A question about this place:
I am relocating from New Zealand to Newbury for work with Vodafone. I need to stay somewhere when I arrive (they are paying). What's a good place to stay in the town?

Have you arrived yet?

No, not yet. I’m still waiting on entry clearance from the British Embassy here in NZ.

Have you tried looking on the vodafone intranet? Or asking NZ and/or UK HR to give you some help/suggestions?

Alternatively, look on www.newburytoday.co.uk, which is the webpage for the main local newspaper, the Newbury Weekly News. It has some links to estate agents and may have accommodation listings (although I couldn’t find them). Maybe e-mail the NWN?

Hope this helps

I’ve left VFNZ now, so I can’t get access to it anymore :-(

However, I’ve just found out (minutes ago) that I should be staying at the Hilton when I first arrive, then going to a serviced flat that they are sorting out. So, that sounds alright.

Thanks for the link for the newspaper too. I’m sure that’ll come in handy.
