One bedroom · One lake

Everything two people need.
Nothing they don’t.

JEM Lodge is a lake cabin with a hot tub on a 75-acre Northumberland farm, twenty minutes from Newcastle — and the only building on the shore of its private five-acre lake. Fishing and the rowing boat are included in your stay.

A king-size bed, a living space with the lake filling its windows, a log burner for the evenings, a kitchen that’s properly stocked, and a deck with a hot tub where the day ends. The lodge sleeps two in comfort — with a fold-away bed and a cot if you’re bringing a small extra guest.

The deck

The best room is outside.

The covered deck runs the width of the lodge, a few steps above the water. Hot tub at one end, table at the other, and the lake doing its thing in front of you.

There’s a BBQ by the water for the brave, blankets for the sensible, and almost no light pollution — so when the sky is clear, stay out.

House notes

No pets and no smoking — we keep the lodge a low-allergen space. Check-in from 3pm (we’ll meet you and show you how everything works), check-out by 11am. The track to the lodge is unlit, so aim to arrive before dark on your first night if you can.

Questions

Before you book

Is the lodge warm in winter?

Yes. There is central heating throughout and a log burner in the lounge — logs and firelighters are provided.

How many people can stay?

Up to three: two in the king-size bedroom, plus a third — usually a child — on a fold-away bed in the lounge. A cot is available for a baby. Choose your party in the Guests box and the quote includes everyone.

Is fishing included?

Yes — fishing, the rowing boat and the canoe are included in every stay. Bring your own rod and a valid Environment Agency rod licence (it is a legal requirement on any freshwater in England).

Can we bring a dog?

We’re sorry — no pets, and no smoking. We keep the lodge a low-allergen space.

Guest reviews

Don’t take our word for it

“I'm absolutely fuming… that I've had to leave this absolutely gorgeous haven today. Wonderful cabin tucked away, very private, windows everywhere to maximise the views. We loved our three nights — we did not want to return to normal life. Hot tub with views was on and ready the whole time. We will book next year!”
Thomas · Airbnb
“A perfect patch of heaven, beautiful cabin in a stunning location. The hot tub overlooking the lake was just blissful! Will and Bea could not have been more accommodating — even bringing us some rice when we realised we hadn't brought any.”
Debbie · Booking.com
“The most wonderful stay for our mini-moon after our wedding. Absolutely spotless, the location was serene, and it was especially sweet that their children had even heard about our wedding and mentioned it when we arrived!”
Natalie · Airbnb
“We drove almost 4 hours to get to the cabin and it was worth it. Will and Bea were great — easy to get hold of, very friendly and helpful.”
