Kenilworth Castle Day Out Review | English Heritage | UK Travel Vlog 4K
This week we visited Kenilworth Castle and Elizabethan Garden, a castle in the town of Kenilworth, Warwickshire, to see if it's worth the money and give you a full tour. The castle is managed by English Heritage and much of it is in ruins. It was founded during the Norman conquest of England; with development through to the Tudor period.
Robert Dudley, Earl of Leicester continued his father's modernisation of Kenilworth, attempting to ensure that it would attract the interest of Elizabeth I during her regular tours around the country.

    I live on the great western park... I hear this steam train alot but never realised it was as good as this... I'm going to have to check it out. Love trains especially these old fashioned steam ones. great video. thank you EDIT: @ 5:28 - 5:30 i know the guy that built that exact model... i was his gardener and he spent his retirement building model steam trains in his garage... he used to take us in there and showed that exact one... it is a complete down scale and can run on steam.

But Kenilworth is another one we want to visit. Mainly me though as I worked at Dudley Zoo and Castle, one of John Dudley's homes (Robert's father). He was one of the main protagonists in getting Lady Jane Grey on to the throne. Great video once again.

    I came in my wheelchair. The grounds and the animals were amazing. My only complaint is the size of the wall around some of the exhibits and in the reptile house. They are a little bit high which makes it difficult to see what is in the enclosure. But it was worth it just to see my dog with every other dog and enjoying himself. X

Chalk Pits is a truly wonderful (mostly) open air site, with excellent collections, especially industrial narrow gauge railways (many from Sussex industries and utilities) and quite the finest collection of Southdown Motor Services buses to be found under one roof - quite literally, given the lovingly recreated SMS garage. If you have no car, no problem ... as the site is literally a couple of minutes easy walk from Amberley Railway Station.

      Haha, yes, you're pretty safe from anti-tourist protests at Center Parcs! Totally agree with you regarding the price. You can spend as much or as little on activities and food as your budget allows. Do you think they've changed much in the 25 years youve been going? Thanks for watching and commenting. Matt and Issy

    Can I ask what lodge number this is? We’ve booked for next year and it looks similar to the floor plan on the one we booked.

      Hi there, I've just looked at our photos and it was lodge 60. I'm pretty sure it was in the Ash area of the Parc. Have an amazing time! Have you been to Center Parcs before? Thanks for watching! Matt and Issy

      @@ExploreHomeRepeat thanks. We’ve booked 897 I think so I think they’re probably pretty much the same. Thank you ☺️ We’ve done Longleat and Woburn but this is our first time at Elveden.

    Hello, I have recently been enjoying watching your videos. Having worked in zoos myself, it's always interesting to see how other people interpret other zoos, wildlife parks and safari parks. Been to West Midlands a couple of times, well over 10 years ago now. Not one of my favourites probably due to the fact how busy it was both times and the theme park side doesn't really interest me. But, it does have a wide varied selection of species. I shall have to try and get back there in the near future.

      Hi there! Yes, we'd agree that the downside to West Midlands is it's popularity. It does get VERY busy at peak times. There are ways to get around it, like doing the car safari in the afternoon however. It's still very good in terms of how many animals you see and how close you get. So when you've worked in zoos, what did you do? Glad you enjoy our videos and thanks so much for watching and commenting. Matt and Issy

      Yes, both times I visited I think were during half terms so bad mistake by me I hold my hands up. One of the times I'd forgotten it was. I have worked at Colchester Zoo with the big cats (just over 20 years ago now which is scary) and as Educational Presenter at Dudley Zoo.

      @jerryncf1553 Oh wow, that must be amazing. We've been to Dudley zoo but not Colchester (yet!)

    • @simonjerryncf1987

      Yeah, Colchester is about 80 acres in size but is jam packed with animals. Part of the zoo is set on a hill but has an easier route to follow. I do recommend Colchester. My favourite is ZSL Whipsnade Zoo. Though that is 600 acres. You can take your car in and park in various areas of the park but they charge an extra £30 on top of your admission fee.

      @jerryncf1553 Yes, we've been to Whipsnade a few times. We always say that place is more for the animals rather than the visitors. Some of the enclosures are vast!

    Looks like there is enough to keep little ones happy. The original park areas seem lovely and interesting. Very random but adds to the experience

    I kind of love how random it is. The fact you don’t know what’s coming up is quite fun. If I’m in the area, I’d definitely give it a go and the park area looks really nice. Hope you have a great weekend. X

      It was certainly unique! It's definitely worth a visit for the money. The gardens were impressive, to say the least. Hope you're doing well. Matt and Issy

    It seems good value for the entrance fee.

      Yes, although we discovered after that for roughly the same price you can go to Cotswold wildlife park. The two don't even compare!
