Faerie Tale Farm

Highlight • Rest Area

Faerie Tale Farm is a family-owned business dedicated to breeding alpacas (a type of llama originating from the Andes) since 2008. There's an opportunity to pay a visit, and undoubtedly, it's an ideal plan for families.

Goodrest Anti-Aircraft Battery

Highlight • Monument

The Goodrest Anti-Aircraft Battery was built after the Coventry Blitz on 14th November 1940. It was the last of the ring of defences for Coventry, housing soldiers and Auxiliary Territorial Service women. Later in the war, it became a prisoner of war camp for Italian prisoners and later Germans. Whilst the battery is situated on private farmland, you get a good view of it from the footpath.

Kenilworth Castle Ruins

Highlight • Castle

Kenilworth Castle was constructed from Norman through to Tudor times. It has been described by architectural historian Anthony Emery as "the finest surviving example of a semi-royal palace of the later middle ages". The castle has also played an important role in English history. It was the subject of the six-month-long Siege of Kenilworth in 1266, the longest siege in Medieval English history, and formed a base for Lancastrian operations in the Wars of the Roses. Kenilworth was also the scene of the removal of Edward II from the throne, the French insult to Henry V in 1414 (said by John Strecche to have encouraged the Agincourt campaign), and the Earl of Leicester's lavish reception of Elizabeth I in 1575.
