Nicola
October 2024

“The fact that this year was the fourth year visiting this lodge, should hopefully speak for itself.”

The lodge is cosy, comfortable and very well equipped, including towels etc for our dogs and plenty of books, games and dvds for rainy days if required. The local area is so beautiful and the lodge is so close to many lovely beaches which are just over 5 miles away. Also greeted with a great welcome basket which we were very grateful for.

Very nice to watch the deer on the golf course in the late evening.

- Chris, August 2024

thank you for your feedback I really do appreciate it. I'm so pleased you enjoyed your stay, and lucky you saw the deer they are stunning. kindest regards Kim Property Owner

Robert July 2024

“This was a return stay at 5 Valley View, first visited in 2019.”

The property is perfectly located within Percy Woods with a super view over the golf course to the coast beyond. The owner, Kim is very welcoming and prepares her property to a very high standard. Everything needed for your stay is thoughtfully provided. A super ‘welcome’ package greets you on arrival; a very caring addition and much appreciated. The lodge is very comfortable, in good repair and easy to manage. It is good to come home to after a day’s activity. Those activities range from historic castles, museums, coastal walks and boat excursions to offshore islands. This is such a wonderful location right in the middle of interests to suit everyone. In summary, highly recommended for location, value for money, comfort and good overall experience.

- Robert, July 2024

Thank you for your feedback it is very much appreciated. It was lovely to have you both back again doesn't five years fly by ! Look forward to seeing you both again sometime in the future kindest regards Kim Property Owner
Leonora June 2024

“We really enjoyed our holiday in the lodge.”

It charmed us from the start with its quality furnishings and layout especially the spacious main room with lots of light ad an open view over the countryside. The park in which the lodge is situated is very peaceful. The owner had given us plenty of help and advice prior to our stay so we were geared up to enjoy ourselves. It is an excellent area for cycle rides and walks (we did both) and, of course, has a huge amount of history surrounding the area. We unreservedly recommend this accommodation without hesitation. We really must recommend Nelsons cafe. The staff was very caring and the food - well what can I say - absolutely mouthwateringly good, a must to visit.

- Leonora, June 2024

thank you so much for your feedback it is very much appreciated. looking forward to welcoming you both back kindest regards Kim Property Owner
Helen June 2024

“Another stay at this 5 star lodge.”

- Helen, June 2024

thank you so much for your feedback, I'm so happy you had a lovely stay and look forward to seeing you both again soon Property Owner

Leon March 2024

“My husband, Leon booked this for us to have some time away.”

We have had to rearrange due to me having a full hysterectomy, then my father was dying of lung cancer whilst living alone in Cyprus which maenat we had to rearrange yet again. We were due to stay this month but sadly my husband collapsed with a brain haemorrhage in February 2023. He has subsequently been diagnosed with a grade 4 glioblastoma brain tumour. He contacted the owner and yourselves to explain. However, this has been totally ignored to the extent that the owner of this property was rude and in her email intimating that this was a tall story. I can assure you it is not. My husband is now receiving palliative care and has a only a few weeks to live. So I am astonished and disgusted that you and the owner have decided that this is not enough to cancel our booking and refund the money. It is a disgrace. If you would like me to provide details of my hospital stay, my Fathers death certificate and my husbands scans and diagnosis of terminal brain cancer then I will.

- Leon, March 2024
Sheryl March 2024

Thank you Kim. The lodge is situated within a very scenic countryside and also close to very lovely towns. Northumberland is well worth a visit.

Helen September 2023

“A spacious and comfortable lodge.”

It's in a lovely setting with the golf course to look out on. Lovely and clean and the owner Kim has thought of everything that her guests would need during their stay. The welcome basket of food was much appreciated and the help and information from the owner. We were so impressed with it that we have booked to come back next year.

Thank you so much for your lovely feedback; you even booked when you were still here ! Can't wait to see you again kindest regards Kim Property Owner
Geoff August 2023

“What a wonderful place: quiet, lovely views and plenty of parking room.”

The Lodge is really nice: clean, tidy, extremely well provisioned with everything you could wish for, and the “Get You Started” welcome tray was very generous. Thank you to the owner for her kindness, prompt communications and friendliness….. and she provided amazing weather! I can say no more other than we were totally delighted with our stay here. (I am somewhat reluctant that this review should be published as it will mean others will rush to stay here and so there will be no available vacancies for our intended return!)

