Relax and on a cream tea cruise and step back in time. We visit the charming historic town of Warwick, home to secret gardens and a magnificent castle. Head to Coughton Court and spend a full day at this fine Tudor estate, owned by the Throckmorton family since 1409. We visit Kenilworth Castle and its Elizabethan Gardens, which have been restored to their former glory, before exploring the historic town of Kenilworth itself.
