From the mysterious Poison Garden tours at 
the Alnwick Garden, to the walled gardens at the 
National Trusts Wallington House, Garden and Estates, and the spectacular, tropical quarry garden at English Heritage's 
Belsay Hall and Gardens, there are so many peaceful gardens and 
countryside landscapes to explore. Many of the 
hidden gem gardens in Northumberland make up the grounds of 
historic sites, from 
castles to 
stately homes and old country manors, so you can delve into our 
history while taking in some of the most 
scenic beauty spots.