- Geoff, August 2023

Thank you so much for your lovely review. It is so lovely to have guests that love it as much as I do. Looking forward to seeing you again Property Owner
Kathryn August 2023

“The lodge was very well equipped and clean with great views across the valley.”

The owner provided a welcome food pack with basics such as bread and milk upon our arrival which was really appreciated. The location was ideal with places like Alnwick and Amble about 15 minutes drive away each and we found some excellent dog friendly pubs in close proximity to the lodge where we could have a decent meal out. Overall very pleased with the holiday and would not hesitate to book the same place again.

- Kathryn, August 2023

Thank you so much for your lovely feedback very much appreciated. It would be lovely to welcome you back again Property Owner
Lillian August 2023

“Beautiful lodge, homely and welcoming.”

Spotlessly clean, very well equipped, comfortable beds and lovely bedlinen and fluffy towels. Quiet and peaceful site, which suited us perfectly. A short drive away from shops, restaurants and tourist attractions. Kim, the owner, is lovely. Great communication from her. Lots of info prior to arrival and in the lodge too, which was great. Only complaint is that we had to come home! Would definitely recommend a visit.

- Lillian, August 2023

Thank you so much for your lovely feedback and can't wait to welcome you back again if you choose to visit wonderful Northumberland again Property Owner
Norman July 2023

“The lodge was absolutely beautiful , clean & very well equipped.”

The whole site was disappointing because of the speeding cars , people walking between lodges with no respect of privacy & the lack of dog bins or litter bins around the site . Kim the owner of 5he lodge could not have been more helpful just a shame the site owners could not follow her example

- Norman, July 2023

Thank you for your feedback. The site have started to address the speed issue and have made a start introducing speed ramps and 5 mile an hour. I agree that some people chose to walk in between lodges which is an ongoing battle thankfully 5 valley view tends to have less than others. I ll raise the issues re the bins with the office again Property Owner
Andrew July 2023

“Kim should be very proud of her lodge as it is absolutely fantastic.”

It is a real cosy home from home with lots of kitchen gadgets, games, DVD's, books. Also it is not overlooked and has a wonderful uninterrupted view. The welcome pack was a very nice surprise

- Andrew, July 2023

Thank you so much for your lovely feedback. I am so pleased you enjoyed your stay despite the weather ! If you come back to Northumberland I hope I have the pleasure of welcoming you all back Property Owner
Lynne June 2023

“This was our second visit to the lodge & we thoroughly enjoyed our return visit, the lodge has everything you need, home from home & very comfortable.”

The views across the golf course & surrounding areas are beautiful, we visited some beautiful beaches, holy island and many more places. Kim is an exceptional host always on hand to help out with any queries you may have & provided us with information on surrounding areas to visit, which were breathtaking, Kim also provided a wonderful welcome pack which was much appreciated.

- Lynne, June 2023

Thank you so much for your feedback it was lovely to have you back. Hopefully Northumberland will see you returning and fingers crossed my lodge too. Kindest regards Kim Property Owner
Michael June 2023

“Great central location for days out in Northumberland.”

Lodge very clean and tidy, has everything you will need for your holiday, (whatever the weather) although the sun shone for us. The the welcome pack provided by the owner was great. The site is to a very high standard and the view from the balcony over the golf course is great, with good local dog walks. Will almost certainly visit again.

- Michael, June 2023

Hello thank you for you lovely feedback. Its so nice when guests comment. I'm always wanting to improve my lodge could you let me know what facilities are needed at the lodge to allow me to improve it further if its something I can provide for future guests ? Kindest regards Kim Property Owner
Jane May 2023

“The accommodation was excellent and in just the right location for the places we wished to visit, being close to the A1 proved excellent for quick access to the north and south.”

The lodge was clean, well maintained and very comfortable. The kitchen was well stocked and the owner had left a welcome pack for us which was much appreciated. The lodge had lots of space and was very well equiped with games, dvd's and books. Both bedrooms had large walk in wardrobes with plenty of room for clothes, the shower we used was excellent with good water pressure. We found plenty of literature about Northumberland in the lodge which helped us to decide where to investigate each day. The kitchen was well stocked with utensils, everything we needed during our stay was in there. There was ample parking, probably enough for four vehicles at the side of the lodge. The view from the lodge was excellent and the site as a whole was very quiet and well laid out with plenty of room between the lodges.

