Lots of space for kids to play, informative & fascinating Kingsmaker exhibition. Food & drink expensive though, so maybe bring a picnic. Otherwise we had a lovely time there.

Excellent castle full of great history and lots of space. Great shows, informative staff. Audioguide - separate cost - was well worth purchasing as it gave us additional details on the rooms we were going around.

My first time visiting Warwick Castle yesterday. I didn't realise how much was here. And how historic this place is. Fantastic sightseeing, history, attractions and shows. Really takes you back in time when you explore and listen. Staff were super friendly and supportive. Any questions I or my friends had were answered brilliantly and even shown us around. Felt very looked after. Will be visiting again soon! Thank you. If you like hiking and exploring whilst being in a safe environment, this place has it.

I visited Warwick Castle today with my boyfriend for a few hours while we were passing through the area. The castle is amazing. We didn't have time to see everything, but we visited the Great Hall, went up to the tower viewing area, and watched Falconer's Quest. It was only a quick visit, and tickets were £24 per person. We were heading elsewhere and decided to stop by, but even though we only explored a few areas and watched the bird show, I felt it was well worth the money. If we'd arrived earlier, there would have been even more to see and do. Parking was £7.50, which included the shuttle bus to and from the car park. The staff were friendly. Two Cokes cost £5, which is a bit expensive, but that's fairly typical for attractions like this. I liked how the tower viewing area explained some of Warwick Castle's history. Overall, I really enjoyed the visit. The birds in the Falconer's Quest show were fantastic, especially the one called "Hobbie"!

Wonderful castle, with lots of activities for adults and children on site, including a play area, multiple eating places, and lots of things to explore. Bonus - splendid peacocks everywhere you go. Great day spent with the family, we'll definitely come back!
