About this property
Resting centrally in the Northumberland market town of Alnwick, just paces away from a host of amenities and attractions is The Wizard's Loft, a three-bedroom, duplex apartment. Located over the second and third floors, enjoying views of the bustling town, The Wizard's Loft is a haven for Harry Potter fans, adorned with magical accessories and recognisable colour pallets, whilst well-equipped for a self-catered break.

Travel on foot and ascend the internal stairs, reaching the second floor, and be welcomed by a feature wall and tourist information right in the hallway. Enter through the hallway to the spacious living/dining room of the apartment, complete with dining for six, plush sofas, and a Smart TV for entertainment, before heading into the fully equipped, sleek kitchen, offering the perfect space to rustle up tasty meals. As the night unfolds, select between three well-appointed Harry Potter inspired bedrooms, all complete with Smart TVs and storage, including a double, a super-king-size (zip/link), and on the third floor a king-size (zip/link), with space to unwind and enjoy views over the Town. The apartment is complete with two contemporary shower rooms, one on each floor, where you can refresh and prepare for your coming days. Just paces away you'll locate several supermarkets and convenience stores, along with a host of eateries to take advantage of, including Adam and Eve, Lilburns Bar Restaurant, and Caffe Tirreno, before kickstarting your itinerary of local attractions.

The Duke of Northumberland's residence, Alnwick Castle, dominates the charming and ancient market town of Alnwick. The Castle Gardens, which were first made available to the public in 2002, contain Europe's biggest cascading water feature, an amazing (and massive) treehouse, a charming rose garden, and a stunning, walled ornamental garden that will please both amateur and professional gardeners. The castle is well-known for serving as the backdrop for Hogwarts School in the Harry Potter movies. While the London to Edinburgh stage coach once travelled through the town, the small lanes have hardly changed, and the Market Place, with its stone cross, continues to be the focal point and the ideal location for the weekly Saturday market.
