The Lord Leycester is one of Europe’s most important medieval buildings and has been a home to military veterans for over 450 years. Only 33 miles away from Birmingham city centre you’ll find one of area’s best historic attractions. Take a tour around this historic site and marvel at the beauty of the house and gardens.

Explore the magnificent half-timbered buildings yourself or learn about Warwick’s fascinating history through a Guided Tour from one of their resident ‘Brethren’. Relax in the Tudor gardens and enjoy a traditional afternoon tea at the Great Hall Café.

A visit to Shakespeare’s country isn’t complete without a visit to the Lord Leycester, located in the heart of Warwick and a stone’s throw from Stratford-upon-Avon. Whether you are looking for a day trip or staying in Warwick, Leamington Spa or Kenilworth, they are accessible by coach, car, bus, rail and bike!

We stopped in Warwick just for an afternoon and evening before a wedding further south with the intention of going for a walk around Warwick Castle however at £78 for a couple we decided kn something more reasonable and stumbled upon the Lord Leycester which was perfect for a spot of history. Ideal for a family with young kids as it's not that big, but great for a history lesson. Buildings are stunning and the tour has been very tastefully done

Simply a great experience to see history so well preserved. The buildings show the age of the years yet they have been maintained to be functional. The various elements of daily life and the history are well illustrated. The garden is just the icing on the cake lush with a variety of plants and flowers in a peaceful setting.

Fantastic place to visit with historic significance. Well preserved old building with at least seven centuries of history. Also the cafe inside is wonderful with some very good food. Highly recommend eating there when visiting this establishment, well worth it and the staff of both the house and the cafe are wonderful and very friendly. Very nice church and gardens within the grounds of The Lord Leycester facility. Be sure to visit when in Warwick.
