Stratford-Upon-Avon - Last Visit August 2017
This is a beautiful town to visit, with a very good variety of shops, restaurants and cafes, spread over several streets. There are many old buildings in the town, which reminded me of Chester and is a very nice place to walk around.

In addition to the town, there's also the attraction of the river, where you can either enjoy a boat trip or hire a boat, plus a great green area to sit an enjoy the sun, when it's out. Back in the town centre and we'd recommend you visit the MAD Museum, check out our review, pictures and videos here.

Warwick – August 2015
We decided to park at Barrack Street, which had more spaces than most, but when I looked on the website, it didn't tell me it was a permit only car park Monday - Friday, however luckily it excludes Saturdays and Bank Holidays. On our first visit to Warwick (February 2011) the weather wasn't very good and on our second visit (August 2015) the weather was once again wet, but more importantly Warwick town centre doesn't appear to open on a bank holidays. Thankfully my wife had suggested we stop at the East Midlands Designer Outlet on our way down, so Warwick was our second stop before arriving at Field Barn Park campsite.

_ Kenilworth
We visited in February 2011, there is a nice street of shops, but nothing to excite me, but there is a great massive car park behind the high street and parking at £1 per hour is really good.

_ Leamington Spa
Visiting in February 2011, it was quite a nice place, but very similar to most standard town centres, so I would only think about visiting if we happen to be in the area.
