Wooler is the place to be!  Don’t just take my word for it follow the links:

http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/life_and_style/food_and_drink/eating_out/a_a_gill/article7011272.ece and http://www.telegraph.co.uk/property/buyingsellingandmoving/7220711/Downsizing-the-upside.html.

The celebrated food writer A. A. Gill had such a good experience at the Milan Restaurant, which is located behind our house, that he wrote commending not only the food, the restaurant, but Wooler.  The following week, The Daily Telegraph did the top ten places in Britain to downsize to and yes, you’ve guessed it, top of the list was Wooler beating Aylesbury, Malmesbury, Faversham to take the accolades which, of course, immediately puts up the price of houses, a not altogether helpful thing for those locally who are trying to buy, but nevertheless a real boost for the local economy.

Our good friends and Community Companions Martin and Bekah Neil have been intimately involved in a project to record the Wagogo people in Africa, in order to provide wells in their villages. Trust me, you need to buy this CD and DVD set. It may well change your life, and it will certainly change theirs... You can order it from our Resources area.
