Area insights


Broomhouse Steading is located less than a mile from the popular village of Chatton, just a few miles east of Wooler and a short drive from Northumberland’s stunning heritage coastline. Chatton is a thriving community with a village shop and post office, the popular Percy Arms pub, a well-regarded luxury second hand boutique, and a range of clubs and events, including fishing at the Chatton Trout Fishery.

Nearby Wooler, set in the foothills of the Cheviot Hills, offers further amenities such as independent shops, cafes, pubs, a co-op, pharmacy, and direct access to the Northumberland National Park.
Further afield, Alnwick (15 miles south) and Berwick-upon-Tweed (20 miles north) offer broader services and attractions, including Alnwick Castle, the Maltings Theatre, a leisure centre, hospital, and mainline rail connections to Edinburgh and London.

The area is rich in natural beauty and historic interest, with castles, coastal walks, and hiking opportunities in the Cheviots. Despite excellent road and rail links to Newcastle and Edinburgh, both with international airports, this region enjoys a peaceful, low-density lifestyle that’s increasingly hard to find.
