#celebratewithtrip #unitedkingdom #warwick #staycations We liked Warwick more than we thought we would and really enjoyed a day trip to this town. It has ancient origins and an array of historic buildings, notably from the Medieval, Stuart and Georgian eras. It was a major fortified settlement from the early Middle Ages, the most notable relic of this period being Warwick Castle, a major tourist attraction. We have shared a lot of information about Warwick Castle, just check our previous posts.

#celebratewithtrip #unitedkingdom #castle #warwick Warwick castle is much bigger than we thought and we did spend a whole day at the castle grounds. If you plan a trip, account for at least 6 hours to make the most of your visit. You can walk on the walls, visit the state rooms and the Great Hall, walk in the park and explore the Peacock Gardens. Obviously you will need some time to eat as well. You can bring your own food or just buy something from the Castle grounds.

#celebratewithtrip #unitedkingdom #castle #tripblazers #fallingforfall We did a day trip to Warwick and Warwick Castle but barely got to see the city as the Castle was much bigger than we through and there were a lot of things to do. Most castles in England you can see within a couple of hours, but Warwick Castle takes the whole day and then some to explore, so it's a fantastic day out and well worth the money! There's so much to do you will be spoiled for choice.

#celebratewithtrip #unitedkingdom #castle #fallingforfall #tripblazers The views from Warwick Castle are stunning, especially on an autumn day. We enjoyed a day out and spent most of the day admiring the Castle grounds and wandering around. A great day trip from London and we will be certainly visiting this place again. If you have been there, what did you like the most? Let us know in the comments.

Today I went to a less popular Theme Park Princesses who like castles or princes who are knights will be happy to visit There are also many decorative paintings of furniture from ancient courts to visit The scenery is quite very comfortable There is a Peacock Garden where you will see some peacocks walking around and asking you for food like some ducklings, which is very funny There is Christmas Castle coming up. Christmas is very atmospheric #Good place for parents and children #OverseasTravel

Warwick Castle, located in Warwickshire, England, is said to have been built in 1068, which means it has a history of more than a hundred years. It has been rebuilt and expanded many times and is now relatively intact. It is also the filming location for Harry Potter. The castle looks small on the outside, but it actually covers a very large area and has different areas such as the Peacock Garden, the Museum and some ancient war performances. The performances are well worth watching. There is also a hotel in the castle that provides accommodation. The price is about over a thousand Hong Kong dollars. The rooms are decorated in an antique style. You can stay there if you have free time. Also, pay attention to the castle's opening hours when planning your trip. It is recommended to visit in the morning as there will be fewer and fewer visitors in the afternoon, which may feel a bit scary. Rating: 8/10 #castle #free show #garden #museum

When the princess comes to the UK, of course she has to visit the castle🏰, this time we are visiting the Warwick castle🤭 Think just walking around the castle is boring? It's not! There is always a playground near you in the UK😂 Zog Playland just opened in early April. Although we have not read this book, the playground facilities are brightly colored and combine sensory and physical facilities to give children the feeling of being in the storyline. In addition to this playground, there is also a Zog and the quest for the golden star trail, where children can pick up a card at the entrance to complete different missions at different checkpoints. There is also a Horrible Histories Maze in the castle, which uses interactive installations to allow visitors to learn about wartime history. However, the maze was big and complex at the Paradise Hotel, and it was a bit difficult to get out🥲 One came, of course, to walk up the castle towers to see the panoramic view outside the city walls. It turns out that the roundabout staircase in the tower is really narrow and high. How did the soldiers in the past walk up the tower at a critical moment? The walk was endless, once we reached the exit of Guy's Tower, it was already very high😱 If you are afraid of heights, you can visit the other side of the Princess Tower, which distributes Princess tickets in time. The castle hides the little details of the Disney princess. The day of the Warwick Castle tour was clear, the castle's back garden has peacocks 🦚 freely walking around, large grass for you to roll 😆 I have to mention The Falconer's Quest this performance, there are 60 castle-related birds together to perform, the performance throughout the audience, sometimes over everyone's heads, very shocking! Warm reminder 💗 This is also under the banner of Merlin Pass. If you have an annual pass, remember to make an appointment online in advance. Relative to other adventure parks, the in-park consumption is higher here, maybe the castle produce is different?

