Things To Do in Warwickshire
Experience the best of Warwickshire.
If you’re the adventurous sort, you’ve got the entire county of Warwickshire to explore, not just Stratford-upon-Avon. Here’s just a handful of interesting places to discover…
COMPTON VERNEY HOUSE
20 minute drive
Pay a visit to this stately Georgian manor in the little village of Compton Verney.
Tour the house and take a stroll around the grounds that were relandscaped in 1769 by the famous Capability Brown. While no one has lived in the house since WWII, it’s often used as a filming location and is well exploring.
ROYAL PUMP ROOMS
20 minute drive
Discover the history of Royal Leamington Spa.
The baths were popularised in the Victorian era due to the rediscovery of the saline rich water of the River Leam. Now, the bathhouse is a cultural complex with an art gallery, a library and a swimming pool.
KENILWORTH CASTLE
20 minute drive
Delve into the past of Queen Elizabeth I at Kenilworth Castle.
Once a medieval fortress, Kenilworth Castle was transformed into a royal palace by Robert Dudley, Queen Elizabeth I’s lover. Explore Elizabeth’s private rooms or take a walk around the impressive grounds – there’s lots to see and do.
EDGE HILL
25 minute drive
Take a trip to the site of the first battle in the English Civil War.
Discover the history of Edge Hill, and how the inconclusive battle led to four more years of war. Or just go for the views and check out the stunning Warwickshire countryside from the top of the hill.
