We had a fantastic break at Tarn House. The accommodation was spotlessly clean, bright, spacious and very well equipped, including a really lovely welcome hamper. Thank you! Wooler is a great location from which to explore Northumberland with lots of national trust and English Heritage properties within easy access. Brilliant coastal walks and the beautiful Holy Island all within half an hour's drive. We easily drove to the Scottish borders too. Wooler itself is a great little town and we loved relaxing in the garden after a day of walking. We will definitely be back. Thank you!

Really enjoyed our stay , can’t fault anything about the house, it was central to town and surrounding area, it was easy to get to all the places on the coast as well as the hills and inland. Ideal for walking and cycling which we did , can’t say enough about the house, would definitely recommend and return, thanks
