Dating back to the 1700s, The Tankerville Arms Hotel is a handsome stone-built period property, unmissable by anyone travelling through Wooler. The main entrance leads to the reception desk and beyond to the main public areas. These comprise The Copper Bar, with its open fire and oak beams, the Chillingham Room which is the restaurant seating up to 40 diners, the cosy guest sitting room and also the Cheviot Room, an elegant function room able to set over 40 guests, which leads out into the garden.

The Tankerville Arms Hotel enjoys a prominent position on the main road through the popular town of Wooler, on the edge of the beautiful Northumberland National Park and with the stunning backdrop of the Cheviot Hills. Linked by the A697 to the Scottish Borders, just 15 miles to the north and to Newcastle upon Tyne around 45 miles to the south, the town is surrounded by some delightful countryside and sought after villages and the Northumberland Coastline, with its superb beaches and medieval castles can be reached by car in less than half an hour.

The region attracts leisure visitors and holiday makers all year round and the Tankerville Arms Hotel is very well positioned to take full advantage of this hospitality trade. The recent construction of the hugely impressive Ad Gefrin whiskey and gin distillery, just a few hundred metres from the hotel, has further helped to swell visitor numbers into Wooler and the surrounding areas.

On the ground floor there is a dry storeroom, an office, a laundry room, a bottle store and a disused former public bar which is currently used for storage but could be utilised for a variety of purposes. Ideally located between the restaurant and function room is the large commercial catering kitchen which is very well equipped with ample cooking, washing and cooling appliances plus a good range of prep and store areas.

There are 17 guest bedrooms, all but one of which are on the first floor. They are all ensuite and comprise two singles and two family rooms with the rest being doubles or twins. On the second floor there is the remaining bedroom (number 19) and also a staff flat which could be converted to provide an extra letting suite or combined with room 19 to provide a spacious apartment for a manager or owner.

A driveway to the side leads to the car parking at the rear which provides enough spaces for the busiest of times. The rear beer garden is very attractive being mainly lawned with picnic benches and a play area and would lend itself to small outdoor events and functions, it also provides a breakout area for the Cheviot function room which leads onto it.

The Tankerville Arms Hotel has been in the sellers family for over 40 years and the time has come to sell and move on providing a great opportunity for a new owner to build in the current reputation and client base and to take the business to the next level. The purchaser can look forward to owning a well respected and popular hotel with great potential and in a wonderful part of the world.
