Denwickのおすすめライド

Fine bit of stonework

Swift drop down narrow lane towards the A1. Can cross directly and get on some quiet roads towards Edlingham

Built in the 14th Century on an outcrop of the Whin Sill, an atmospheric ruin.

If you pass the Arch, pop into the Arch Cafe !

Absolutely stunning! Alnwick Castle is one of those rare places that feels both grand and welcoming. The architecture is jaw-dropping, and the setting over the River Aln is gorgeous. The staff are friendly, and the guided tours add a lot of colour to the history — from medieval battles, to its military museum, to its modern fame as “Hogwarts” in the Harry Potter films. The state rooms are also beautifully preserved and reek of state level opulence. It can get busy and the tickets aren’t cheap, we paid £19 for being in the 60+ dementia category, down from £22 for normal adults, but it’s worth every penny for the experience. Don’t skip a walk through the nearby gardens (closed for us today because of winds)or a look over the castle walls — the views of Alnwick town are fantastic.

This is now called the Arch Cafe. Different opening hours to the previous post and it is open Sundays. Food is great, good selection, service excellent. Indoor and outdoor seating. Also has a little gift shop. Recommended

Craster Tower Gateway is an 18th century gateway and iconic entrance to the village of Craster. The gateway once belonged to Craster Tower, which now serves as a luxury apartment.

Good spot to refill water bottles if you’re running low.
