Coach Day Trips to Alnwick

Alnwick is a handsome Northumberland market town with a castle, a walled garden and one of the best-known second-hand bookshops in the country — and it is a short run from our Northumberland pickup points.

What to see in Alnwick

The town is built around a cobbled market place with independent shops, bakeries and tea rooms within a few minutes' walk. Alnwick Castle and The Alnwick Garden sit on the edge of the centre, and Barter Books occupies the old railway station. Because everything is close together, Alnwick suits a relaxed pace — a look round the town, a sit-down lunch and one attraction if you fancy it.

Alnwick and Heighley Gate

Our Alnwick departures are usually paired with Heighley Gate Garden Centre near Morpeth, so you get two stops in one day: time at the garden centre and its food hall, then on to Alnwick. It is a popular combination with passengers who want a gentle day out rather than a long drive.

Local pickups for Alnwick trips

Our Alnwick departures are paired with Heighley Gate Garden Centre near Morpeth and are a same-day return. Passengers join at the usual Northumberland stops — Morpeth, Ashington, Bedlington, Blyth and Cramlington — and in Newcastle city centre. Your confirmation email shows your exact stop and time.
