Alnwick GardenNewest Review: ... controlling the situation and providing an educational talk as she shepherds the visitors around the garden. Alnwick Garden has a Home Office licence to grow cannabis and coca - and these plants are rather strangely kept in their own cages in the garden. The talk was very informative, as the marshal led us past poisonous plants that grow naturally in Britain and regaled us with gruesome tales ... more |

Alnwick Garden has been highly recommended to me on many occasions, and when we visited Northumberland recently, it was definitely on our list of attractions to visit. Located between the market town of Alnwick and the grounds of Alnwick Castle is the most amazing, creative and inventive garden, designed by the Duchess of Northumberland. Although the first couple of phases are now complete, this is a garden still in the making - and the ideas for the future will make sure that I return again to see the absolutely magical things that are planned come into fruition. ~~History~~ The gardens were always a cherished part of the castle, beloved and ...

The Alnwick Garden in Northumberland is a really lovely place to visit, as I discovered recently when in the area. I had decided to visit on the recommendation of a friend who had recently spent a day there, and had spent quite a while telling me about it afterwards. I was intrigued to find out more and visit here myself, as although I live in the North East and have visited many places in Northumberland, I had never visited The Alnwick Garden. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ HOW TO GET THERE ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The Alnwick Garden is situated just off the A1 at Alnwick in Northumberland, and is well signposted if travelling by car.

I made my second visit to Alnwick Gardens on the 16th January. Unfortunately, I was there for a reception following the funeral of the wonderful man and dear friend who first introduced me to this magical place. He and his wife were staunch supporters of the gardens and enjoyed their beauty regularly with their children and gorgeous grandchildren. At the risk of making a simple review a little on the emotional side, I write this review in honour of one of the kindest, most sincere gentlemen I have ever had the privilege to know and I thank him for sharing this spectacular place with my son and I. Admission Fee: Adults, £8, Concession £7.50. ... Read the complete review
