Beautiful Warwick Castle architecture

Warwick Castle Gardens and playground

Surrounding the castle are 64 acres of parkland landscaped by “England’s greatest gardener”, Capability Brown. Wander along the serene banks of the River Avon, visit the fragrant Victorian rose garden and say hello to the stunning peacocks who are free to roam the castle grounds!

In the summer, you’ll find daily jousting tournaments and bird of prey displays in the gardens – check the schedule when you arrive at the castle. And for kids, there is a large playground to explore and conquer – designed as a mini fortress and perfect for little ones to explore.
