Plummer House is in the heart of Newcastle, close to both of the citys universities. Shops, restaurants, cultural attractions, entertainment venues and more are all available in the local area.
Plummer House is located right in the heart of the city centre providing easy access to Newcastle University and to the University of Northumbria. The quayside area is also nearby, along with two tram stops and an over ground rail station.
Newcastle is famous for its lively nightlife, which was previously described as Britain's number one tourist attraction by the Rough Guide to Britain. But there's much more to this dynamic city than its pubs, clubs and bars.
Newcastle is a city committed to academic life. It is home to the largest independent library outside of London, which provides an excellent resource for the city's students. It also features museums, art galleries and theatres, offering a rich cultural life.
The city is absolutely brimming with shops, restaurants and leisure facilities, making for a lively experience. This is contrasted by several areas of extensive parkland, ideal for escaping city life and enjoying a picnic in the sunshine, going for a run or simply curling up to enjoy a good book.

Cancellation Policy
You will have 15 days from making your booking to sign the tenancy agreement. The Reservation Rent is fully refundable if you cancel your booking within this period.
Once the tenancy agreement has been signed, the Reservation Rent will be held until the first rental payment falls due under your tenancy agreement, and will be offset against the amount due.
To cancel your booking you must tell the property in writing by sending an email.
You will be required to pay a Deposit (Deposit) at the commencement of the Residential Period. This payment will be collected with your first rental payment.
Your Deposit will be held under a Tenancy Deposit Protection Scheme and will be used as security against any damage to the Room, the Flat or the Property (fair wear and tear excepted), any damage to the furnishings or other equipment provided (fair wear and tear excepted) and any unpaid Rent or other charges incurred during the duration of your Tenancy Agreement. The balance of the Deposit will be paid to you within 28 days after the termination of the Tenancy Agreement, less any reasonable costs incurred for the breach of any obligation under the Tenancy Agreement.
It is important that you understand that when you sign your tenancy agreement, you are entering into a legal agreement with the Landlord, and are liable for the full rent due for the Residential Period.
