Perfect setting

Quiet and peaceful. Property exactly as advertised with lovely small garden area and small field amongst trees out the back, with deer spotted one morning. Very clean, owner had thought of everything from small torches in drawers to cleaning materials in cupboards and spare lightbulbs if required. Property very warm, and within about 30-40 minutes drive of nearby Northumberland and Scottish Border places of interest to visit. Property only 2 miles over the Border from England. Welcome pack of biscuits, cakes and honey a nice touch and a pint of milk in the fridge. Tea, sugar and coffee pods available also if required. Visitor information available in Lodge and visitor book to leave your reviews.

Wonderful stay at The Lodge at Spital House

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Lodge. Liz was a fantastic host and answered all of our questions promptly. The cottage was comfortable and cozy, and everything was as described in the listing. The setting is peaceful, surrounded by pastures full of sheep and beautiful gardens. There were several historical places of interest within short drives, and we easily managed day trips to Edinburgh and Loch Lomond. Highly recommend a stay here.

Outstanding Little Gem

The owners of this property have thought of everything someone might need for a fantastic stay. We wanted a quiet getaway, which we got - and thoroughly enjoyed but we both commented that the location of the lodge is perfect for exploring the local area too. We couldn't fault the accommodation for anything, it's superb, well thought out, and highly recommended!
