Collegiate Plummer House

Enjoy having the city just outside your door when you move into the student accommodation at Plummer House. Visit pubs, eateries, and art galleries just steps from your new home or walk over to the subway station in three minutes to travel beyond the city centre. Down the street you can see a new Hollywood blockbuster or foreign film in the Art Deco theaters of Tyneside Cinema. Pack a picnic and head to Leazes Park 10 minutes away for a relaxing afternoon by the lake, then check out the newest releases at Waterstones bookshop on the way back.

From your stylish studio or mezzanine apartment at the Plummer House in Newcastle, the city’s most famous universities are just moments away. You can walk to Newcastle University in 10 minutes or stroll over to the University of Northumbria in just five minutes. Sleep in a little longer knowing your campus is so close to home.

Squeeze in a quick workout before class at the fully equipped fitness centre, then get cleaned up in your sleek bathroom. Make a cup of tea and warm up a bowl of oatmeal in the built-in microwave. Grab a seat at the breakfast bar and scroll through your messages to see what’s scheduled for the day.

When your lectures are over, come back home through the secure electronic door with CCTV; the 24-hour concierge will be there to greet you. After a productive session at your bedroom desk with an ergonomic chair or in the study room, walk over to the community lounge to see what’s going on. You can chat with your neighbours, line up a game of air hockey, or check out a film in the cinema room.

With your busy schedule, you might not have time to run out and shop for groceries. With the on-site cool room, you can order food online and then pick up your fresh ingredients for dinner on your own time. While you prepare a meal, watch the news on the flat-screen TV in the living area or stream your favourite album with 200 mbps broadband and Wi-Fi - you can connect from anywhere in the building.
