.
I work 9-5 Monday - Friday, and go to bed early during the week, so the house is a quiet and peaceful place to be.
Guest Parking
Free parking in the surrounding streets, and back lane. There is also free parking next to the dentist on Heaton park view.
The Area and Transport
My house is near the arty Ouseburn area, that is full of great pubs, cafes, restaurants and artist studios. It is an easy walk to the quayside through the Ouseburn to get to the river Tyne, The Sage and The Baltic.
I am a few minutes walk from Heaton park, and 20 minutes walk from the city centre (Northumberland St). I am also on the convenient no 1 bus route that takes you straight to the centre of town, the Theatre Royal, and the train station.
It is easy to get to the Theatre Royal, the Live theatre, Alphabetti theatre and the Northern Stage. You can also get to the Sunderland Empire Theatre and The Customs House in South Shields on the metro.

Lovely short stay in a very cool house!

A wonderful room in a lovely house! The bed was very comfy! It's a cosy room, so it was great to be able to use the kitchen and dining room as well. Thanks for having me!

Lovely room, excellent location and transport links. Hosts were really friendly, communicative and understanding of theatre schedules.
I had a really good week here, thank you.
20th Oct 2024
Cosy and comfortable. Beautiful house in a very nice area of Newcastle, only a short bus ride from the city centre. Meg, her partner Bayo and their cat Florence were very warm and welcoming. Thank you!
25th May 2024
Lovely digs - Megan was very welcoming and it was an easy bus ride straight to the Theatre Royal!
23rd Apr 2024
Very easy transport links to Newcastle theatre Royal. I took the bus in everyday, only a 2 min walk to the bus stop, then 15 mins direct, stopping outside the theatre. Perfect. Florence the cat is a true delight to be with. Megan was super quick to respond and very welcoming. The house is really quirky and the bed was super comfy. On street, free parking available right by the house made it a no brainer. Unfortunately had to leave early due to family emergency, but Megan was very understanding.

6th Aug 2023
Brill peaceful week at Megan’s! I’m often nervous to stay in peoples houses as I feel I have to chat and be “on” but it wasn’t like this at all at Megan’s which I really appreciated. Lovely area with great coffee shops on the doorstep.

Had a great stay here and Meg was a perfect host. Unfortunately didn't get to see her much as clashing timetables. House warm and bed super comfy. Walk very straight forward to the theatre - about 25 min. Would Recommend
