Alnwick Castle —
Arrive in style by private helicopter, landing directly in the estate grounds, admiring the impressive Capability Brown designed landscape in front of the castle. Alnwick Castle has been home to the Percy family for over 700 years and remains a family home today for the 12th Duke and Duchess and their four children. You may recognise it from its numerous TV and movie appearances, including Downton Abbey and two Harry Potter films, as the location for Hogwarts. Enjoy an informative tour of the State Rooms admiring the magnificent art collection, as well as family-friendly activities involving costumes, medieval crafts and dragons - not to mention your own private broomstick lesson! Plus don’t miss the small but deadly Poison Garden, filled with around 100 toxic, intoxicating, and narcotic plants.⬩ dreamescapemagazine.com