- Jane, May 2023

Thank you so much for your feedback x I can't wait to welcome you back . Kindest regards Kim Property Owner
Sandra May 2023

“We loved Percy Wood Country Park and our lodge, No.”

5 Valley View, was perfectly situated with no other lodges in front, just a perfect view of the golf course, trees and hills in the background. We had a real mixture of weather - rain, mist and some sunshine. Warmer temperatures and summer sunshine would have made it perfect! Our host, Kim, was more than helpful and left us a wonderful welcome pack. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this lodge and the country park.

- Sandra, May 2023

Thank you so much for your feedback. It is very much appreciated. I m so pleased you liked the lodge and it would be lovely to welcome you back Kim Property Owner
John March 2023

Neale January 2023

“We were very pleased with the lodge which was well presented with every item you could wish for in equipment, furnishings and facilities.”

The kind owner Kim lived on the site at Percywood and was always at hand for any questions, advice etc. We would have no worries about returning to this lovely retreat

Thank you so much with your feedback. It is lovely to hear you enjoyed your stay. I look forward to welcoming you back Kim Property Owner

Nicola October 2022

“This is our second year staying at this property.”

We have already booked for a third visit for next year. The property feels like home from home, cosy, comfortable and our two dogs are also well catered for. Lovely welcome tray for arrival with a few essentials also. The property is also ideally situated to get to so many lovely places. Another fantastic holiday in Northumberland.

- Nicola, October 2022

Thank you for your lovely feedback. I look forward to seeing you again next year Kindest regards Kim Property Owner
Stephanie October 2022

“Excellent, so comfortable.”

A real home from home. Location perfect for visiting many places of interest. Would really recommend to anyone of all ages. The only thing I would say is that it's a bit confusing to find and if the local school was used as a reference point in the directions it would help. We will definitely return

- Stephanie, October 2022

Thank you I ll add the school to the directions. Thank you for your lovely feedback. Is there anything for the facilities and maintenance I could improve on I would welcome your feedback Kindest regards Kim Property Owner

The lodge was just perfect a real home from home feeling in a beautiful setting short drives to the coastal areas and amazing walks with breathtaking scenery Can’t wait for our next visit

- Julie, September 2022

Janet September 2022

“The holiday overall was perfect as was the actual property.”

It was very comfortable, clean and contained everything we could possibly need for our stay. It was obvious that the owner has put a lot of thought into furnishing this property and in making it a real home from home for the guests. Including the welcome pack and complimentary toiletries in the bathroom was very welcome. There is also a very good provision for children with games and videos and even all essential items you might need for your pets. The only disappointment was that my husband thought he would be able to hire a set of golf clubs and maybe a buggy but when he enquired at the club he was told they didn't hire them out any more. Overall an excellent property and we would highly recommend.

- Janet, September 2022

Thank you for your feedback. I m sorry the office no longer hires out golf buggies; this was beyond my control so have now removed it from the available service however I can provide access to a golf buggy if you return I can arrange this for you I have to have advance notice to arrange kindest regards Kim Property Owner
Catriona September 2022

“We have had a lovely time, the lodge was spotless, well appointed, warm and cosy.”

Kim had left a welcome basket, much appreciated! The park is quite big, but this lodge is in a perfect position just on the edge of the way with the path at the side of the golf course. We saw roe deer, lots of ducks and birds. Really peaceful and relaxing. We recommend Nelson's in the park for a fabulous breakfast, lovely people there too, and the Running Fox do coffee and the most delicious cake. We were disappointed with Yam's Chinese restaurant in Alnwick but that might have been a one off. We went to Kielder Forest which was quite a long way but Alnwick, Amble and Seahouses are quite close. Kim is a lovely host and very helpful. We hope to return.

- Catriona, September 2022

Thank you for your feedback I m very pleased you had a lovely time. It would be lovely to see you return. Kindest regards Kim Property Owner

Maria November 2021

“Lovely large, clean, spacious lodge, fully equipped, like a home from home, the view from the balcony was amazing.”

