What To Do When You Stay
In Warwick by Frederick Hoymer
Warwick
Featured Hotels
Dating back to the times
before the Domesday Book, the historic city of Warwick has plenty to offer
its visitors. It is the county town of Warwickshire and lends its name
to this English county.
The most famous building
associated with the city is Warwick Castle, which has been on its current
site since 1068, making it almost a thousand years old (Warwick itself
is older and can be traced back to at least 914 AD). The castle is a major
tourist attraction in the UK and visitors from all over the globe to visit
this magnificent building. Those who are brave enough can fire a trebuchet
- a kind of catapult that can send 30 pound stone balls over impressive
distances. If your children get tired of the buildings, there are also
amusement rides for them. Older visitors can take advantage of the regular
paranormal events that are held at the castle - who knows, you may even
encounter a ghost on your visit.
Whether your hotel is in
the centre of Warwick or the outskirts, you won't be far from the shopping. |

Many of Warwick's shops and
restaurants are still locally owned and run, so you will be able to experience
some of England's cultural diversity when you visit.
A number of different festivals
are hosted in the city. These range from classical and contemporary music
through to a folk music festival and a Victorian Evening, held late in
the year, where you can step back in time.
