Overview

Wizards, warriors, and a wee bit of seaside mischief - this small-group adventure’s got it all! We’re heading south to the Anglo-Scottish border, where blood-soaked battlefields tell tales of centuries-old clashes. Then, it’s off to the jaw-droppingly gorgeous seaside village of Bamburgh. Fancy a wild run along the beach? Go for it! Want to explore the mighty Bamburgh Castle, standing proud since the 5th century? Even better. But let’s be honest, you’re really here for Hogwarts, aren’t you? That’s right, we’re off to Alnwick Castle, where Harry Potter took his first broomstick flight! Soak up its spellbinding history, pose like a wizard, and channel your inner Gryffindor (or Slytherin, we don’t judge). And if you’re more into period drama than magic wands, you’ll be chuffed to know this grand fortress also starred in Downton Abbey. Epic battles, coastal beauty, and a dash of movie magic, aye, this one’s a belter!

Alnwick castle has lots of different shows that go on all day. Enjoyed seeing the different hunting birds in action and where they were used. Tour guide has plenty of stories and easy to hear. We bought tickets to Alnwick castle on arrival, which was easy.
