UK VPS series has been recently lanuched by Host Mayo LTD. thus adding upon our already available locations of USA and NL. However, this time we have gone with the latest Ryzen 7 series on top of NVME disk for blazing speed. Before we move on to the details of the server and location we would like to offer a recurring discount coupon of 20% on our UK VPS series. You can use coupon “lifetime” during the checkout as shown below:
Now lets first discuss the location of our new UK VPS series.
UK VPS Location
The server is located in the Stellium data center which is one of UK’s premier colocation data centres with global subsea fiber, and extensive terrestrial carrier networks. The exact address is to be Stellium Datacenters, 9 Cobalt Park Way, Cobalt Business Park, Wallsend, Newcastle Upon Tyne, NE28 9EJ.
The data center is ISO-27001 Information Security Management, ISO-14001 Environmental Management, ISO-9001 Quality Management, ISO-20000 IT Service Management, ISO-22301 Business Continuity Management, PSN Network and Cyber Essentials+ certified, along with being rated BREEAM Excellent.
Why UK Newcastle
We have seen increasing power costs and repeated issues with infrastructure in congested London. Therefore UK Newcastle is the new choice for UK VPS buyers. Few of the other plus points of this location are as follow:
- Stellium provides 80 MWs (designed to scale to 180 MWs) of REGO certified renewable power at Stellium Newcastle.
- This location in the North East is one of the lowest carbon intensity regions in the United Kingdom
- Stellium has no cooling issues – unlike London data centres who have experienced major cooling issues
- Stellium’s Tier 3+ data centre in Newcastle operates in less hostile temperatures than London, rarely exceeding 22 deg C v London’s 32 deg C (June 2023).The consequences are lower cooling bills and a cooling system that always works well within its design parameters.
- Stellium has no latency congestion. In fact they provide some of the lowest latency now available in the UK. As the landing station for the latest international subsea fibre cables, Newcastle is now closer to New York than London is.

The server offers a Virtualizor control panel which is famous for its intuitive and easy-to-use interface. The web-based Control Panel allows users to deploy and manage VPS on servers with a single click like OS installation, shut down vps, reboot and even run VNC or backups. We have used KVM virtualization which is known best for its raw speed.
