Best accommodation for socialising at Northumbria?

I almost 100% am putting Northumbria down as my firm choice for uni this coming September however I am not sure about what accommodation is the best. I am looking for somewhere really social where I can meet a range of people.
I don't really want an en suite as personally I think they are a bit of a waste of money and I am not really bothered about catered or self-catered.
I have heard Glenamara House is quite social and Lovaine Halls, if anyone knows anything more about the accom at the uni please let me know!
Thanks :smile:

Everything I've been told about social accommodation, is routing more towards Glenamara. I've applied for this as my first choice as I'd prefer to get to know people. It looks really nice too.
Apparently it's the "party central" haha

I have been thinking that Glenamara is probably the place to be too? Have you seen it in real life or online? I am going up for an applicant day on the 7th feb so I can properly look at what would be the best place
I'm going to an applicant day on the 21st but have been told by others that it's great to stay there 😊

glenemarra is really sociable, but it all depends who you live with. I lived in lovaine flats which is sometimes called the quiet halls, it was not at all and was really sociable, just depends who you live with. But as arule of thumb glen is pretty lively and has a more sociable layout