Good location to use as a base to explore Northumberland and surrounding areas. The owner was really thoughtful and left a welcome basket for our arrival, kept in touch to make sure we were ok and if we needed anything. We would definitely recommend this lodge and will definitely book it again. Many thanks for a really enjoyable holiday.

- Maria, November 2021
John November 2021

“The lodge catered for everything we needed and more.”

Kim the owner gave us a warm welcome and was available to respond to any queries promptly. We would recommend this property to anyone wanting a quiet break with pleasant surroundings, and it is very pet friendly should you want to take your canine family members.

Lodge was amazing,however the lodge next door had a hot tub, which the occupant,took full advantage off, including extremely loud music,would ask people using hot tub to be more considerate of folk that would like peace and quite on the holiday,except for that holiday was good

- Veronica, October 2021
Craig October 2021

Kim was an excellent host, she had made sure we had everything we needed.

- Craig, October 2021
Nicola October 2021

“We have had a fabulous stay and a wonderful holiday.”

The lodge was exceptionally comfortable and very well equipped for all our needs including our dogs. It was immaculately clean and is very well situated in a quiet, tranquil spot, but within easy reach of the A1 to get to visit places in the area. Would highly recommend.

- Nicola, October 2021
Carol October 2021

- Carly, August 2021
Andrew July 2021

“Lodge was lovely and clean.”

Lots of thought had gone into what Guests may need in the kitchen and though out. E.g. shopping bags available to use, all kitchen utensils etc. Really positive and quick responses to queries from the owner. We had underestimated the journey time to the coast which was the only negative, but other than that it was a very enjoyable stay.

- Andrew, July 2021
Neal July 2021

“Beautiful lodge very centrally located easy access to A1 only couple miles .”

We went everywhere from Lindsfarne to Amble ,weather was amazing really enjoyed it

Scott April 2021

“What an amazing spot in Percy Wood Retreat.”

We have stayed at other places at this location, but for us this was absolutely the best. Lovely relaxing week in a south facing great lodge. Beutiful views near and far with all the creature comforts. The Owner Kim could not have been more attentive or helpful which we really appreciated. Thanks Kim for everything you did! Cheers for now Scott Jo Dexter and Ellie

- Scott, April 2021
Dawn October 2020

“Great place to stay very comfortable lodge.”

Everything you needed was provided, including a welcome pack with all essentials on arrival. We didn't have WiFi as the owner was having some problems, this didn't affect our stay but I can understand it might affect some people. The lodges are quite close together too so privacy could also be an issue. Golf is free for the duration of your stay, we managed one round as weather meant the course was a bit muddy. All in all a great retreat for a well needed break away and lots to do in Northumberland.

- Dawn, October 2020
John September 2020

“When I booked WiFi was.”

available but while I was there I had to go to reception every day to use their WiFi.

- John, September 2020
Alan September 2020

“As stated at time of booking and now, this property has wi-if, it does not.”

Having contacted the owner she suggested it would be cheaper for us to use our own data. This obviously cost us and was an inconvenience, due to the fact of COVID-19 you have to book attractions, restaurants etc before going. The owner told us that she had told Sykes to take this off the website. Also a great selling point of this property was the use of the golf cart for a round of golf on the adjacent course, it did not have one. I have sent a formal letter explaining the above.

- Alan, September 2020
Annette August 2020

“We had a lovely stay at Percy wood the lodge was very comfortable and spacious, the park was very peaceful and quite .”

Would defiantly be going back sometime .

- Annette, August 2020
Laura August 2020

“This lodge is even better then the description!”

It is so well equipped and had lovely extras like dog bowls, kitchen products, tea and coffee and a lovely welcome basket. There were lots of books and DVDs and all the furnishings were very comfortable! The lodge is in a great position with beautiful views. We wouldn’t hesitate in booking again.

- Laura, August 2020
Liz August 2020

“Fantastic setting, lodge and equipment, very comfortable.”

Lovely touch with a welcome basket, Liquid soaps and kitchen kit. The linen was excellent quality and the towels soft and generous in size. Good communication and info from owner. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and could have happily stayed on longer. Would stay again and also use Sykes again.

