Guests say

Bolams Lodge is praised for its spacious, cosy, and well-equipped interiors, offering a peaceful and wildlife-rich setting. Its proximity to the A1 provides easy access to local attractions, despite some traffic noise. The garden is a delight, and the lodge's cleanliness and comfort are well-regarded, making it a desirable location for a tranquil retreat.

Reviewers consistently mention the cleanliness of the cottage, describing it as 'very clean' and well-maintained, indicating high standards of hygiene and upkeep.

The location is appreciated for its peace and quiet, with easy access to local sites. However, some guests note the distraction of traffic noise from the nearby A1, slightly diminishing the location's appeal.

Guests find the lodge comfortable, mentioning cosy amenities and a homely atmosphere. The presence of electric storage heaters and a coal fire suggests a warm and inviting stay.

The lodge is well-equipped, but some guests suggest minor improvements such as coat hooks and towel storage. The absence of a dishwasher is noted, yet the overall facilities meet guests' needs.

While guests express overall satisfaction, there is no mention of gifts or special touches that would indicate thoughtfulness from the host. Therefore, a score cannot be provided.

    Nice quiet county location. Easy access to holy island Berwick and Bamburgh. Needs care on entering or exiting ont busy A1

  • Mrs Briggs

    We really enjoyed our holiday and staying in Bolam's Lodge. Although it is very close to the A1 the noise of the traffic was not overly intrusive and it does make it very easy to travel to different locations in the area. The views across the fields were lovely and the garden was a delight with rabbits regular visitors. The cottage itself is very homely and comfortable and well equipped. Our only very slight criticisms are, we felt it needed a little TLC in some areas, and a welcome pack after a long journey would have much appreciated. However, overall our experience of staying here was very enjoyable.

    Loved the cottage however the proximity of the A1 was distracting, traffic noise spoilt the bird song!
