The attractions of our nearest town of Alnwick have recently led to its acclaim as the ?Best Place to Live in Britain? and the fame of both The Alnwick Garden with its magnificent water feature and forthcoming tree-house complex and castle with its Harry Potter memorabilia grows daily. With more castles than any other county Northumberland is a magnet for those visitors keen to investigate the North's history. The Cook and Barker's nearest castle is of course Alnwick (only 5 miles away) base of the ancient Percy family and nowadays home to the Duke and Duchess of Northumberland.
Visit Alnwick itself County town of Northumberland with a range of historical listed buildings and find time to marvel at the Alnwick Garden - dreamed of and built through the hard work and dedication of the Duchess and now owned by a charitable trust with its formal parterres and elaborate waterfall feature; note too the next phase of development - a tree-house complex that is expected to be the largest in the world!
