“We loved staying in Bracken and Mrs Proctor's friendliness and attention to our needs simply added to the experience.”

Her recommendations for sight-seeing and dining out were spot on. We would definitely recommend Swarland Old Hall pods to others.

“We spent a lovely week in Northumberland.”

Westland is a good base location to explore the county. The pod provided us with very comfortable accommodation in a beautiful tranquil spot. The pod is equipped to a high specification, and we received a warm and friendly welcome from Dianne the host. The welcome basket of goodies is a very nice touch.

“Fantastic hideaway from city life”

Just spent August bank holiday weekend at the luxury pod with my husband. Spotless everything you need in and outside the pod. Comfortable bed, high quality bedding. Nice quality furniture. Nice little touch a basket with goodies. Great place to unwind. Great views. So nice to open the door to see the animals. Well kept grounds. Hosts 10/10 will go back and highley recommend.

“The Pod was perfect for the two of us.”

A really good compact place to stay, the owners were lovely, and the welcome gift was fabulous especially with a bottle of wine and fresh milk in the fridge, not to mention the biscuits and Northumberland tea!! The location is ideal for exploring the area, and you can either relax in the evening in the Pod or outside in the relaxing chairs, or as we did quite a lot, went for walks every evening through the quiet and beautiful Northumberland countryside.

“Dianne was there to meet us and show us around she was also on the end of the phone if we needed anything.”

The whole place was fantastic, the photos do not do it justice.

“Our first experience of "Glamping" and what a way to start.”

The pod (Bracken) was absolutely wonderful, well designed, spotless and a pleasure to stay in. Located in the beautiful grounds surrounding Old Swarland Hall, very tranquil.The photos do not do it justice. Loved waking, looking out and seeing the sheep with their lambs. Found it an easy drive to any location we wished to visit. Thank you also to Diane for the welcome pack, very much appreciated. Would highly recommend the pods or the 2 lodges which we were fortunate to be shown round. Really top class accommodation.

“Superb accommodation in a lovely tranquil setting”

The pods make great accommodation. They are deceptively spacious and contain everything you need for a short break. We were a couple with a young child. The kitchen is really well stocked with everything you need to prepare cooked breakfast. The shower room although snug has a heated towel rail with lovely fluffy warm towels. Despite the cold March weather outside we were toasty warm inside. The wardrobe was big enough to store all our belongings including coats to keep the pod tidy. Location is ideally placed to explore Northumberland. Your just a short drive from the coast, historic Alnwick and some lovely gastro pubs to choose from in the nearby villages. Fantastic hosts in Dianne & Arthur at the farmhouse where keys are collected from. Would highly recommend and we will be returning for another short break soon.
