Berwick East Coast mainline train station is only eighteen miles away. With its extremely low crime rate, vibrant community spirit, down to earth friendly people, independent shops, and local services, it is easy to see why Wooler is so popular amongst tourists and residents.
The town has excellent local amenities which include Cheviot Farm Bakery, TR Johnson Butcher, The Good Life Deli, The Chocolate Box, Ad Gefrin Whiskey Distillery, The Co-op Supermarket, Budgen’s Convenience Store and numerous independent pubs, cafes, and restaurants. Schools include Glendale Middle School and Wooler First School; both have excellent reputations.
