We went early May, after the cherry blossom had finished and before the main flower areas were in bloom bush it was still a wonderful visit. The staff were extremely helpful and knowledgeable and the whole are was immaculately kept. The poison garden was a must and did not disappoint as did the fountain area. The main water cascade was magical. All in all a wonderful place and my only criticism would be that there could be more seats around the central grass area and the cascade for the older ones.

Stunning gardens whenever you visit. Blossom trees filled the area with hues of pink and even the fading daffodils gave a great idea of how they must have looked in their glory. The water features were stunning and the ones in the “maze” were simply fascinating. Lovely to stroll around and enjoy and then visit the cafe for a coffee and the shop for a souvenir

Came here about 5 years ago. The fountains are amazing, and the walks and views lovely, but felt that the wider garden areas were shabby and unkept, particularly disappointed in the walled garden. Reception staff member very abrupt and could do with some customer care training. The cafe was shabby, staff poorly trained and had to have paper cups, as no clean cups available. Choice of food was poor and loads of dirty crockery everywhere. Felt like it was not as good as it was a few years ago.

This was our first visit to Alnwick gardens and it cost £34 for the two of us. Thought it a little expensive, shop area and food was okay, gardens themselves was fun and easy to get around and plenty of space to wander and take photos. Poison garden was interesting, Overall Good day out but overpriced, would like to visit to watch the seasons change but we live too far away.

Went to Alnwick gardens as we live close & my wife wanted to see the cherry blossoms. Its the first time i have been & i was blown away, what an amazing place! We cant wait to go back, the blossom orchard was beautiful and you can sit underneath on swing seats for hours if you wish, the rest of the gardens are beautiful and well maintained the water features are so pretty & the poison garden is very interesting i never knew there were so many dangerous plants! The staff are also very helpful and friendly i really cannot fault the Alnwick garden at all its such a beautiful and peaceful day out

Another beautiful day in the gardens, which are beginning to come to life with fabulous tree peonys, iris & wisteria. The poison garden tour is always interesting & seems to change each time - you are given an insight into different plants & their dangers. And, of course, there is the Grand Cascade, where kids love dodging the water jets, plus all the other water installations in the garden.

We used the gardens 241 voucher so for 2 adults and 2 children (free entry) we paid £17 which was reasonable. We also paid £17 to do the golf. We all enjoyed the gardens. Particularly the poisonous garden, the cherry orchard and the water fountains. It’s helped that the sun was shining

Everything here is on a grand scale. The poison garden gets attention, and it is quite interesting. But the brushed steel water sculptures are breathtakingly lovely and the cascade of fountains magnificent. Planting in the area above the main fountains is fabulous. Also loved the orchard of cherry trees (still in blossom when we went) and the two/three person swings everywhere in it. Spent hours here.

Wonderful gardens to stroll through. The Cascade with its Jets was stunning to watch. We enjoyed the Walled Garden. The swings a lovely feature in the Cherry Blossom Orchard. A good 2 hrs spent here and it could have been longer

Beautiful gardens & water features. Was worth waiting for a tour of Poison Garden as guide very knowledgeable. Afternoon tea lovely, staff friendly & efficient. Car park attendant bit miserable but it was a very hot day - hope he found some shade!
