Welcome to Wooler Community Website...
Wooler, a small, attractive stone-built town, perched high above the Wooler Water is a natural gateway to the Cheviot Hills and the Northumberland National Park. From its main street formed by the Market Place and High Street three roads lead off through the foothills into the National Park. The busy main street with its inns, specialist shops, working pottery and grocery stores is the leading shopping centre in the area with a reputation for friendly, helpful service. Wherever you are in the town you are aware of the beauty of the surrounding scenery - on the one side the fell sandstone moors across the valley below - and on the other the majestic Cheviot Hills rising behind the town to form a magnificent backdrop.
Wooler is an excellent base for a holiday, offering a wide range of accommodation from hotels to camping sites and a Youth Hostel. The foothills with their quiet backroads and bridleways are ideal for cycling and riding. Within a short car journey you can be on the magnificient Heritage coastline of North Northumberland with it's spectacular scenery from Bamburgh Castle and the Holy Island of Lindisfarne to Seahouses and the spectacular Farne Islands. Alnwick with its historic castle and the famous Alnwick Gardens lie a few miles south while the Scottish Borders are within easy travelling distance from wooler on uncluttered country roads.
