Durham ISC vs Astrophysics at Newcastle University

Basically, I'm an international student. I have been offered astrophysics at Newcastle University for direct entry and I couldn't get into durham. But they offered me offer for Durham foundation year(ISC) with the same progression degree. And I'm very sure I want to go in that field, what should I do? I'm leaning more towards Durham because of the better facilities ,faculty and future aspects even after being more expensive.I am seeking more clearity.

Newcastle would be a great choice and not 'better' than Durham for this subject - so it isnt worth the extra year of study.
