  • "The accommodation was ideal and fully equipped with all that we needed."

    Beautiful quiet location. The only slight complaint was that the single bed had seen better days, was a bit squeaky, and for me not comfortable. Fortunately there was a spare bed which was better.

    Hi Carran Thanks for your constructive feedback. We’re changing the single bed, but pleased you found the spare bed comfy. We hope you will return soon and try out the new one soon. Thanks again. Regards The Cheviot Manor Team Property Owner

  • "Lovely, quiet location, easy to reach Borders as well as Northumberland attractions."

    Quality bed linen and towels. Tasteful decor and classic furniture. Would definitely recommend this property. Good bottle of wine to welcome us. Useful information in their folder. PS (Not to included in published ) Vanity unit needs upgrading and maybe creating more space in front of the WC.

  • "The cottage was larger than expected."

    Very spacious, well equipped, huge amount of storage, good sized shower and loads of hot water. The heating was also excellent. No wi fi but we survived without it ! This could put some people off booking. No towels, could be a problem for some people but ones that are provided tend to be very small anyway so we would prefer to take our own. Excellent location, quiet and close to Wooler and the excellent Red Lion pub which I can highly recomment. The Northumberland country Park/Cheviot hills are onl the doorstep so wonderful for walkers.

The property

Wooler 2.7 miles.

Ivy Cottage, a striking stone dwelling, hidden away on the tranquil grounds of Akeld Manor, near Wooler.

Surrounded by the breath-taking landscapes of Northumberland National Park whilst remaining just a pleasant drive from the coast, this idyllic holiday home offers the perfect backdrop for a family or group getaway, no matter the occasion!

As you approach, the traditional stone exterior stands proudly against the rolling hills, setting the scene for the charm that awaits inside.

Hang your coats and kick-off your shoes as you step into this warm and homely abode, where the living and dining area is carpeted for extra comfort, adorned with tasteful artwork, and furnished with a plush red sofa and two inviting armchairs, the perfect spot to rest and recuperate from the day’s adventure.

Work together in the charming country-style kitchen, with its tiled flooring and rustic wooden fixtures, as you prepare a hearty banquet with the help of the many handy appliances, before tucking into your creations at the dining table over a fine bottle of wine.

Delight in a moment of peace and quiet as you soak in the spacious tub that decorates the bathroom or freshen up with a brisk rinse in the smart walk-in shower, before grabbing your toasty towel from the heated rail and retreating to your chosen bedroom.

Both bedrooms are carpeted for a snug finish, with the double offering generous storage and the twin providing a delightful space for children.

Beyond the cottage, Akeld Manor brims with exceptional facilities to elevate your stay—from a snooker table and football table for lively evenings, to a shimmering swimming pool and a rustic bar for unwinding in style.

Families will love the dedicated play areas, while those dreaming of a celebration will find wedding and event potential aplenty, supported by trusted contacts for caterers, florists, marquees, celebrants and more.

Embrace your spectacular surroundings as you enjoy a warm cup of coffee out in the communal courtyard, chatting to neighbours before setting about another fun-filled day in Northumberland.

Keep your eyes peeled for the elusive Cheviot goats—shy yet enchanting creatures that roam the wild landscapes and, on rare and magical occasions, wander into the gardens, adding a truly unforgettable touch to your countryside escape.

Adventure awaits you on a stay at Ivy Cottage.

Wooler is a delightful, historic market town on the banks of the River Till, one of the tributaries of the Tweed, nestling in the foothills of the Cheviots which form part of the Pennine Way. Known locally as 'The Gateway to The Cheviots', Wooler has a selection of hotels and eating places and offers a magnificent location for exploring the whole of Northumberland and the Scottish Borders. Situated on the edge of the Northumberland National Park, Wooler is just a short drive away from the historic town of Alnwick with its famous Castle and Gardens, and the well preserved Garrison town of Berwick-upon-Tweed. Chillingham Castle with its ancient herd of wild white cattle and Coldstream, just over the Scottish border, are also a short drive away.
