2. Student testimonials

   • 

     It’s really nice to have a Studio; it gives me my own space so I don’t have to share. There is a real family feel to the residence; I am already planning to come back for my 3rd year!

     I am a Masters student so having my own space for studying is really important to me. Having a Studio is perfect and suits all of my needs.

     The staff here have been extremely welcoming and go above and beyond to make sure I am ok. Newcastle University is within walking distance and it has a really good reputation.

4. Your Student Experience

   Enhancing your Student Experience

   Our dedicated Student Experience programme has been created to ensure that every single one of you has the best stay possible when you live with us. Whether it is coming along to our social events and activities to meet new people, getting involved in fundraising and volunteering for some amazing charities, or popping along to drop in sessions to seek advice on finances, wellbeing and careers, we have something for you.

   We understand that University can sometimes be an overwhelming experience, but don’t worry our team are great at giving advice on and mediating in all kinds of welfare issues that you may experience, such as homesickness, difficulty in getting on with flatmates, noise complaints, relationship problems, partying too hard and having trouble with studies.

   Also, if you need more guidance, we have great relationships with our University partners and their support departments to help and guide you.

5. International students

   The best choice for international students

   Coming to the UK to study from abroad? Welcome! We love catering to students from all over the world and learning a thing or two about their culture. Luckily, we’ve already got plenty of experience with this as we currently have around 4,500 international students staying with us, so you’re certainly not alone.

   When you stay with Liberty Living your safety is the most important thing to us. We understand that you’re a long way from home and you want to feel comfortable and secure at all times. We have amazing staff on hand 24 hours a day, from the Residence Team, right through to Security who’ll keep an eye out for you overnight as well as CCTV. Contents insurance covering your possessions is included as standard in your rent, so your stuff is protected, and any parcels you have delivered will be well looked after until you can come to collect them.

   Of course, we want you to have fun and make the most of your time here, too. You can always come to us with any problems, or even just for a chat. A new country can be confusing, so we’ve got loads of tips for things to do, too – just ask! Many of our staff members are multilingual, so don’t be shy if English isn’t your first language; if we can’t immediately offer support in your native tongue, we’ll point you in the direction of someone who can. We’ll do our best to help you settle in and make friends, and we can point you in the right direction for any visa, welfare or University advice you may need.

   We can’t wait to meet you!

7. Accreditations

   Accreditations

   Liberty Living operates in accordance with the National Code of Standards for student accommodation. The Code of Standards is run by ANUK (The Accreditation Network UK), the NUS, and Unipol Student Homes, and is supported by universities across the UK.

   Liberty Living joined the Code of Standards to give our students peace of mind. You can be assured that you will enjoy a high standard of living in accordance with the Code of Standards, and a prompt resolution to problems should they ever occur when you stay at any of Liberty Living’s residences.

   All of Liberty Living’s residences have been accredited by ANUK and run in accordance with the National Code of Standards.

   

   Liberty Living follow a distinct set of standards for our student accommodation, called the ANUK/Unipol National Codes. The purpose of these Codes, (membership of which is voluntary), is to provide students with professional housing services.

   The standards chosen for the Codes reflect a balance of common sense obligations and responsibilities between landlords and tenants. They also reflect established best practice in the sector and are based on what an average student and their parents would expect of a good quality housing supplier. The standards are supported by the voice of students themselves through the National Union of Students.

   What does being a member of the codes mean?

   • Both parties can enjoy the benefits of good standards of housing management and practice.
   • Misunderstandings and disputes are reduced.
   • If problems do occur they can be promptly resolved.
   • The independent complaints procedure operated by the Codes can be used for complaint resolution.

8. Summer accommodation

   Looking for somewhere to stay over the summer months?
