‘Harry Potter’ Day Trip to ‘Hogwarts’

Alnwick & Seahouses – Saturday 11th May

£45 per student**

TICKETS ARE NOW SOLD OUT

A fantastic day out – starting at the wonderful Alnwick Castle (one of the filming locations for Hogwarts) where you can take part in broomstick training, as well as exploring the centuries of non-Hogwarts related history. You should also take some time to explore the town of Alnwick itself… particularly Barter Books! Following this will be some time taking in the beautiful Northumberland coast at Seahouses.

Alnwick is a long way, so we will be leaving very early – but you can snooze on the coach and be wide awake by the time we arrive.
