Warwick Castle

I've wanted to go to Warwick Castle for a long time and was so happy that we could finally make it. To be honest, all the advertisements for the castle made me so eager to go to it and it didn't disappoint me.

It was a small castle but the fun wasn't. We first entered the Horrible Histories Maze where I've lost each kids multiple time but to my defence, they were running off in so many directions that I gave up. To add matters worse, they had a quiz to hand and competing between each other as to who is going finish first.  Anyhow, once the kids finished they met me at our designated meeting point, we entered the castle. There was a big stage on with performances going on. While the kids were laughing away watching the show, I quickly run around to the places where the timed performances were running so we don't miss on anything.

Before, we explored the castle, we did the Warwick Dungeon. We booked in advanced along with the castle tickets online as it was cheaper. We found the Dungeon more scarier than the London one as it was in an actual castle climbing narrow staircases and corridors. The kids were scared but in a good way! Because we went to during Halloween, it was extra scary.

Next stop, inside the castle, in different parts of it, there were different timed performance which may  differ during different half-terms. The performances were interactive and kids enjoyed running through the castle going on adventure. We then went to the grounds and saw a Falconry show. There was also other paid activities such as knight training and sword fighting. The castle grounds were beautiful with beautiful views. We climbed on top of the walls and walked and looked over the town. There were actors walking around with costumes and weapons which gave us the feel of being back in time.

Overall, we had a great experience and a spooky time!
