Featured Property
The View

The View, known locally as the Blue Tower, is one of Newcastle's more recognisable student accommodation buildings, partly for its height and partly for its position on Barrack Road in the city centre.
It's 15 minutes on foot from Newcastle University's main campus and from Northumbria University's City Campus, which makes it practical for students at either institution.

The Blue Tower's height is a genuine asset. Upper-floor rooms have views over the city that are unusual for student accommodation at this price point.
Rooms are available as en-suites and studios, with all utility bills, superfast Wi-Fi and contents insurance included. 24/7 on-site support and CCTV throughout.

From £171 per week.
