Easter in Warwickshire

Day 1

We depart the local area and make our way to Evenley Wood Garden. Set amongst the beautiful Northamptonshire countryside, this 60-acre privately owned woodland garden contains a large and notable collection of plants; ranging from unusual trees and shrubs to a wide selection of lilies and other bulbs. Daffodils make their bright and cheerful appearance throughout the wood. Bluebells follow the scillas, mainly in Bluebell Wood, with pinkbells featuring in The Beeches. We arrive at the 4* Chesford Grange Hotel with time to settle in before dinner.

Day 2

Today we visit the Black Country Living Museum, it is one of the most extraordinary open-air museums in the UK; offering a glimpse into 200 years of history like no other. It tells the story of a very special time and place in history and some of the most hard-working, ingenious and influential people you could imagine. Over fifty authentic shops, houses and workshops have been carefully reconstructed to preserve the character of the region when its manufacturers brought worldwide fame to Black Country Towns.

Day 3

This morning, we visit Warwick, famous for its magnificent castle, superb specialist and independent shops, historic charm and a fantastic range of places to eat & drink. We return to the hotel with time to make use of the many leisure facilities

Day 4

After a leisurely breakfast we depart the hotel and make our way to Boughton House where we can experience 'The English Versailles'. Discover one of Britain's grandest and best-preserved stately homes. As well as the splendours of the House, you can also enjoy the 18th-century landscaped gardens, woodlands and a grand country park. Discover the house at your leisure to take in the many beautiful and ornate rooms. You will also have free-time to explore the grounds at leisure. We then make our way back home, arriving late afternoon.
