Well-appointed cottage
Well furnished with good-sized rooms including handy utility room and good-sized downstairs cloakroom. Great location in the centre of Wooler with its own parking, though proximity to the church bells was problematic for one guest. Despite that, I'd definitely recommend.

Short stay in a lovely, homely cottage
The property was clean, fresh, comfortable, homely, spacious and comfortable. It was well located in the centre of the village of Wooler, yet was exceptionally quiet other than for the church clock striking hourly, which was quaint and no issue at all. Parking was very close to the property and away from thoroughfares. Lovely village within an easy car drive from many of the main centres and attractions of north Northumberland, a much overlooked yet beautiful county steeped in considerable history. I can't recommend Northumberland and this property enough!

About the host

Hosted by Karin Smurthwaite

Host profile image
Dave and I were born and bred in the North East and have always felt an affiliation with the region. I spent most of my childhood holidays playing in rock pools along Embleton Bay outside my grandparents 'wooden bungalow' on the dunes

Why they chose this property

We fell in love with Cuthbert's Retreat because of it's quiet location off the Market Place. It is situated along a pink graveled lane, situated in between 'Trotters Family Bakers' and the 'Essence of Beauty' tucked away to the side of the Bus Station. The view of the local church's clock face and tiled roofs is very comforting. Everything you need is literally on your doorstep. Wooler is a very welcoming and friendly place.

What makes this property unique

The peaceful location, stunning countryside and accessibility to the North East Coastline and Scottish Borders make Cuthbert's Retreat unique.
