About this property
Skyelands is a charming holiday retreat set in the vibrant heart of Wooler, Northumberland. Ideal for families or groups of friends, this delightful hideaway welcomes two well-behaved pets and offers easy roadside parking, making it a fantastic base for exploring the picturesque surroundings and creating lasting memories. Step inside, and you'll be greeted by a warm and inviting living/dining room. At its heart, a woodburning stove crackles, promising to be your cosy companion during those cool Northumberland evenings. Whether you're curled up with a book, watching a film on the TV, or simply unwinding with loved ones, the flickering fire adds an extra layer of comfort that makes every moment feel special. The adjoining dining area, with seating for all, is perfect for gathering over hearty, home-cooked meals or mapping out the next day's adventures. The kitchen is well-equipped with everything you need to whip up your favourite dishes, providing a practical yet homely space for culinary creativity. Skyelands offers three thoughtfully furnished bedrooms, a double, a twin, and a single, each offering a peaceful retreat after a day of exploration. The two modern shower rooms, with walk-in showers, ensure a refreshing start or a soothing wind-down at the end of the day. Outside, the rear garden beckons as a tranquil spot for morning coffee or an evening drink, where you can soak in the calming atmosphere of this enchanting Northumberland location. As you venture beyond Skyelands, uncover the wonders that Northumberland has to offer. Ad Gefrin Whisky Distillery is a new to the local area and well worth a visit. Let the little ones delight in the charm of Lili Doreib at Alnwick Castle, explore the medieval ruins of Etal Castle, and immerse themselves in the serene surroundings of St. Cuthbert’s Cave. Discover the hidden beauty of Linhope Spout Waterfall in the scenic Ingram Valley, or take a leisurely walk on Wooler Common, where breathtaking views of the Cheviot Hills await. Why not take a boat trip from Seahouses to the Farne Islands to see the puffins and seals. End your day by unravelling the mysteries of Maelmin Henge and Trail, before returning to the welcoming warmth of Skyelands, a perfect haven to retreat to after your adventures.
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.
