Purdy Lodge Hotel in Northumberland

Lovely staff even bought drink up to the room after doing the mighty hike pity its on the A1 but didn't hear the traffic meals excellent

Stayed for three days rooms very well presented clean breakfast excellent evening meals good service good good location for touring area

Basic accommodation in disappointing, though convenient, location right on the side of the A1. The picture did not tell the whole story. Clean but dated, in need of a refurb. Beds were comfortable and view to rear was lovely. Shower turned on but could not be adjusted or turned off which resulted in an unwanted bathroom sauna experience until a member of staff came to our rescue. Breakfast was very good, both quality and quantity, but the overall experience I felt was expensive for what it was.

We were on the way to see my aunt. She has just moved house. We stopped here for coffee. I have no complaints about the coffee. All the water was left out of the fridge so it was warm. The service was a bit slow. But it was fine.

Very good accommodation on A1. Rooms clean and adequate in size. Staying here for two nights. Choice of breakfast fare, took the full English which was substantial for me. Also choice of continental, cereal, porridge, etc. Book a table for dinner and be treated to great fish and chunky chips, or something else from their tasty menu. We have our dog with us and it's been no hassle. Staff are friendly and helpful. Will stay here again.

Loos clean and tidy and better presented than last time I visited, one of ghese days I'll have time to stop for more than a bathroom break. Don't read that to mean that service is slow, it's just my schedule. Nice to see repairs to local access roads and resurfaced car park.

Was not a planned stop and the staff had just been invaded by an unexpected coach load. They were apologetic, as I had to clean my table, but that was fine. Took a leaflet as may book a stay next time we travel north.

Friendly staff, great views and good food. Strange smell in our room. Told staff but we didn't want to move room. Would go there again.

Had pre booked as part of a party of 9.Arrived at about 10pm with a very friendly and welcoming member of staff who gave us all the information we needed. The twin room was very clean, tidy and suited all our needs. The breakfast was very easy to order and the waitress was very professional as we're all the members of the team. Should I be back in the area I would have no problem in staying here again.

Whilst staying at the nearby sister company Warenford Cottages, we decided to have an evening meal here in the restaurant. On booking we were asked to provide our menu choice by lunch on the day, which meant on arrival after a drink in the bar we were asked to move to our table and exactly on time all our eleven meals were brought out to us all piping hot and cooked to perfection. Also the deserts were very tasty, especially my choice of sticky toffee pudding with lashings of custard. The service was first class and I would definitely recommend a visit if your in the area.
