Most of the village is owned by the National Trust (Image: davelogan/Getty Images)Īt the end of Church Street Harry Potter fans will find a quaint house that they might just recognise. Windowsills prop up jars of homemade goodies and local crafts being sold by locals. Outside of the Abbey sits a quiet village lined with timber-framed houses and independent shops. In addition to its Harry Potter appeal, the Abbey houses a museum and there are some gorgeous landscapes including a rose garden and woodland path on the grounds. They can also walk around The Sacristy in the Abbey which was used as Snape's potions classroom in first film. They can step into Professor Quirrell's Defence Against The Dark Arts classroom (AKA the Warming Room) and see a great big cauldron that was there long before the film. Visitors can enter the Abbey for £12 (child tickets are £6) and take as many Harry Potter-inspired pictures as they like. The Abbey's cloisters are also immediately recognisable as Hogwarts corridors in the first film. Remember the heart-wrenching moment when Harry looks into the mirror of Erised and sees his parents? That was filmed inside the Chapter House room in Lacock Abbey. These hallways are famously a part of Hogwarts (Image: Cathryn Gallacher via Getty Images)
