Alnwick Castle and Gardens, pt 2

After a rest in the sunshine, might as well make the most of it, and a cuppa and cream tea. We set out to explore the rest of the gardens . Including the bamboo maze.. We did want to visit the Poison Garden but you have to have an escorted tour around these of and we had just missed one so would have had to wait, instead we visited the Lego replica of the gardens instead. It took over 6 weeks to make and cost over £5,000 , and that was just for the Lego bricks.we make our way back to the Motorhome through the café and gift shop watching out for the family of ducks on the way,

We didn't get to see the castle as that was quite a walk away, and an extra entrance fee, or the country's largest tree house, complete with restaurant.

The plan next was to visit the beach at Alnmouth, but there's only one place to park and we decided tha £10 to park for what was essentially a stroll around the village and a look at the beach was too much so we carry on to Craster,

The scenery around here is lovely and the gorse bushes add a lovely spot of colour.Read more
