The Alnwick Garden is a complex of formal gardens adjacent to Alnwick Castle in the town of Alnwick, Northumberland, England.
The Garden was designed for every season – from fragrant roses to mirror-polished water features, no matter when you visit, there is always something to admire.
At The Alnwick Garden we want all our visitors to enjoy their time with us. For the safety of all our guests, only assistance dogs are allowed into The Garden. We also strongly advise that you do not bring your pet on hot days as we cannot guarantee parking will be available in suitable shaded areas. ‘Happy Hounds’, located in close proximity to The Garden, offer a day care boarding service to Garden visitors for a small fee, booking is essential: 01665 572425
The Alnwick Garden was designed to be as accessible as possible for wheelchair users and can be traversed using smooth solid surfaces - even the ropebridges of the Treehouse are fully accessible.
Visitors with a disability are entitled to concession prices and free access for a carer if needed.
Childrens' Activities
We welcome children of all abilities to join in A Garden of Fairy Tales and craft activities, and necessary help or modification will be provided to ensure they are fully included.
Car parking
A free car park for Blue Badge-holders is available at The Garden just off Denwick Lane. It is advised that disabled visitors to Alnwick Castle also use this car park and enter the Castle via the pathway through Bowburn Park (the picnic area between the Castle and The Garden).
Mobility scooter and manual wheelchair hire
Free wheelchair or mobility scooter hire is available but please book in advance by calling 01665 511350. Accessible route maps are also available from admissions.
