ferretingnewbie 66 Posted December 12, 2015 Report Share Posted December 12, 2015 Does anyone know any cheap work digs around newcastle? I live in Cambridge but have roughly 3 months work starting January around ashlington, blyth, Sunderland and Newcastle. Been on usual hotel sites but they want about £70 a night. Looking for 2 cheap single rooms nothing fancy. Cheers Quote Link to post Share on other sites
gnipper 6,426 Posted December 12, 2015 Report Share Posted December 12, 2015 Be cheaper renting a house for 3 month up there wouldn't it? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ferretingnewbie 66 Posted December 12, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 12, 2015 I don't no to be honest. I've never been up there before. We've got a hotel in whitley bay until Christmas eve she only wants £155 a week for 2 single rooms so £75 each a week is ideal but she recons she's fully booked in January. Don't really want to stay in a youth hostel. I tried all the caravan parks but think there either shut or fully booked only let's you book in March Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Rake aboot 4,935 Posted December 13, 2015 Report Share Posted December 13, 2015 I found a site today called AirBnB. Short term rooms for rent and the prices go pretty cheap as well. Hotel in Aberdeen is usually around £100 to £130 a night, BnB usually around 70 buck, this place had rooms for 30 quid and it gets cheaper if you rent for longer. Worth a look. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
