Waterford Lodge Hotel

The staff were amazing! We had originally booked for one night as a part of our stay on the way to out trip around Scotland, however as the hotel we had booked for the night before was less than suitable, we called and asked if they had a room available the day prior to our booked stay and thankfully they did. We were out in room 11 for the first night. The room was cleaned to a good standard and was clearly decorated somewhat recently and was more modern. We had dinner in the restaurant that evening also and found it to be excellent value for money. We are quite picky, but my children loved the burgers which were amazing quality and the chilli I had was delicious and the portion sizes were great. We were really shocked at the cost of them, and noted to the staff that we would happily have paid double without thinking twice about it. Breakfast was a bit confusing to navigate, but we appreciate we did turn up at the 11th hour. The cooked breakfast was good and the staff were really accommodating and kind. For our second night we were in room 4 which I think hadn’t been modernised yet. However it was a good amount of space (a double and two singles) with plenty of space to move around. Ultimately we’re not really sure on how they manage to keep their prices so low for food and accommodation as our breakfast was included in the cost too. It’s not the ritz, but Ive stayed in a lot worse for a LOT more money. It’s cheap and cheerful, and I will emphasise the cheerful part. The staff were absolutely lovely: I don’t want to use incorrect pronouns (so apologies if I am!) but there was a member of staff with short black hair and a lip stud who was absolutely fabulous on our second night here. They went above and beyond and was really kind and patient with our two children (who could probably make a nun swear in all honesty). They were so helpful and honestly a credit to the place. We’d like to thank all the staff, and would thoroughly recommend staying here to anyone.

Lovely place with a pub/restaurant on site. Great location in the town. Good sized room with nice outlook. Tea and coffee making facilities supplied in the room, toiletries and fresh clean towels included. Breakfast was plentiful with good choices. Staff very friendly and helpful. Private parking at the rear of the pub or public parking in the front. Walking distance to town centre. Only 30mins drive to Newcastle and plenty of interesting places to visit. Would stay here again if in the area.

Great location, good value for money, very clean rooms. Reception worker was very attentive whilst working bar and other things as well as reception. She could teach the younger staff members if she didn't have so many jobs to do herself

Thanks to Diana and all her staff. We received a lovely, friendly welcome on arrival. Our room was fantastic, so much space for us and our pampered pooch. Our breakfast was really nice too and our dog even got treated to her own portion of sausage and fried egg - she was soooo happy!! We were only visiting overnight but, had we needed to be in Morpeth for any length of time, we would definitely have been more than happy to extend our stay at The Waterford Lodge. The neighbouring park was perfect for walking our dog and the atmosphere and food and service in the hotel was very good indeed. We would definitely recommend this accommodation and hopefully we will get the opportunity to return one day.

Large comfortable room with great bathroom facilities with ample parking to the rear of the hotel. Cooked breakfast to order was really good. Staff very friendly and helpful. Morpeth is a beautiful town with plenty to do and a vast array of dining establishments available. Busy town with a nice and relaxed vibe. Certainly book again and would highly recommend
