Alnwick's attractive and historic market town is dominated by Alnwick Castle, which is home to the Duke of Northumberland. The Castle Gardens, which opened in 2002, feature Europe's largest cascading water feature, a fantastic (and enormous) treehouse, a delightful rose garden, and a beautiful, walled ornamental garden that will delight both novice and experienced gardeners. The castle is also famous as the setting for Hogwarts School featured in the Harry Potter films!
