St Cuthbert's Retreat
St Cuthbert's Retreat is on Rodwell Lane in Wooler. It's attached to our bookshop, but the cottage itself is private. You get your own garden out the back, but you have to go up a few steps to get to it. It looks out over a pond.
It sleeps four. Two bedrooms upstairs, one double and one twin. There are two bathrooms, which is handy, and one of them is a decent shower room on the ground floor.
It's a 3 Star place. That means it's clean, warm, and has what you need, but it's not luxury. The stairs are normal.
You can bring two dogs. The garden is enclosed. It's got a washing machine, towels are included, and there's bike storage if you need it.
Wooler's a proper market town. There's a Co-op for groceries, a couple of butchers, and some good pubs. The Milan does Indian food. The Doddington Milk Bar is good for coffee and ice cream.
You're right on the edge of the Northumberland National Park here. The Cheviot hills start at the end of the street. For a straightforward walk, you can pick up the St. Cuthbert's Way. For coast, it's about half an hour's drive. Bamburgh Castle and beach are worth it. Seahouses is where you get the boats out to the Farne Islands if you want to see the puffins.
Other places within half an hour: Alnwick for the castle and gardens, Chillingham for the wild cattle, and you can be in Scotland at Coldstream. Berwick-upon-Tweed is about twenty minutes.
For planning, the Northumberland National Park site is useful, and the County Council has walking routes.
