Felton 3.2 miles. Resting on the grounds of the tranquil Percy Wood Golf & Country Park with unlimited complimentary golf at the 18 hole golf course, on the outskirts of the quaint village of Swarland, is this striking wooden lodge, Oaks One. Offering a peaceful setting and a homely interior, Oaks One is an idyllic base for your next rural retreat.

As the day draws to a close, prepare for bed with an invigorating rinse in the family bathroom before retiring for the evening, choosing between three thoughtfully laid out bedrooms, a king-size, benefiting from access to it's own en-suite bathroom, where you can enjoy an intimate escape with a soak amongst the bubbles, and two twin rooms, each boasting a colourful décor, one with it's own TV so you can watch all your favourite films from the comfort of the covers.

The best equipped we've ever stayed in. We couldn't find fault at all. Comfy beds, welcome pack with dog treats etc. Welcome call from the very nice owner. Location is very peaceful and ideal for dogs. Location is also well placed near to the A1 in order to travel both North and South of Northumberland for all the attractions. The lodge is a credit to the owners.

This lodge is beautiful, with colourful furnishings and the most comfortable beds. It has everything you need. The lodge owner rings to give you advice on places to visit and leaves a gift package for you including essentials like bread, milk and butter. I could live here, and we will definately return.
