Alnwick Castle

Such fun. Perfect size for a couple hours of investigating. The castle was impeccably maintained and absolutely gorgeous inside and out. The cafe was delicious and well priced with plenty of options. The gardens were also nice and the hot food selections there were great. Good place for kids/families. We had a great time wandering around!

Spent 2-3 hours here (and at the garden). Lots to see and explore. It was not very busy when we went in the end of September. Loved watching the sheep outside the castle walls. PS its pronounced "Annick"!

This castle is in a different league! The rooms are extremely ornate, great portraits, fantastic ceilings and amazing fireplaces. A shame that indoor photography was not allowed. It is lived in. The views outside are wonderful , also great exhibits of armoury and all the paraphernalia that goes with it. A 'must see' for all.

Gorgeous castle! For Harry Potter fans, this is where the famous broomstick flying scene from the first movie was filmed! There are talks and events throughout the day regarding the magical side of the castle as well as more traditional evens like weapons and armor talks, soap making and a fun dragon quest! A place with rich history and enjoyability for all ages! 10/10 highly recommend

We visited with our whole family and had an amazing time! We bought our tickets in advance and came just 2 days before the season ended. The staff were fantastic — even with some power issues, they handled everything smoothly and still made the experience great for everyone. The weather was perfect, the history of the castle is incredible, and the broomstick flying activity was a big hit with the kids! A beautiful place full of charm and stories. Highly recommend visiting Alnwick Castle!

Alnwick Castle is a great landmark. Featured in many films, most notably Harry Potter, it’s a must see if passing by the area. The village is really pretty, with lots of small local businesses.

This castle shoukd have 10 stars... what a fantastic place. There are a number of guided tours that tell different things about the history of the castle... to films that we made there. But the inside... well its like a palace! Would definitely recommend going here without a shadow of doubt.

Amazing experience at Alnwick Castle! We had such a fantastic day here! The castle is beautiful and full of history it’s been home to the Percy family for centuries and feels like something straight out of a storybook. The grounds are stunning, and the staff were all super friendly and welcoming. The absolute highlight for us was the broomstick flying lesson it felt like stepping right into the Harry Potter movies! It’s so cool knowing that scenes from Hogwarts were actually filmed here. We laughed so much and learned a few “magic tricks” along the way. Definitely one of the most fun and memorable places we’ve visited in England. A perfect mix of history, movie magic, and great vibes!
