About

Alnwick Garden is a sprawling 42‑acre oasis that blends formal Georgian landscaping with bold contemporary design. Located just outside Alnwick Castle, the gardens showcase an array of themed gardens including the world‑famous Poison Garden, a daring collection of toxic plants that doubles as an educational exhibit. In the heart of the grounds a 12‑metre Cascade Fountain serves as a dramatic visual hub, flanked by a modern treehouse cafe, a visitor centre, and an artistically engineered glass‑vaulted pavilion. Whether wandering under the canopy of a historic orchard, strolling along a winding lake, or exploring the entry of the Poison Garden, visitors are invited to experience a unique fusion of horticultural heritage and imaginative innovation.
