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.

Jammed with bumper-to-bumper traffic on a Monday afternoon—no fun. Next time, I'd come during off-peak hours.

Today popular with locals and visitors: Here you will find a huge shady picnic area right by the river, next to the bridge

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

Avoid on your summer bike, potholes, mud, gravel. Other road round here are pristine, not this one.

This is an easier section to ride on, prior to reaching this point the surfaces are double rocky tracks, some surfaces are between gravel and rocky type surfaces, but it is hilly and good variation exists

Heading west you start to see the scale of the hills climbs ahead. There are some good viewing points in this area, where you can see in many directions. The scenery is very nice on a good weathers day

Heading west out of Glanton on Turnpike Road. Climbing slightly heading towards the Cheviot Hills. Good views, friendly people sitting outside at the pub wanting to talk as getting ready to go on the bike.
