The lodge is consistently described as clean and tidy upon arrival, with only minor suggestions for improvement, indicating a high standard of cleanliness.
The location next to the lake is highly praised for its beauty and tranquillity, making it a standout feature of the property.
Comfort is generally well-regarded, with mentions of a homely feel and a warm welcome. However, some reviews suggest that certain beds and furniture could benefit from maintenance or replacement.
Facilities like the hot tub are a highlight, though there are comments about maintenance issues such as a broken lever and non-working jets. The on-site pub received mixed feedback.

The delightful village of Felton is set in rural Northumberland, between Morpeth to the south and Alnwick to the north. The village has a shop with a post office, coffee shop, pub and restaurant, and is just 10 miles from Alnwick, with its Castle and now famous Garden, which features Europe's largest cascading water feature, an enormous tree house, a rose garden and an ornamental walled garden. The castle is also famous as the setting for Hogwarts School featured in the "Harry Potter" films! Alnwick offers a good selection of shops, pubs and places to eat and there is plenty to see and do, with miles of golden sandy beaches, numerous castles and boat trips to the famous Farne Islands all available nearby. Altogether a superb location for exploring Northumberland and its stunning Heritage Coastline.

Linda
Seriously relaxing...the hot tub was fantastic although not all the jets are working so we had to "rotate" for the best spot, but lovely and hot! Very clean and tidy on arrival. The resident ducks were so cute and we even had a visit from a whole swan family. Only very minor grumbles from us. One single bed needs some maintenance, it feels very rickety, and maybe a new mattress on the double as the springs are very prominent. New shelf needed in the fridge as everything falls into the veg drawer, a small leak from the heated towel rail and the decking is quite slippery and could do with a sweep. The only refuse bins we could find were on the other side of the site which meant rubbish bags in the car but not sure if we maybe missed closer ones? These are really tiny issues...would we return? Absolutely!! What a beautiful property you have. Thank you.

Had a lovely relaxing time, fab position, pub on site with food (not massive menu) but ok and staff very helpful. Lodge could do with some minor tlc - filter on hot tube needs good clean, lever on hot tub broken. However had a wonderful break, loved the ducks, swans and there cygnets coming up.

Nice location next to the lake, very clean, nice warm welcoming from the lodge owner. The only thing letting it down a bit was the on site pub. Service wasnât the greatest and the atmosphere wasnât the best. Overall lovely weekend away.
