Twincote
Description
Settled on the outskirts of the historic market town of Wooler, at the foot of The Cheviots, rests this characterful one-bedroom cottage, Twincote.
Enjoying close proximity to the rural delights of Northumberland National Park as well as the England/Scotland border, Twincote makes an excellent base for a couple looking to explore the delights of this sought-after area.
A private off-road parking space greets you upon arrival, making unloading your belongings and settling into your new home-from-home an easy task.
Stepping inside, be charmed by the characterful interior of the open-plan living/dining room, where a rustic woodburning stove sits within an inglenook fireplace, enticing you to cosy up on the sumptuous corner sofa with your better half as the flame crackle nearby.
Moving through the ground-floor, discover the well-equipped kitchen, where an elegant breakfast bar invites you to share a bottle of wine with the designate chef as they get to work on preparing a romantic meal for two.
The adjoining sun room provides an idyllic spot to enjoy an evening tipple, whatever the weather, whilst you can make use of the gravelled front garden in the warmer months.
A well-presented double bedroom can be found tucked beneath the sloped ceiling of the first-floor, where an elegant Velux window will flood the room with natural light in the morning, whilst you can get ready for the day ahead with a blissful soak in the en-suite bathroom.
The heart of Wooler rests a short distance from Twincote, where you'll find a bustling high-street home to all of your local amenities, including hearty cafes, traditional pubs and handy takeaways, ideal for those evenings where you fancy a break from doing the cooking, whilst you can stock-up on essentials at the convenience store as well as the new Whiskey distillery in Wooler called Ad Gefrin.
Enjoying a rural position at the foot of The Cheviot Hills, you're in an outdoor adventurers paradise; wrap up warm and enjoy a peaceful stroll through the scenic greenery of Wooler Common, lace up your walking boots and hike to the summit of Humbleton Hill, or take a step back in time and discover the remnants of Hadrian's Wall, running nearby through Northumberland National Park.
The town of Coldstream is easily accessible, resting just over the border in Scotland, home to Coldstream Museum, Hirsel Golf Club and the iconic Coldstream Bridge, whilst Alnwick Castle can be found in the opposite direction, famed as the backdrop behind Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry in the Harry Potter movies.
A memorable retreat to the country for two awaits at Twincote.

What guests are saying
We absolutely love your dear cottage “Twincote” it was more than we had hoped for, a real home from home.
So cosy , comfortable, warm, great facilities too, loved the busy bee theme . The extra little touches, milk in the fridge, biscuits, bottle of mellow red wine were very much appreciated. Comfy bed with soft pillows, ensured we slept like logs, recharging our batteries for the next exciting day exploring your beautiful area. Views & outlook from the property are superb. We hope to return for sure
An excellent, cosy, comfortable little cottage for 2.
Absolutely lovely place to stay, with a nice little welcome pack too! Only downside was the busy road, that didn’t make the parking very easy and the cottage would not be suitable for anybody over 6 foot tall due to the low ceilings upstairs. But otherwise would highly recommend
Situated right next to an extremely busy road, there were lorries thundering past both day & night.
Inside the cottage is lovely, comfortable & spacious, but not conducive to a peaceful night’s sleep due to the traffic.
