    Overview:

    The Shield student accommodation is a fun and modern student accommodation centre for students looking for a home away from home while at university in Newcastle.

    Location:

    You can find The Shield student accommodation at Clarence Street in Shieldfield, just off the corner from the town centre. Its strategic location makes it just a few minutes' journey from the University of Newcastle and Northumbria University. The River Tyne, Shieldfield Park, district markets, and tourist attractions for fun-filled outings are just a short distance away.

    Features:

    The centre offers a great balance between private and communal spaces like a cinema room, gym area, courtyard, study room, and lounge area. They host social events as well which gives students a great opportunity to mingle with their counterparts. Other amenities include a laundry room, a vending machine, a bike storage area, a television, and high-speed WiFi.

    Room Type:

    The en-suite rooms in this property come with a bed, shower space and a shared kitchen area whereas the studio rooms come with a private kitchen and bathroom space, study, and storage area. A great perk is that they charge per room so in case, you decide to have a friend share your room, you will be paying for just the room and not per head!
