The community

Kenilworth is a town full of history, in south Warwickshire. With its nice homes, outstanding schools, attractive surroundings, and good health and sports facilities, Kenilworth is listed in the Sunday Times as one of the best places to live in the Midlands.

Lying in the heart of the Midlands, just off the A46 it has easy access to the M69, M1, M6, M40 and M42 motorways. Warwick and Leamington Spa are just 5 miles away, and you can be in Stratford-upon-Avon in 20 minutes.

The Railway Station has been great for the local economy, bringing visitors to the town and giving Kenilworth residents the opportunity to travel between Coventry and Leamington Spa connecting to Birmingham, London – and beyond!

The old High Street and Warwick Road offers a wide selection of excellent pubs, cafes and shops and there are many parks and green spaces in the area ideal for families. Kenilworth is also a popular destination for tourists, it being known for Kenilworth Castle and Kenilworth Abbey.
