Overview
Property code: OC-COQ85

Situated in the stunning Wooler, the gateway to the Cheviots, this family-friendly Victorian retreat steeped in history is perfectly placed for uncovering the natural beauty of Northumberland. Bordering the Northumberland National Park, nestled in the foothills of the Cheviots, the market town of Wooler is a haven for keen outdoor explorers, perfectly placed for discovering the beautiful landscapes of Langleeford, 5.5 miles away, the Ingram Valley, 11.5 miles away, and Linhope Spout, 15.5 miles away. From boat trips to the picturesque, wildlife haven of the Farne Islands to trekking around the gloriously golden dune landscape, the charming harbourside village of Seahouses, 19 miles away, is a perfect day out for keen coastal explorers and nature lovers alike. The border town of Berwick-upon-Tweed, offering two gorgeous beaches, coastal and country river walks, and some lovely cafes, can be reached within 18 miles.

Retaining much of its Victorian charm, the beautiful entrance hallway that welcomes you into this stunning retreat leads you through to the spacious lounge, which centres around an open fire housed within a beautiful period fireplace. A huge bay window looking out to the front of the property offers a lovely view to enjoy as you sit back and relax on the plush sofas. Boasting a delightful wood burner that adds character, the cosy snug provides a wonderfully homely area perfect for catching up on a good book, whilst the adjoining dining room is the perfect space for socialising with the whole family, flooded with sunlight from the large picture windows overlooking the garden. The heart of this retreat can be found in the stylish, elegant kitchen, which enjoys the perfect mix of classic and contemporary, with marble-style surfaces and chic shaker-style cabinets that exude style and sophistication. You’ll also find a contemporary shower room on the ground floor. The three bedrooms upstairs echo the rich heritage of the property, whilst providing a peaceful retreat to retire to. There is one en-suite super-king-size bedroom boasting a fabulous roll-top bath set within a gorgeous bay window, one super-king-size zip-and-link bedroom (can be made up as a twin on request), and one king-size bedroom on offer, as well as a contemporary family shower room.

We had a fantastic stay. The house is beautiful, loved the decor. The wonderful welcome pack with local produce and home baked cake for us and a pack for our dog was such a nice touch. Its just a short walk into Wooler and a drive to the coast. The hot tub was an added bonus which we used. We would happily stay here again.

Strathmore is a lovely welcoming house that was ideal for our family gathering for a big birthday. There was plenty of room for 6 adults and 3 dogs. The kitchen had all the necessary utensils, the bedrooms were very good with super comfortable beds and the lounge and dining areas were great for us all to get together. We were greeted upon arrival wRead moreith a lovely welcome hamper including fresh cake, which was much appreciated. We had favourable weather during the week so we were able to make good use of the lovely gardens, seating areas and the hot tub. Catherine was on hand when needed and responded very promptly to a minor issue we had on arrival. The house is situated very close to the shops, pubs and cafes in Wooler, and Wooler is a lovely village. We had a fantastic week at Strathmore. Thank you. Hide

I cannot help but give this place five stars. The customer service began with a phone call in the afternoon of our first day, telling us that the cottage was ready for us. We were walking around the village with a couple of hours to spare, so this was great news. We walked in to fresh flowers, a handmade cake (delicious) and everything else we coulRead mored wish for. The beds were comfortable, the sofas were comfortable, there were plenty of cups and plates in the kitchen, together with a coffee machine, and lots of books to choose from. We went in the hot tub, and were surprised to find flipflops and towels to use. They have literally thought of everything. We were both sad to leave. Hide

Communication prior to arrival with the cottage owners was great . We loved the sociable space . The house was spacious yet cosy and welcoming . The hot tub was a firm favourite and was enjoyed by all. It felt very private and we were deranged by the garden blackbird and robins I loved the history of the building and the amazing old veterinary bookRead mores which were a nod to the houses past . We liked the close proximity to Wooler and enjoyed lunch at the Blackbull and a dinner at Milan - everyone was very friendly . Hide

We stayed here as 5 adults, 2 couples and elderly father. As we walked in the cottage we were delighted with the initial impression of the property, however we soon noticed faults which should have been identified and put right!! Curtains falling off curtain poles in 2 rooms. Cobwebs and dust in all rooms, the downstairs shower does not drain for hRead moreours so can only be used by 1 person for a short shower leaving a few hours for it to drain. The shower head on upstairs shower needs replacing! We couldnt get the main sitting room warm because the window was extremely draughty! We spent all our time in the snug which was very comfortable except for the broken leg on the footstool. The main bedroom was very draughty, the blinds moved with the wind so this room was pretty cold. The en suite was filthy, the toilet didnt empty without plunging and the extractor blew in black bits. The main toilet upstairs didnt empty well either which is not ideal when it services the needs of 4 people (due to the downstairs bathroom flooding from the shower) I think this house could be amazing as the decor and furnishings are fantastic and the beds were super comfy. The welcome pack was fabulous. I feel it needs a really good thorough clean and the drainage issues looking at. We did mention the drainage and footstool to the owner who said she was aware of these issues, clearly maintenance is required. The property is ideally located for access to all Northumberland has to offer. Hide
