Description

The Tankerville Arms Hotel, Wooler - A Landmark Investment Opportunity in Northumberland.

If you are unfamiliar with Wooler in Northumberland and are viewing the hotel on a property portal, we have you covered. Simply head to our website to explore a detailed video of the property and its surroundings.

Set in the historic market town of Wooler, on the edge of the Northumberland National Park, the Tankerville Arms Hotel is a distinguished Grade II Listed 18-bedroom period property offering huge potential for redevelopment or repositioning. Steeped in history and character, this handsome stone-built former coaching inn is unmissable to anyone travelling through the town and has long been a focal point in the area.

Dating back to the 1700s, the property combines classic period architecture with generous internal space, comprising:

18 guest bedrooms (17 en-suite)

The Copper Bar with open fire and oak beams

The Chillingham Room restaurant seats around 40 diners

Guest sitting room and reception

The Cheviot Room function suite suitable for weddings and events

Large commercial catering kitchen

Office, laundry and storage areas

Pleasant rear beer garden and lawn with seating and a play area

On-site car park with ample parking

The property also includes a staff flat and additional rooms on the upper floor, which could be converted to provide further guest accommodation or a private manager?s apartment.

Location

The Tankerville Arms Hotel occupies a prominent position on the main road through Wooler, a pretty and popular market town in North Northumberland. The town is known as the ?Gateway to the Cheviots?, offering immediate access to the Northumberland National Park and breathtaking countryside walks.

The surrounding region is rich in natural beauty and heritage. The stunning Northumberland Coast, with its golden beaches, castles and seaside villages such as Bamburgh, Seahouses and Holy Island, lies just 30 minutes away. The Scottish Borders are around 15 miles north, while Newcastle upon Tyne is approximately 45 miles south via the A697.

Wooler enjoys a steady flow of visitors year-round, drawn by its friendly atmosphere, scenic setting and access to some of Northumberland?s best countryside and coast. The area?s combination of rural charm, tourist appeal and strong local amenities makes it a proven location for successful hospitality ventures.

The Opportunity

The Tankerville Arms Hotel has been owned by the same family for over 40 years, presenting a rare opportunity for a new owner to build upon its established reputation and bring fresh vision to one of Northumberland?s most recognisable hospitality properties.

The building offers exceptional scope for re-investment and repositioning ? whether as a boutique hotel, destination restaurant, wedding and event venue, or a combination of uses such as serviced apartments and leisure accommodation.

Its large footprint, ample parking and outdoor space also make it ideal for further expansion, subject to planning, or for developing a unique hospitality offering that complements Wooler?s growing tourism economy.
