Newcastle → Alnwick: key facts

Getting from Newcastle Airport (NCL) to Alnwick takes about 1h by car on an empty road (60–80 min in heavy traffic) over 60 km via A1. Our private transfer costs €150 for a car with 1–3 passengers or €210 for a van with 4–8 — the vehicle price you see is the price you pay at booking.

On arrival: The driver waits in the arrivals hall of the Newcastle Airport terminal, after baggage reclaim and the customs exit, with a sign showing your name. If the flight is late, the driver adjusts to the real landing time; 60 minutes of waiting are included and help with the luggage is part of the service.

Alnwick is a market town in Northumberland, north of Newcastle, known for Alnwick Castle (used in film) and the Alnwick Garden. The drive from the airport heads north through rural Northumberland, a straightforward route through farmland. The town centre is compact with a market place and narrow streets, so the driver stops at the nearest permitted road. The nearest mainline station is at Alnmouth, a few miles from the town, so most visitors arrive by road.

The centre of Alnwick is a market place, Bondgate Within with its gate, and the main shopping streets running towards the castle gates. Alnwick Castle sits on the north side of the River Aln, and the Alnwick Garden is a short walk from the town centre. Barter Books, a large second-hand bookshop in the old station, is nearby. Hotels are in the town centre. The summer season and school holidays are busiest.

Public transport: No direct public service was. The usual route is the Metro to Newcastle and then a bus north to Alnwick.
