Warwick Castle

Amazing stay at Warwick castle in the peacock suite, our concierge Ellie was very helpful and informative as was her colleague khadija who brought our dinner up to the room! It was a magical package which included afternoon tea and a private history tour with Andrew which was outstanding! Finally after a very luxurious breakfast in the state dining room we had a dungeon tour which again was excellent. We are already planning our next stay at the castle!

The most perfect magical overnight stay ever. We stayed in the rose suite and I simply can’t put into words how beautiful, unique and amazing this experience is. We arrived and we’re directed to our reserved parking space where we were met by our daytime concierge Ellie H who is absolutely fantastic and made us feel like royalty from the off. We arrived early and our suite was already available which we were not expecting and we were given the keys straight away. Inside the room a bottle of champagne was waiting for us, a list of show times and a castle souvenir book which we could take home. Ellie took the time to show us around the suite and how everything worked then left us to it. She is simply fantastic at her job and it was a pleasure to meet her. The room is mind blowing, pictures don’t do it justice and the entry to the battlements is amazing, especially after everyone has left for the day. We spent the day exploring the castle, watched all of the shows (highly recommend the falconers quest) and had a beautiful afternoon tea in the conservatory. The magic really starts though once every one leaves for the day and the castle becomes all yours. We spent ages wandering around like we owned the place taking so many photos that you don’t normally have the opportunity to take with no one else hovering in the background. Our evening concierge Jordan was also an absolute delight and took the time to take some photos for us. Jordan and Elise are both an absolute credit to the castle and nothing was too much trouble for them. We went into Warwick town for a meal and had no issues getting in or out of the castle. Upon our return it was dark and I must admit it is slightly spooky to be alone in the grounds once the sun goes down. The staircase up to the tower suite is eerie at night but as soon as you are in the suite it is so cosy and homely (or how I would imagine homely feels when you live in a castle!). Again the battlements are such a bonus to this suite and it’s only a short flight of stairs to the top of the tower which once the stars come out is just beautiful (creepy dark staircase aside…Take a torch as this flight of stairs isn’t lit at night). The next morning after a wonderful sleep in the huge four poster bed, it was time for breakfast served by the lovely morning concierge Beth in the state dining room. Whilst waiting for the food we could wander around the empty castle and again this is such a wonderful experience before the doors open to the public. Breakfast was fabulous and the choice is huge, there is something for everyone. Our final experience was the private tour of the castle with castle historian Andrew. He was fantastic and so knowledgeable, making the tour so fun and bringing the history to life. As a huge fan of the castle it was amazing to find out about the people who lived there and also to see some areas that you don’t normally get to see. It was a genuine honour to spend time with this perfect gentleman and we lear

An amazing and unforgettable experience. Well planned out by the friendly team. Totally unique having the run of a castle after hours and then watching the sunrise from the top of the tower. The included breakfast and afternoon tea were lovely and being freely able to leave the grounds/return to go to Warwick itself was brilliant.

The castle is amazing, it is a well maintained historical monument with lots of different shows and entertainment. The castle has a beautiful park and a tea house with nice snacks and beverages. The castle hotel offers a variety of rooms on the castle grounds. And the tower suite is a unique place where you are treated like a king or a queen. We enjoyed our stay very much and highly recommend this fantastic experience of a lifetime to couples and families as well.

We arrived on Friday 20th May after a telephone call from our concierge days earlier. We were met at a reserved car parking space and taken to The Peacock Suite - WOW - champagne chilling and our itinerary for our day all prepared. Afternoon tea in the Conservatory and then at 4pm the whole site was ours! We had a superb tour of the formal rooms tailored to our interests. A golf buggy ride down to the Knights village for great food and entertainment. A lovely saunter back through the beautiful grounds and sat with the stunning peacocks with views for miles. A lovely evening in our beautiful suite and slept well. Our concierge met us to take us for breakfast in the formal library (with Winston) which felt very special plus the tour of rooms was just the two of us. A pre booked very scary tour of the Dungeons which was fabulous. And then the highlight of our stay - The Falconers Quest - an amazing display of birds of prey in the parkland. A golden ticket to have 20% of a purchases and a phenomenal welcome from every member of the team we encountered. 20 mins from a lovely walk round Stratford. Just do it - what an experience! Thank you.

