  • "What a beautifully presented holiday cottage in the middle of the lovely town of Wooler."

    Sadly we were unable to use the lovely garden due to the weather but the facilities for younger guests looked great. Very enjoyable stay.

  • "The cottage was perfect for us!"

    It was clean, comfortable and extremely quiet. The summer house was a great feature. We felt at home right from the start. The local shops were handy and Wooler is a short drive from many attractions such as Holy Island and Cragside. We definitely intend to return.

  • "Our 3rd visit in 2 years, (and sadly, probably our last) but what a disappointment."

    A major USP of this charming cottage has been the charming, split-level traditional rear cottage garden, but it clearly hasn't been tended for several weeks. The grass was up to 10"s long in places, the patios were overgrown with weeds, garden furniture had bird droppings and large weeds were even growing out of the front cottage walls. So disappointing.

  • "Wooly Lodge was very clean and everything we needed for a comfortable stay was provided."

    The treats were lovely.chocolate .wine and a welcome loaf of bread and milk were much appreciated. As it was our first stay at the cottage we didn't know what to expect so we were pleasantly surprised and would make a return visit if holidaying in Northumberland again.

  • "The kitchen worktops metal end caps were both bent outwards, there were badly tea stained mugs crockery had to be washed before use also glasses there were crumbs in cupboards, frying pan so burnt could not be used as teflon coating comes off on food , baking trays much the same."

    we were there two weeks but were given no clean bedding or towels or offered a clean for secong week. You could not shut inner front door. I could not mop floors as the mops were dirty and smelly. It needs a deep clean. Its a shame as it could be a lovely property. I also found a patch of black dog/cat hairs on duvet in double room . It stated there was a washing line never found it. There are beautiful quality bedding towels etc in this property and is in a very quiet part of wooler, It would be helpful if sugar was left for guests so they can have a drink when they arrive.

The property

Resting in the centre of Wooler, Northumberland is this quaint property, Woolley Lodge.

Perfect for a family of four or two couples, the single-story semi-detached cottage hosts two bedrooms and sits on the doorstep to Northumberland National Park, offering views of the Cheviots from a fantastic, large rear garden.

Admire the row of pretty, stone-wall properties on the quiet street before stepping inside your holiday home, where there is a small entrance to leave your shoes before settling in.

The open-plan living/dining room is a welcoming space with charming painted beams, feature fireplaces, dining for four and an inviting leather suite, including two armchairs and a sofa; start the woodburning stove for added comfort whilst you gather the family together for a movie night.

A skylight brings plenty of natural light into the smart, contemporary kitchen, where you can prepare hearty breakfasts and hot dinners using the fabulous range cooker and induction hob, and a generous fridge/freezer is ideal for stocking up on your favourite ingredients.

After exploring nearby attractions or trekking through the National Park, the bathroom is the perfect setting to unwind; wash the day away in the walk-in shower or relax in the bubbles of the roll top bath, whilst your towel warms up on the heated towel rail.

Two bright, airy bedrooms invite guests to climb under the sheets and rest their heads ready for the next day's adventures, including a king-size bed with gorgeous, hand-painted furnishings, as well as a twin with storage for belongings.

With the sun shining, why not take your meal outside to Woolley Lodge's fabulous, multi-level garden?

Bursting with plants and plenty of lawn space for picnics, alongside decking with outdoor seating where you can enjoy your morning coffee and listen to the church bells, you'll want to make the most of this wonderful outdoor space that boasts views of the Cheviots.

At the top of the garden lies an external games room which younger guests will relish as a little escape.

Woolley Lodge is in a central location for exploring Wooler and other historic locations; a short journey will take you to the market town's amenities, making for a comfortable self-catering holiday with plenty of shops and dining options within reach, as well as being a popular base for walkers.

Drive east to the picturesque coast where Bamburgh, is home to a pristine sandy beach, jus a 30 minute drive away, overlooked by the looming Bamburgh Castle, or head to the centre for the fascinating Grace Darling Museum, commemorating the life of Victorian Britain’s greatest heroine.

Berwick-upon-Tweed is another historic town lying north of Woolley Lodge, known for its Elizabethan town walls, spectacular views across the River Tweed estuary and Berwick's three bridges, alongside four sandy beaches for sun-filled days by the sea.

Travel south to Alnwick, nestled in the heart of Northumberland; visit the medieval Alnwick Castle with Harry Potter-inspired activities, stop at The Treehouse Restaurant for a fairy-tale dinner inside the expansive Alnwick Gardens, before finishing the day at Bailiffgate Museum to explore local history and heritage inside an incredible church.

Woolley Lodge is the perfect location to explore the ancient woodlands and rolling hills of Northumberland, whilst welcoming towns lie within reach.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £250.

WOOLER

Berwick-upon-Tweed 16 miles; Bamburgh 15 miles; Alnwick 18 miles.

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.
