Overview

A walkers’ paradise, Wooler sits on the edge of Northumberland’s spectacular National Park. This tiny, stone-built market town is home to a bustling High Street with a smattering of traditional shops, pubs and cafes, along with churches and buildings that date back to the 17-1800s.

Also known as ‘‘The gateway to the Cheviots’, Wooler’s location beside the rugged Cheviot Hills, where trickling streams weave their way through the plunging valleys ( see pic 2), attracts hikers. Crumbling hillforts, the panoramic Border Ridge route and plunging waterfalls are scattered across the breath-taking scenery, and you can go feral-goat-spotting for the Neolithic breed that roam the hills. Humbleton Hill (see pic 1) features in Shakespeare.
