Alnwick

The historic county town of Northumberland. 

The medieval past is on show with the magnificent Alnwick Castle -  ancestral home of the Dukes of Northumberland. But in its grounds you'll also find the impressive Alnwick Garden with its fountain cascade with constantly changing displays.

​

The town itself is not to be missed, with ancient marketplace and lovely shops and eateries.

​

Harry Potter and Blackadder fans will recognise the castle as it has been used in a backdrop for these and lots of other films and TV shows.

Best travel option:

  • Car

  • Bus from Haymarket bus station X15, X18, X20

  • Train to Alnmouth, then taxi or bus, X18, X20
