Padley's Place

Located in the heart of Wooler, Padley’s Place is an elegant three-storey home that blends period charm with contemporary comfort. Once home to the town’s long-serving pharmacist, it has been thoughtfully restored to create a stylish and welcoming retreat. With views over the high street and neighbouring church — and Wooler’s shops, pubs, and walking routes just steps away — it’s perfectly placed to enjoy the best of this bustling market town. Wooler is a brilliant base for exploring Northumberland, whether you’re heading into the Cheviot Hills, exploring the coast, or soaking up the local atmosphere. Known as the ‘Gateway to the Cheviots’, the town offers independent shops, friendly pubs, and local restaurants, along with a nine-hole golf course and the excellent Ad Gefrin Anglo-Saxon Museum and Whisky Distillery. The Northumberland National Park is just moments from the doorstep, offering miles of scenic trails for walkers and cyclists. If you’re exploring by car, Bamburgh Castle and beach, Holy Island, and the Ford & Etal Estate all make for unforgettable day trips.

Stone steps lead up to the front porch and boot room, a handy spot for outdoor gear, followed by a welcoming hallway with space for coats. At the heart of the home is a spacious and beautifully finished kitchen-diner, perfect for relaxed breakfasts or leisurely dinners beside the wood burner. A convenient WC is located just off the hallway.

On the first floor, you’ll find two lounges, each offering something a little different. The first is calm and inviting, with dual-aspect windows overlooking the church and high street — an ideal spot for morning coffee, a quiet read, or a glass of wine at the end of the day. Shelves are filled with books to browse, and there’s even a computer available if needed. The second lounge has a more playful energy, with a Smart TV, PlayStation 4, and DVD player perfect for film nights, games, or simply unwinding after a day of exploring. This floor also features a comfortable king-size bedroom with views of the church, and a stylish family bathroom with a freestanding bath, walk-in shower, and WC.

The top floor has two further bedrooms: a bright twin and a charming double with far-reaching countryside views. The double room also features a telescope which is ideal for stargazing and making the most of Northumberland’s famously dark skies. A separate shower room with WC completes the upper level.

While the property doesn’t have a private garden, its central location means you’re just steps from Wooler’s open spaces and benches, perfect for enjoying a morning coffee or catching the afternoon sun. Free on-street parking is available nearby, along with a public car park just a short stroll away.
