Noisy neighbours

Hi all,
I would like to ask for a help if someone had similar situation.
We moved in a terraced house 1 month ago. Neighbours next door started being noisy during night the second day we were staying in the property. The usual scenario is they start noisy talking at about 11 pm and it ends with yelling, fighting or throwing things at about 3 am. Last night we called the police and they arrived in 10 mins, after a talk with them neighbours calmed down a bit, but continued loud talking until 4 pm. Our son is 5 years old, he usually wakes up because of the noise, I manage to calm him down, but he is affraid in the house, doesn't want to go upstairs on his own...
The thing is before we rented this property, asked the letting agency about neighbours and they assured as they are ok and that the neighborhood is very quit. Now this is not true as we know from other neighbours this is a usual thing happening next door. I contacted them and told about the problem but theyr answer was that we should try speak with neighbours. Our contract with agency about renting is for 6 months. Can we move out before that? Has someone been in a similar situation? We are very tired and hopeless about this.
Thanks in advance, A

Perhaps it’s just alcohol fueled arguments, and they’ll settle down now that the festive season is over. Fingers crossed.

You're in a good position because you're renting. If you had bought, then things would be very different.

Regarding the 6 month contract, you could see if they would agree an early exit, but you would need to pay a fee and they'd probably say you couldn't move until they had new agreed tenancy.

Regardless though, at least there is an end to this. You have my sympathy though. I understand, unfortunately.