When mentioning the Cotswolds, the first towns that likely come to mind are Bourton-on-the-Water and then Bibury. Since many tours and some self-guided routes often connect Shakespeare’s hometown Stratford-upon-Avon with Oxford, visiting these two places is more convenient, especially as Bourton-on-the-Water is already well known. As for Broadway and Chipping Campden, located on the northwest and northern edges of the Cotswolds Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and without rail connections, they are naturally harder to reach. However, the “relatively off-the-beaten-path” nature of Broadway and Chipping Campden means we don’t have to struggle with crowds, and the rural towns offer a purer countryside charm. 1. Travel highlights Chipping Campden has a market dating back to the early 17th century, built with the honey-colored stone typical of the Cotswolds. The roofs are supported by wooden herringbone beams rather than the arched wooden beams common in large-span European buildings. The high street in Chipping Campden retains medieval-style architecture, reportedly little changed since the 14th century. However, the street itself is still paved with asphalt. The town hall in Chipping Campden, located next to the market, is very small but charming. Opposite the town hall is a library, and nearby are free public restrooms, making it very visitor-friendly. To visit the town’s church, you need to leave the high street and go along Church Street. The church, named St. James, also has a honey-colored exterior and a rather simple interior. It is well lit, creating a bright and airy atmosphere. Nearby are a barn museum and a very “Cotswolds” thatched cottage. Broadway’s main sights are still along the high street. Unlike some Cotswolds towns, Broadway’s high street is wider, lined on both sides with horse chestnut trees decorated with red flower towers, while the honey-colored buildings are partially hidden by the street trees. If you visit in early May, you can experience the dreamy atmosphere created by wisteria in Broadway. The honey-colored cottages, draped with strong vines and hanging purple flower clusters like grapes, seem to lose their doors and windows, becoming fairy dwellings. Of course, Chipping Campden also has some wisteria. Broadway Tower is located on the outskirts of town and requires a hike uphill or a drive along a fairly long mountain road. The walking route passes many pastures where you can warmly greet the sheep “sampling” or enjoying a feast. 2. Transportation Driving may be the more suitable option, but taking the bus is also possible. From or to Stratford-upon-Avon, you can take Stagecoach buses running between Stratford-upon-Avon and Chipping Campden and Broadway. You can download the bus company’s app in advance and choose a “Day Rider” or similar one-day ticket. Although it is pricey, it allows unlimited rides. In theory, the day ticket is valid until 4 AM the next day, but in practice, once the last bus of the day has run, there is little chance to use the ticket further. The Cotswolds span the counties of Gloucestershire, Somerset, Worcestershire, Warwickshire, and Oxfordshire, covering a large area that is difficult to explore all at once. Therefore, it’s important to choose Cotswolds towns that suit your interests and itinerary. Chipping Campden and Broadway are relatively close to Stratford-upon-Avon and can be visited together. Also, the swans in Stratford are quite interesting. When fed, they compete aggressively; if they see someone standing by the water, they swim over gracefully to beg; if no one feeds them, they leave sulkily. Of course, it is recommended not to feed wild animals while traveling abroad. In Stratford-upon-Avon, you can also look for the rare gold postbox and admire the great writer and the characters he created.

Oliver was very knowledgeable, humorous, and enthusiastic all day long, while Mario ensured the entire trip was smooth and stress-free.

