Find My Favourite Holiday Cottages in Wooler

Wooler, a market town in Northumberland, is often called the “Gateway to the Cheviots” on the edge of the Northumberland National Park. With the long-distance Pennine Cycle Way and St. Cuthbert’s Way Walk running close by, it’s a real Mecca for walkers and ramblers who travel far and wide to enjoy the fantastic scenery. The Cheviots are a range of rolling hills straddling the English-Scottish border; they are perfect for walking fanatics and, during the winter season, even host The Cheviots Ski Club. And even though ski chalets aren’t exactly the most common form of accommodation on your Northumberland holiday, Wooler offers the next best thing; a wealth of beautiful holiday cottages – catering to your every holiday need.

Wooler is a very active community, both sports-wise and in terms of hospitality. There are many sports facilities catering to tennis, football and swimming – plenty of places to tire the kids out during your stay in your Northumberland Holiday Cottage. Borders Gliding Club provides a service where you can go gliding with an instructor and fully take in the awesome sights, or you can take lessons yourself and learn to fly on your holiday break away. Whether you admire the incredible countryside from the ground or the air, it will always take your breath away.

Wooler is small but well worth the journey to this ruggedly beautiful corner of the North East for the amazing countryside and outdoor activities. If you don’t quite fancy the height of flying, there are plenty of ways to discover the Cheviots: on foot, by bike or horseback; get in touch with the local stables and trot your way across this fine stretch of land. If walking isn’t your thing, perhaps a spot of fly fishing on the River Tweed might appeal; spend days exploring historical attractions from Iron Age settlements to a restored corn mill. You can also find plenty of tearooms and friendly pubs to make a pit stop halfway through your day, where tourists are welcomed with open arms.
