Anyone know anything about wooden worktops?

We moved into our house a couple of years ago, and the kitchen has wooden worktops. They look ok, but I’ve never liked them because they have a slightly sticky feel, and they’re not smooth - you can feel all the little ridges of the wood. Both of these things make them feel like they’re never properly clean.

They also have some marks and stains; in particular, there are black marks around the sink where water has sat.

We’re not sure what to do with them. We don’t want to redo the entire kitchen, and we reckon we’d really like the worktops if they felt a bit cleaner and smoother! Is there something we’re meant to be doing with them to keep them looking better? Like oiling them or something?

Or is it possible to get them sanded down and re-treated or something like that?

I’d never have them again. With a young family and it being a rental it was just a nightmare trying to keep them up together
