Christopher was very friendly and clearly communicated when there was an issue that needed sorting with the house (not with the room listing). The room was so light and warm throughout the day. The wifi was strong enough and the shower water pressure was decent. The travel in to town for the Theatre Royal was so simple and quick and the weekly pass (£14.40 at time of writing) is the way to go to save money on your commute. Thank you Christopher. I would definitely stay again
1st May 2026
Thank you Paul for a very generous review. And thank you for your patience when the boiler was off. I hope we might see you again in due course.
Had a lovely stay with Chris. You get the top floor with your own sitting room, kitchen and bathroom. Sainsbury’s a stones throw. And west Jesmond station on your door step so a very easy commute and very affordable. Would return!
28th Apr 2026
Thank you for your review. I'm very pleased that you were comfortable. Come again. Please do.
A favourite place to stay of mine, has everything you need and I look forward to returning
22nd Apr 2026
Thanks Adam. Good to have you with us. Come again next time you are on Tyneside.
Great place to stay for friendliness and convenience, in a great area and with safe parking. Thanks for everything, Christopher!
9th Apr 2026
Lovely room in Jesmond. Super friendly household and very quick travel to the theatre.
3rd Mar 2026
Thank you for the review and thank you for staying with us. Come to us again if you are working in Newcastle again.
Wonderful stay with these two excellent individuals. Felt very welcomed and accommodated. Thank you both!!
25th Jan 2026
Thank you Helena. We loved having you with us. A great aset to our household over the Christmas period.
Fantastic flat. A converted loft space that has everything you need and doesn't feel at all cramped. Access is through the main house but otherwise the flat is self contained. Christopher is an excellent host - friendly, welcoming and accommodating. The flat is a minute's walk to a metro station which leads into the centre of town. Really easy and convenient for getting to the theatre. Sainsbury's also a minute away. Take the metro in the other direction, 20/25 minutes, for a trip to the coast.
24th Nov 2025
Thank you for a lovely review. Very glad you were comfortable. Come back to us any time you are working in Newcastle.
Great little semi-self contained top floor digs, commutable to the theatre in under 15 minutes!
4th Nov 2025

6th Oct 2025
Thank you too, for being the perfect guest. And leaving everything immaculate.
Great top floor flat directly opposite the metro station; the journey to the theatre took me only 10 min. Christopher was very helpful and quick to respond; would definitely book again. Perfect for one person.
30th Sep 2025
Thanks for the review, and thanks for staying with us. You are welcome anytime you are back working in Newcastle.
Such a bright and lovely place to stay, the metro station being a minutes walk from the place was great. Didn’t really see Christopher as he was away for majority of my time there but when he was there was very welcoming and offered any help that could be needed
18th Jun 2025

Lovely stay with Chris and his wife. Both ate wonderfully friendly and supportive. It was a lovely quiet stay at the top of their home. All the amenities you need. Lovely little village in Jeswood to stroll around. The metro into town is 3mins away and drops you 5mins walk to the theatre. Another great Theatre Dig i would visit again.

27th Jan 2025
Thank you for a very kind and generous review.
My second time staying here and it was just as brilliant as I remembered. excellent location, 2 minute walk from the Metro station and 6 minutes on the Metro to Theatre Royal.
Lovely room, comfy bed, great shower and brilliant kitchen facilities with a great living room space. I would highly recommend staying here, one of the best digs around!

Thank you for a very generous review. Come back to us anytime you are working in Newcastle.
I very good place to stay when working at the Theatre Royal
21st Oct 2024
The attic flat in Chris’ house is in a great location - West Jesmond metro 30 seconds away, 10 minutes to Theatre Royal.
The flat has most of everything you need, quite old fashioned but good WiFi and serviceable kitchen. I couldn’t get the bedroom tv to work, but with iPad tv I wasn’t bothered.
The hosts were on holiday so we never met, but communication was excellent and questions/issues answered very quickly.
I had a comfortable stay there and would happily recommend.
21st Aug 2024
Hi Nic , thank you for a very positive review. Sorry about the tv. I should have given instructions but o
I forgot. Sorry. Thanks again for the review.
Lovely self-contained accommodation at the top of the house. Never got to meet the hosts but communicated through text, Christopher was very helpful. Easy 1 minute walk to the metro and a Sainsburys, with a 7 minute metro ride to the city centre. Great accommodation and easy travel links made this a great place to stay for the week. Would defiantly stay again if in the area. Thank you.
9th Aug 2024
Very sorry not to meet you too, with us being away. I hope you will be able to come back to us one day.
Spacious and cosy! Felt right at home! Thanks Chris
3rd Aug 2024

Excellent communication and lovely digs!
6th Jun 2024
Thank you. And thank you for staying at our place. I hope you might come back to us if you are working in Newcastle again.
I enjoyed a lovely stay at Chris and Yvonne's wonderful home.
The self contained apartment on the upper floor of their house was perfect for me.
The communication with Chris before and during my stay was spot on.
It's very conveniently located mere yards from the Metro station (and a Sainsbury's Local), taking under 10 minutes to reach the City Centre.
I wouldn't hesitate in booking here again when I return to Newcastle. Highly recommended. Thanks for having me!
5th Jun 2024
Thank you for your very kind review. I hope you will come to us another time.
Perfect self contained digs in a beautiful home. In the heart of lovely Jesmond, I couldn’t have asked for a better stay. I hope to stay again soon .
22nd May 2024

21st Apr 2024
Thank you Molly. Come again. We will be delighted to welcome you for a second time.
The place was lovely in a great part of Newcastle with easy access to the metro or a 40 min walk. A home away from home.
15th Mar 2024
This is the absolute best place to stay in Newcastle! Lovely loft room with its own kitchen, little lounge and toilet. Perfect location 30 seconds down the road from the metro and a Sainsbury’s and only an 8 minute metro ride to central Newcastle by the theatre. Couldn’t recommend this enough
24th Feb 2024
Thank you Adam. Come again next time you are working in Newcastle
Lovely attic room with bathroom and kitchen, was great to have my own space. Excellent location - metro station practically right on the doorstep and about 3 stops to get to the Theatre Royal. Thanks for having me!
16th Feb 2024
I had a really good, comfortable stay at these digs. The communication with the host was excellent. The Wifi was easy to connect to and strong enough to support watching films in the evening. The bed was comfortable and I slept very well every night. The accommodation was clean, well-equipped and spacious and just as described. It was extremely easy to reach the Theatre Royal as the Metro is so close to the accommodation. Thank you so very much for having me as a guest!
13th Nov 2023
Such great digs, so close the metro and very easy to get to and from the theatre. Very much enjoyed my stay and hope to be back again!

The perfect home from home. I almost don’t want to brag about it too much because I don’t want it to book up so often I can no longer get in. Ideal little upper floor with private mini living room, kitchen, bathroom and bedroom. Ideal!!!
