Dear RitaThank you so much for the lovely review. It was a pleasure meeting you both. Hopefully we will see you again when you visit your daughter. Kind regardsEmma and Marc
I loved it, only a few rooms so BOOK IT NOW. Owner (Marc) was amazing. Parking is safe and secure behind locked electric gates in front of the property. Breakfast lovely and bought to your room. Apartment consisted of bedroom with smart tv, lounge with coffee machine , Xbox, sofa and dining area plus a lush bathroom with huge walk-in shower. No more premier inns for me. Definitely stay again. Thanks Marc

Dear RobertThank you so much for a such a lovely review. It was a pleasure meeting you and hope to welcome you back in the future. Kind regardsMarc
We just undertook a month long trip of the UK and this was absolutely one of our favorite places we stayed. Marc the host has created a lovely room and the bathroom is as pleasant as a 5 star luxury hotel. Marc is also very responsive and helpful. All in all a great experience - don't delay book this unique property and enjoy a peaceful, relaxing nights rest.

We had a wonderful family stay at Hemples Lodge. The room was stylish, clean, and big enough for the four of us, with two smart TVs keeping the kids happy when we weren't out and about. Really lovely breakfast and Marc was a great host.

Dear Jonathan
Thank you so much for your outstanding review. We are delighted you thoroughly enjoyed your stay with us. Best wishes for your impending move to Newcastle.
Kind regards

Everything about this place was perfect for us. Distant enough to be quiet and peaceful but close enough for great places to eat and easy to get to. Clean, smart, comfortable. A much better choice that your average hotel room, with much more space and comfort. Bed was comfy, breakfast delicious and delivered bang on time. Host was attentive and responsive but not intrusive. Would absolutely recommend and will book again.

Lovely getaway outside Newcastle.
Amazing place. Marc is a fantastic host. Breakfast was superb. The only downside was that previous guests had smoked in the room and even though Marc had done a deep clean, it still smelled. Not the owner’s fault though - just inconsiderate guests!

Best regards,

We had a great stay at this fabulous lodge, very comfortable, our host could not have been more welcoming, very modern bathroom with powerful shower and sunken bath, we paid £10 for breakfast, which was a very generous serving and delicious - well worth the money. Highly recommended
