We know when you’re in holiday mode it can be easy to put those New Year’s resolutions on pause. Slipping out of Dry Jan or not getting those steps in you promised yourself is easily done, but while staying with us you don’t have to put those resolutions on the shelf. Here are a few ways Wooden Star Cottages can help you keep up with your 2024 goals.
Getting 10k Steps In
When staying with us, there’s so much to explore, that we’re confident that you can hit your 10k goal easy. From walks right outside your property, to exploring the neighbouring towns and villages, you’ll be clocking up the steps in no time.
One walk we really recommend is the Cawfields quarry circular. It’s a short drive from Byres, Steadings and Charlton Gate and takes in the rolling hills of Northumberland with a stretch of the historic Hadrian’s Wall. If you’re not up for a big walk, no need to worry, explore the private grounds at Roses Bower or head into Hexham at Seal Cottage or Hexham House Apartments.
Read More
Many people strive to read more when the new year comes around. If your goal is to get more books logged on your Goodreads account then there is nothing better than bringing your current read along with you on holiday. All of our properties are equipped with the cosiest spots that make for excellent reading nooks. Didn’t bring anything to read? Don’t worry, a few of our properties have some books ready for you to pick up.
WSC Recommendation: Corbridge is a short drive away from a few of our properties and is equipped with a fantastic book shop – Forum Books. Hexham, also very close to our properties, has Cogito Books, another amazing bookshop.
Eat Well
Mindful eating is usually at the top of everyone’s resolutions. Trying to cut out the snacking and eating good food. When staying in our properties near Hexham and Corbridge, you will be able to find wonderful restaurants serving outstanding food, including the Beaumont Hotel and The Black Bull who both use local produce to create their delicious menus. Eating well doesn’t mean you can’t eat out!
Self Care
Taking a break away is self-care in itself. All our properties are held to our highest standards of accommodation meaning you know when you stay in a Wooden Star Cottage you’re going to be looked after. This includes luxury baths, hot tubs, cosy bedding, local gifts and much more. You can give self-care a tick when staying with us.