- Liz, August 2020
Lynda July 2020

“There is lots to do and see in the area.”

The lodge is in a fabulous position overlooking the golf green and a woodland with views to the hills one way and the sea the other way. Kim the owner, was very friendly and helpful and told us about the best places to eat and shop. The welcome pack of milk, eggs, bread and other things came in very handy. Everything we needed was supplied in the lodge, it was also very clean and comfortable. We will certainly be staying again in the future.

- Lynda, July 2020
Brian October 2019

“Everything about the accommodation far exceeded our expectations.”

The owner provided plenty of books cd's and lots of games to keep any children entertained. The lodge overlooks the golf course on a quite part of the site. The site is perfectly situated for exploring the wonderful Northumberland coast. If you are looking for a home from home base you won't be disappointed in choosing this accommodation.

- Brian, October 2019
Susan October 2019

“The lodge is very cosy and comfortable, everything has been thought out carefully with regard to how it is equipped.”

There was a surprise of useful grocery essentials awaiting us, again a thoughtful addition. The lodge has super unhindered views over the golf course and is well placed for getting to Alnwick, Alnmouth and beach walks. Don’t miss Embleton, Bamburgh and Seahouses. We are familiar with this part of Northumberland which is breathtakingly beautiful at all times of the year, so cannot recommend the area and this accommodation highly enough.

- Susan, October 2019
Carol September 2019

“We were all very pleased with our accommodation, very comfortable, everything thought of as to what may be required”

- Carol, September 2019
Robert June 2019

“Our holiday home was beautifully appointed, very well sited and extremely comfortable.”

Swarland is perfectly placed for exploring Bamburgh in the north to Morpeth in the south. Seahouses was only thirty minutes away and this was a perfect departure point for the Farne Islands and their fabulous seabird communities. Northumberland has so much to offer visitors. Alnwick castle and gardens are a must. There are so many excellent places to eat, country pubs to enjoy and towns to explore. The coastal towns offer fresh seafood for the connoisseur and magnificent beaches to enjoy. A really fabulous holiday experience in the UK.

- Robert, June 2019
William June 2019

“Just like home from home.”

Very spacious accommodation with everything you need during your stay.A very good place to both relax and/or travel the area.I would recommend this holiday.

- William, June 2019
Stephen May 2019

“My wife and I were after a relaxing week away and this proved to be the perfect setting.”

Althoigh on a holiday park, with some of the blinds down you could easily have believed you were in cabin on its own in the countryside. The view out on the golf course and the fields and trees beyond was fantastically picturesque and had the weather been nicer would have been perfect for an early evening drink on the veranda. The property was very clean and we'll supplied with facilities to help you cater for yourself and make the property truly feel like a home from home. The only recommendation I would make for more tech savy couples is to look at your data allowance options. There is an option to top up some Wi-Fi in the property but at £10 for 1 gig it doesn't stretch far. My phone company allowed me to double my monthly allowance to 20 gig for an extra £5 which proved a useful for Netflix when freeview didn't have any exciting options late at night. Situation wise you are within 15 minutes of two reasonable sized towns (Alnwick and Morpeth) for supplies or visits to local attractions and no more than 30 minutes from at least 10 coastal towns and villages which offer something for everyone (lovely walks, great food, clean beaches, historical sites etc).

- Stephen, May 2019
Peter January 2019

“One of the best locations and the lodge was everything you could want for to make your holiday special”

About the location

SWARLAND

Alnwick 6 miles, Morpeth 12 miles.

The delightful village of Swarland is set in rural Northumberland, between Morpeth to the south and Alnwick to the north. The village has Nelsons, situated in the sports hall, which is open seven days a week, serving excellent coffee and meals, a children’s play area and tennis courts. It is just 8 miles from Alnwick, with its castle and 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. There is plenty to see and do near to Swarland, with miles of golden sandy beaches, numerous castles and boat trips to the famous Farne Islands all available nearby. Brinkburn Priory is a pleasant drive away, a restored Augustinian Priory in a most lovely setting beside the River Coquet. Just 10 minutes’ drive to the west is the National Trust’s Cragside House and Gardens. Altogether a perfect location for exploring Northumberland and its stunning Heritage Coastline.
