The co-founder of one of Northumberland's biggest ever tourism investments has hailed a "new golden age" for her hometown after it was named one of the best places to live in the UK.
Wooler was one of three areas of the North East named on The Times' Best Places to Live 2023 list. And the main reason for Wooler's inclusion on the index was brand new visitor experience and whisky distillery, Ad Gefrin.
The release of the list coincides with the opening of the £16m attraction this weekend, with the first visitors set to walk through its doors on Saturday. However, it was not just the museum and distillery which the judges liked in Wooler, also citing the friendly artistic community who call the town home.
