Where you can immerse yourself in a thousand years of jaw-dropping history – come rain or shine.Where ancient myths and spell-binding tales set your imagination alight, and your hair on end. Where princesses are pampered and maidens are wooed, as winners become true heroes and losers are confined to dark, dank dungeons to be forgotten for eternity. It could only be Warwick Castle. « less

You can see that Tussaud has had a finger in the creation of this attraction and the overall design is Disney-like. This is very much an attraction for all the family with creepy and exciting things for children, exhibitions with life-like dolls for grown-ups and special attractions such as 'Flight of the birds' and 'Firing of medieval siege machines' for...

Four early retired friends had a fabulous day out and there was far too much to see and do in one day. Will have return.

We took our grand-daughter to Warwick castle last week-end for her birthday. Three generations of our family had a really interesting and fun day at this imposing but friendly castle, steeped in centuries of history. The birthday girl was immediately enchanted on seeing the castle and so our first visit was to the Princess Tower. A lovely experience for a... More

I visited the castle over 20 years as a child. When my family came touring with me this time to the UK, Warwick Castle was the first attraction we saw. Much has changed. Our 10 yr old got freaked about by the dungeon show, so that was disappointing not to see that part again. Overall, there are many things to... More

I must admit, I am not a 'castle' sort of person, my Husband is !.....however I really enjoyed this day out, instead of looking at just the castle and its contents we were entertained by the staff. If you do go, a trip to the Dungeons is a MUST it may seem a bit steep to have to pay an... More

excellent day out. All attractions are well laid out and the staff are friendly and helpful. Even staff walking past made the effort to greet us. The dungeon experience was brilliant , very scary but entertaining, although my girlfriend wasn't impressed being branded a witch especially as it happened again in the Merlin Tower! It was a very enjoyable day... More

We had been meaning to go to Warwick Castle for a long time now, and then we got the chance! With all the 'history' that surrounds this Castle and Town', I was, needless to say, 'disappointed' with my visit! More 'theme park' than 'heritage site', very expensive entry, refreshments and extras! We made a 'detour' to see this 'bit of... More

Almost in the heart of Warwick, this castle has more to see than just an old building, they have really tried to make sure there is something for the family with jousting and all sorts of entertainment. Possibly a bit expensive but lots to do so....
