Stayed here for an overnight on our way to Scotland and it was ideal. Room was perfectly adequate with the most stunning views. The breakfast was amazing. All the staff were friendly. We explored Bamburgh and Seahouses and it is a great location to be able to do that. Would definitely stay again and would recommend.

Away overnight to visit the Northumberland Coast. Purdy Lodge is an ideal location to explore the area, easy to find off the A1, comfortable and quiet room and handy to have a Restaurant, Bar and Cafe on site. A pleasant stay.

Excellent location for all the Castles and other attractions nearby including the coast.
Suprisingly quiet being so close to the A1.
Staff are excellent and the food was good.

At first a rather unassuming place along a very busy A1 main road, by a petrol station.
Yet, once installed after a swift checkin with a very friendly member of staff, the view on the Northumberland countryside from the bedroom is nice and soothing, and the noise of traffic is absent.
There are two options for a dinner, a café and a restaurant. The restaurant is the best for value.
Quite a find. And did I mention the nice and helpful staff?

We really enjoyed our stay at Purdys Lodge. So easy to get to, very clean and the staff can’t do enough for you. All very friendly and work together as a team. Really good breakfast. We ate there most evenings as the food offered was very good also the bar offered a good selection of drinks. Although it’s on the A1 all the rooms are on the back overlooking fields so traffic noise is minimal.

Lovely, friendly staff. We had 2 dogs with us and they were welcomed very nicely. The food in the restaurant was very average, although breakfast was excellent.
We had a king sized room, which was in my opinion very small. The room was very hot, a fan or air conditioning would be something to consider?
The bed was comfortable.
Having 2 reasonably large dogs, negotiating the upper floor was relatively difficult.

An ideal stopover for us on our way to catch the ferry from Aberdeen. It's a relatively quiet part of the A1, leafy, and fields with distant views of Bamburgh and the sea (all rooms have this view so away from the road). We had a great family room, a bed each for us - 3 adults and 2 pooches. Staff were very friendly and hard working. Breakfast was great, tasty and plentiful. Thanks all, see you on our return.

Stayed here as an unplanned stop mostly because of price and availability, so my expectations weren’t high. However I was pleasantly impressed by the whole place. The room faces an uninterrupted view of fields, was clean and warm. It had a properly sized bath and everything was clean and well maintained.
Breakfast was good as was the Wi-Fi.
I had to stay in the bar and wait for my vehicle to be recovered which was also comfortable and calming.
