Alnwick Castle (about 25 minutes away) is still home to the Duke of Northumberland’s family, one of the largest inhabited castles in Europe, set in dramatic parkland and the setting for some of the Hogwarts scenes in the first two Harry Potter movies. The Alnwick Gardens (part of the castle estate) are an attraction in itself.