Warwick A Lovely, Peaceful Escape Just Outside Birmingham. I visited Warwick last weekend and it’s one of those towns that immediately slows you down. Just an hour by train from Birmingham Moor Street, Warwick feels like a different world - all cobbled streets, timber-framed buildings, and green space everywhere. The best thing about Warwick is how peaceful it is. The town centre is small and easy to walk, with no rush or noise you get in the bigger cities. I spent my first morning drifting along the River Avon path. Ducks on the water, willow trees hanging over the bank, and St Nicholas Park right there if you want to sit with a coffee. It’s the kind of place where you end up taking photos without trying. Of course, Warwick Castle dominates the skyline, but even when you’re not inside, the castle walls give the whole town a calm, historic feel. Early mornings are especially quiet - you can walk past the East Gate before the crowds arrive and just hear your footsteps on the stone. I was there for a racecourse event, and that added a lively contrast to the town’s usual calm. The racecourse itself is only a 15-minute walk from town, set in open fields with big skies. The atmosphere on raceday was buzzy, but as soon as you walk back into town afterwards, Warwick goes quiet again. Pubs with garden seating, independent bookshops, and tearooms make it easy to wind down. It’s clean, safe, and very welcoming. No traffic stress, no crowds pushing you along. If you want history without the chaos, riverside walks without leaving town, and an overall “slow weekend” feeling, Warwick is perfect. I’ll be back - next time just for the peace and the riverside. #travel #thingstodo #warwick

Went to Warwick last weekend for a racecourse event and it was a great atmosphere. #international_student #travel2026 #warwick

Our long awaited stay, and it was brilliant! We spent the weekend in the lodge under trees, watching the knights combat, playing on the park, trying our hand at archery and spending quality time together as a family 🥰 We’ll share lots more details over the next week about cost, experiences, what’s included etc. so watch out for those 👀 Have you ever stayed at @warwickcastleofficial ?? #warwickcastle #knightsvillage #warwickcastleknightsvillage #merlinannualpass #kidsdayout

Warwickshire

We purchased a combination ticket via my Taste Card for just £36, which included this location, the Sea Life Centre in Birmingham, and Warwick Castle. I had visited this place years ago with my kids and felt there wasn’t much to do back then, but this visit completely changed my perspective—I can’t wait to bring my grandkids! My husband and I went on a Friday morning, just after 10 AM, which seemed ideal, especially as it wasn’t during school holidays. The experience was fantastic, from the engaging retelling of history to fun activities like tempering chocolate and, of course, chocolate tasting. We enjoyed checking out the old advertisements, the 4D cinema experience, and the entertaining new cocoa bean ride. It was a really enjoyable way to spend a couple of hours.

Замок Уорик (Warwick Castle) — один из самых впечатляющих средневековых замков Англии, расположенный в городе Уорик на берегу реки Эйвон. С первого взгляда он выглядит именно так, как многие представляют себе классический рыцарский замок: огромные стены, башни, ворота и мощная крепость на холме. Здесь почти нет ощущения «музея» — наоборот, кажется, будто замок всё ещё живёт своей средневековой жизнью. Warwick Castle особенно впечатляет тем, насколько хорошо здесь сохранена атмосфера эпохи рыцарей, королей и осад. ✨ Что особенно впечатляет: 🏰 массивные башни и крепостные стены 🛡 средневековые залы и оружие 🏹 реконструкции рыцарской эпохи и шоу 🌿 красивые виды на реку и окрестности 📸 ощущение настоящего средневекового замка Самый сильный момент — подняться на крепостные стены и посмотреть сверху на город и реку. В этот момент особенно легко представить, как замок когда-то защищал территорию много веков назад. Особенно атмосферно здесь во время исторических представлений, когда по территории ходят люди в костюмах, а замок начинает выглядеть почти как декорация к фильму. 💡 Полезная информация: · 📍 находится в городе Warwick, Англия · 🚆 удобно добираться поездом из Лондона или Бирмингема · 🎟 вход платный · ⏳ на посещение лучше выделить минимум полдня · 🏹 летом часто проходят шоу и реконструкции · 📷 лучшие фото — с внешней стороны замка и башен Интересно: Warwick Castle был построен ещё Вильгельмом Завоевателем после нормандского завоевания Англии в XI веке. И главный итог этого места — Warwick Castle даёт редкое ощущение полного погружения в средневековую Англию, где история кажется не далёким прошлым, а чем-то почти настоящим.
