Guests say
Jamaal Lodge is highly praised for its spaciousness, comfort, and well-equipped kitchen. Its proximity to Druridge Bay and local amenities makes it an ideal base for exploring Northumberland. Guests appreciate the secure garden for dogs and the thoughtful touches, such as wine and biscuits. While some minor maintenance issues are noted, the overall experience is very positive, with many guests planning return visits.
The lodge is generally described as clean, with only a few isolated incidents of cleanliness issues such as flies. The majority of guests found the property to be very clean, contributing to a high cleanliness score.
The location is highly regarded for its proximity to beaches, nature reserves, and towns. Despite some comments about the lodge being in a housing estate, the convenience for exploring the area and the quietness of the surroundings are appreciated.
Comfort is well-received with mentions of comfortable beds and spacious living areas. However, there are comments about a sofa needing repair and a travel cot lacking a proper mattress, which slightly lowers the comfort score.
Facilities are generally praised, especially the well-equipped kitchen. However, there are several mentions of maintenance needs and issues with the heating, hot water, and Wi-Fi, which impacts the score for this category.
While there are mentions of welcome gestures such as wine and biscuits, there is not enough consistent information across the reviews to accurately score thoughtfulness. It is also important to note that such gestures are not guaranteed for every stay.
About this property
Amble 3 miles. A fabulous, detached wooden lodge located in the quiet hamlet of South Broomhill, on the rural outskirts of Amble, 4 miles from Warkworth. Situated close to the beautiful Druridge Bay Country Park and Nature Reserve, this spacious property boasts bedrooms on both the ground and first floors, two bathrooms, a first floor balcony and a lovely large garden surrounding the property, including an enclosed rear lawned area, ideal for dining alfresco. Northumberland's delightful Heritage Coast is a mere 1 mile away, whilst Alnwick, Berwick, the Scottish Borders and Newcastle, with its world-famous Metrocentre, are all within easy driving distance. A fantastic property in a great location!
This lively little seaport, with its new marina, bustling harbour, where freshly caught fish can be bought from the shop, glorious sandy beaches and a coastal walk to the bird sanctuary at Hauxley makes this a perfect place to spend a holiday. There are plenty of activities to occupy the whole family right on the doorstep, and Amble-by-the-Sea is also well located from which to explore the rest of Northumberland. To the south of Amble lies Coquet Island, an rspb reserve, where boat trips around the island can be organised and puffins, eider ducks and terns can be seen. There are many charming coastal villages to be discovered including Alnmouth and Craster, whilst further inland the castles of Warkworth and Alnwick along with the National Trust properties of Wallington Hall and Cragside House are all within an easy reach. A superb holiday destination for all the family.

Been six times now. Improved by the addition of a new large TV, Airfryer and updated WiFi. Thank you. Very dog friendly with the friendly Caretaker living opposite. Very easy parking in front of the garage. Close to the wonderful Druridge Bay.
