Visiting Warwick Castle with the family? Make the most of your trip by staying in a comfortable, fully furnished house in Coventry — just 15 minutes from the castle gates. You will get more space, more comfort, and better value than any hotel in Warwick itself.
Why Families Choose Maine Stays for Warwick Castle Visits
Warwick Castle is one of the UK's top family attractions, but the hotels in Warwick town can be expensive and cramped. Here is why staying with us in Coventry is the better option:
- Whole house for your family — multiple bedrooms, a living room for the kids to play in, and space to spread out
- Full kitchen — make packed lunches for the castle, cook dinner in the evening, and save a fortune on restaurant bills
- Free parking — leave the car at the property or drive straight to the castle (parking is available on site)
- Garden space — let the kids burn off energy when you get back from a big day out
- Far cheaper than Warwick hotels — Warwick B&Bs and hotels charge £100–£180 per room per night
- Multi-day base — stay for a long weekend and explore the wider area
Making the Most of Warwick Castle
Warwick Castle deserves more than a rushed day trip. With over 1,100 years of history, there is plenty to see. The castle offers jousting shows, the Horrible Histories Maze, the castle dungeons, birds of prey displays, trebuchet firings, and stunning grounds to explore. Many families find that two days is ideal — one day for the castle itself, and one for the surrounding area.
