Alnwick tourist information
Alnwick is fast becoming one of the country's top tourist destinations, and when you visit you'll soon discover why. With such a wide range of accommodation to choose from, there's always a good time to stay in the market town of Alnwick.
The town is home to the magnificent Alnwick Castle and the inspired Alnwick Garden. It also has one of the largest second hand bookshops in the UK - Barter Books which is housed in the town's old railway station, and the House of Hardy, makers of fishing tackle since 1842 and now a fishing shop and museum. Why not stay in an Alnwick bed and breakfast and you'll always be in the heart of the action.
Alnwick originally prospered as a medieval market town, and it still retains many of its cobbled streets, narrow alleys and fine stone buildings which now house a range of specialist shops, family businesses, accommodation and some of the original coaching inns. Book your holiday for a week or two in an Alnwick cottage to ensure you have enough time to discover what this historic town has to offer.
Alnwick pubs and shops
The town also has a lively night life with its own 'Alnwick Playhouse' theatre and pubs which often host live music. During your stay in Alnwick be sure to take a walk to the Bailiffgate Museum, where the people and places of North Northumberland are brought to life by exciting interactive exhibits.
The castle dominates Alnwick and is well worth a visit. It has been home to the Percy family for seven centuries and boasts spacious grounds designed by Capability Brown, beautiful state rooms with Italian renaissance design, and paintings by Canaletto, Van Dyck and Titian. Book your break in an Alnwick hotel to enjoy culture and luxury during your stay.
Nearby lies The Alnwick Garden, the most exciting contemporary garden on earth which features one of the world's largest tree houses and even a poison garden packed full of rare and dangerous plants. There's also Hulne Park, a stunning walled park that contains the ruins of the former Alnwick Abbey.
