Travel to Warwickshire

Located in the center of England, Warwickshire is like the beating heart of the country. It’s been the place of many important historical events and the birthplace of many notable Englishmen, perhaps the most famous one being William Shakespeare, the notorious and influential writer.

During the Industrial Revolution, Warwickshire was one of the most important places in the realm, its forests providing the necessary fuel for the burning furnaces to remain on and driving Britain onward to become the World’s greatest power until the Great Wars.

It’s also a county of great natural beauty and excellent historical tourist attractions. It’s no wonder that during high season Warwickshire hotel rooms are often booked solid – so if you’re planning on paying a visit, book early.

Getting to the county is easy, with several highways and railways leading straight to the county, and even an airport – Coventry Airport – within its borders. However, the best way to experience the whole county is by driving along its side roads, so you can really take in its natural beauty.

The county is also crossed by numerous canals that only add to its natural beauty. Some of them are still fully sailable, making for an interesting and exciting way to spend an afternoon.
