Alnwick Cottages

Visit historic sites & attractions...

Alnwick Castle is one of the most iconic and historic castles in England, and a visit to Alnwick would not be complete without exploring this impressive fortress and its grounds. Having gained fame as a filming location for numerous films and TV shows, including Harry Potter and Downton Abbey, the castle's majestic towers dominate the town's skyline. Enter the opulent State Rooms, admire the impressive gatehouse, and take part in a range of events and activities throughout the year, from Broomstick Training to Dragon Quest. The castle is surrounded by the sprawling estate of Hulne Park, home to woodland trails, open meadows, and historic landmarks like the Hulne Priory and Brizlee Tower. Nearby Alnwick Garden is well worth a visit, with its beautiful floral displays and sculptures; a spectacular water feature known as the Grand Cascade; and magnificent gardens including the Poison Garden, the Rose Garden and the Cherry Orchard. Kids will love the exciting play areas, from the Bamboo Labyrinth to the Serpent Garden, whilst the magical Treehouse Restaurant offers a whimsical dining experience among the treetops.

Discover the charming town centre...

As you wander through the historic town centre, you'll no doubt be enchanted by the winding streets lined with charming shops, cosy cafes and inviting pubs. One of the town's most iconic sites is Barter Books, a renowned second-hand book shop housed in a former Victorian railway station. The impressive emporium features cosy open fires in winter, quiet corners with inviting armchairs and a much-loved model railway that winds its way through the bookshelves. The Market Place is the focal point of the town centre, a vibrant hub of activity, especially on market days when stalls sell local produce, crafts and goods. Immerse yourself in local heritage at the Bailiffgate Museum, catch a performance at the Alnwick Playhouse and admire the ornate Alnwick Town Hall, which dates back to the 18th century.
