Alnwick is perhaps most famous for its magnificent castle, which contains many renowned paintings and works of art, was used as Hogwarts during the first two Harry Potter films and has also appeared in ITV hit Downton Abbey. The Alnwick Garden was created by the Duchess of Northumberland in 2001 and is a striking landscaped garden with innovative structural design and unique features. There is so much to explore in the garden, with acres of intriguing plants blooming throughout the seasons, water features, a poison garden and the world's largest tree house.

To the east, the Heritage Coast at Alnmouth is just 4 miles and from here the coastal route north offers superb scenery, miles of clean sandy beaches, rocky coves and tiny fishing villages. Whilst to the west, the Northumberland National Park offers excellent walking country as well as smaller historic towns and National Trust properties.
