Alnwick Castle is one of Europe's finest. Majestic and imposing, it has a packed daily events programme, fine art treasures, wonderful architecture and children's activities.

'To many people, on their first sight of this glorious medieval castle, it can seem foreboding, and certainly its history lacks nothing in drama and intrigue. Some of you may recognise us as a film location, for everything from Harry Potter to Elizabeth to Becket to Blackadder.'
