Warwick and Stratford upon Avon both host music festivals and Stratford upon Avon is the home of the Royal Shakespeare Theatre.
Commuting is easy, with regular trains from Warwick Station, which is 10 minutes walk and from Warwick Parkway and Leamington Spa to London Marylebone. The motorway network is easily accessible with Junction 15 of the M40 2.5 miles to the south of the town giving access to Birmingham and the north and London and the south. Racing is at Warwick, Stratford upon Avon and The Warwickshire Golf Course is in nearby Leek Wootton.

HISTORICAL NOTE:

Legend has it that the first fortifications of significance at Warwick Castle were erected by Ethel Leda, daughter of King Alfred Great, in the year 914. These almost certainly replaced an even older wooden fortification. After the Norman conquest of England in the 11th Century, William the Conqueror appointed Henry de Newburgh as Earl of Warwick. He proceeded to create a Norman motte-and-bailey castle on the site. After the death of the Earl, the Castle passed to the Beauchamp family who, over the next 180 years, were largely responsible for most of the fortifications that can be seen today. During this time, Mill Street remained the principal road to the Castle and fortunately escaped the great fire of Warwick in 1695 which erased the majority of the town's heritage. Today, Mill Street remains delightfully preserved as one of the finest residential locations in Warwick.
