Once home to the village’s first vet, this Victorian retreat has an impeccable pedigree. Sitting in gorgeous gardens with a summerhouse and hot tub, it features five bedrooms plus a choice of elegant social spaces that offer your pack plenty of options for time together and apart.
A grand hallway leads into the large lounge with there’s a Smart TV and selection of comfortable seating; on cooler evenings the open fire will warm the pups’ paws while you unwind. A wood burner adds after-dark ambience in the cosy snug, which sits between a handsome dining room and the chic, Shaker-style kitchen – the dogs will love being able to stay close while you cook, eat and unwind. A contemporary shower room completes the ground floor layout. Once you’ve said goodnight to your four-pawed pals, take your choice from five sophisticated bedrooms across the first and second floors. The master boasts a super-king-size bed, en-suite WC and a roll-top bath set within a gorgeous bay window. One super-king-size zip-and-link bedroom has its own TV and can be made up as a twin on request, and there are two king-size bedrooms and one en-suite twin bedroom. A contemporary shower room on the first floor provides convenience for all. Your living space extends into a garden with a large lawn, south-west-facing patio, mature planting and summerhouse. Enclosed so that children and pets can play safely, the garden also offers the ultimate in laid-back luxury: a bubbling hot tub.
Park and explore Wooler at your own pace – home to welcoming shops, inns and eateries plus a wealth of historic buildings, the market town is known as the ‘gateway to the Cheviots’ and sits on the edge of the Northumberland National Park. Enjoy tail-wagging walks across the surrounding countryside or head to the coast: Bamburgh (15.5 miles) has a beautiful beach and a Grade I-listed castle with dog-friendly grounds. Take a boat trip from Seahouses (19 miles) to the wildlife-rich Farne Islands – dogs are welcome on board.