I loved every minute of our stay at Warwick. We were in the Peacock suite and it was just stunning. We arrived at lunchtime and were greeted by Ellie who was lovely and gave us our passes and confirmed our timings. We had plenty of time to see the horse show and falcon display before meeting the very knowledgeable Charlie for our private tour. They were brilliant, very engaging and we learned a lot from them. For dinner we walked down to the Knights village for the buffet meal, we were pleased with the variety of food on offer. The knights and princess walking in and making their announcements was fun, and I liked how they helped entertain children in the evenings. Our stay was made more memorable by meeting the ladies staying in the other suite, we all spent ages chatting and showed each other around the suites. We have met again since our stay, never expected to make new friends there so that was a bonus. Day 2 was busy, the private breakfast was overlooked by a young Winston Churchill and we visited the top of the motte afterbreakfast before going on to the Dungeons. The actors were absolutely brilliant, hilarious and suitably creepy. We went to the falconry display for a second time, as it was so good Our final experience was the afternoon tea and oh my word, what a tea, just amazing. We were sad to leave to go home, but I would highly recommend the experience to anyone who is looking for something a bit different.

We stayed 11/02/22. Phoned head and was met at the entrance by concierge, car space reserved at the entrance of the Castle. The concierge lady was very friendly and welcoming. I can’t recall her name ( young from the Wirral). We stopped for her to point out our suite room for a photo. The suite amenities fully explained. You place your breakfast order the night before. Tv pops up at the end of the bed. Given a 20% discount card for the shop, drink and food stalls. We explored the Castle grounds knowing we had a private tour, dungeon tickets and afternoon tea booked for the next day. We decide to eat dinner in the town of Warwick which is only 5 minutes away. The bed was comfy and had a great nights sleep. Next morning concierge texted to say she was waiting at the foot of the tower to escort us to breakfast. Breakfast served promptly, alone in a room in the Castle which when the Castle is open people view. You retain your space in the car park the next day.

Our carriage pulled in just after noon and, as requested, my raven had reached the squire ahead of our arrival, at which point bags were brought forth and the squire dutifully overburdened with a wide array of fine silks and satins from around the globe. To stay our hunger we dined on tea and cakes that were first-rate and reminiscent of the quality fayre proffered up from my own castle pantries. On the lawns we were met with flamboyant peacocks, so resplendent in their plumage as to make even the most stoic of wizards weep for such finery. It was then met a gentleman well learned in lore (Lord Ben, I believe) who was kind enough to escort us throughout the castle, even going so far as to let us handle some of thee artefacts and rarities. It was most informative and of genuine interest. And, after a busy morning, it was time to rest, and so we retired to the Suite in the tower, to the welcome sight of chilled champagne, fine linens, and exquisite furniture. The squire had even been so good as to deliver our travel-goods, much to my relief. A nearby market had vendors selling culinary wares of which I dined greedily, before finishing the evening with a turn around the peaceful, golden-lit grounds, a goblet of mead, and a well-earned shower. In the morning we awoke to a full breakfast laid out beneath a silver cloche in a library of such books it would take a lifetime to read. It was then I saddled my horse and journeyed to visit the Knights of Middle England, and be instructed in their ways… All in all and very, very pleasant quest. 10/10, would quest again.

Wow. Booked as a surprise for my husband who is a history buff. Not sure how me and our children managed to keep it secret but we did. He thought we were staying in town but when Andy the Concierge met us in the Stables Car Park he twigged something was a bit different! We stayed in Rose Suite for 1 night. Service was INCREDIBLE. The Conceirge phoned the night before to relay plans. Phoned 15 mins before arrival and were taken to suite as castle was closing. Literally had castle to ourselves! Champagne on arrival. 4 poster bed! Private access to castle ramparts! Tower all to ourselves! Breakfast alone in state room where Queen Victoria stayed! Private tour of castle in morning! Tickets booked and arranged for Dungeons and tea and sandwiches at Peacock Gardens. Was so magical.
