About Woodhill Hall

The experience begins as you drive through the Northumbrian countryside to reach The Hall. As you proceed up the impressive tree-lined avenue, you will glimpse the grandeur of Woodhill Hall.

The Hall is from an age that knew space, history and culture. In the past, there have been numerous renowned visitors to Woodhill Hall including Abel Chapman (1851- 1929), the famous Victorian explorer, writer, naturalist and founder of the Sabi Game reserve and one of the master minds behind the creation of the Kruger National Park, South Africa.

Evidence of Abel Chapman’s occupation remains to this day with the display of the Narwhals horn, given by him to Miss Jane Gow whom he subsequently married on the 28th September 1885 at St Cuthbert’s Church, Elsdon.
