Friarsgate Apartments

Friarsgate Apartments is a ground-floor one-bedroom place for two in one of Newcastle's most active neighbourhoods. The open-plan living space brings together lounge, dining area and kitchen; there's a double bedroom and shower room. A balcony overlooks the street. The kitchen has an electric oven and hob, microwave, fridge, washing machine and dishwasher, so you can cook properly or keep things simple. Wifi, heating, bed linen and towels are all included, and there's parking for one car on site.

Grainger Town itself is where you'll find Grey Street, repeatedly voted one of Britain's finest, plus the Theatre Royal and Grainger Market with its food stalls, independent shops and fresh produce. The Chinatown district—minutes away on foot—is packed with Asian restaurants, bubble-tea shops and bakeries. The Quayside with its bridges and riverside walks is equally close. The apartment suits couples or those travelling as two who want to be in the thick of the city rather than on its edges. No smoking inside.
