The main reason why we picked the location for our half term break was its close proximity to Warwick Castle. In my opinion it is definitely one of the best castles in England especially for children. It transports you back in time with all the actors and activities that are continuously on the go. We watched the birds of prey display, saw the trebuchet in action, learnt about the ghostly past of the castle, enjoyed an interactive show in the witches tower, watched a fencing duel, saw a headless horseman - the list of exciting things is endless - you really need an entire day there to make the most of it. Since it was almost Halloween we also went on a Spooky Trail in one of the many gardens - it was so well done - the boys were intrigued and terrified at the same time.
