“We were in Rose Lodge.”
There is virtually nothing in the property advertising to suggest the lodge is right in the middle of a farm. Our pup escaped the lead the minute we arrived and ran after a rooster, as all the farm birds are roaming right next to the properties. Our lodge was at the end which was right next to the barn. While we absolutely love animals, we have a reactive dog who reacts to animal sounds. I also have hay fever so spent my time with a runny nose and streaming eyes. I think it should be clearer in the description that farm animals would be wandering free. I also think a gate at the porch of the property would add an extra layer of security, rather than having just the front door. The TV cut out one night and apparently it's a common problem. Apart from that we enjoyed our stay, the lodge is beautiful, very well equipped and very close to the gorgeous beach. The beds were extremely comfortable. I would recommend Link House Farm for a peaceful break and the perfect base for exploring the Northumberland coast.
