The village of Hampton Lucy dates as far back as 781 AD. One of the major land marks in the village is St Peters Church, which was rebuilt in 1826 and funded by the Revered John Lucy. Hampton Lucy is well placed for access to both Stratford upon Avon and Warwick, nestling midway between these two superb historic towns, amidst Warwickshire countryside.
The M40 junction 15 is some 4.5 miles distant and Warwick Parkway Station providing trains to Birmingham and London Marylebone is some 7 miles away.
