Kenilworth Castle is set in acres of beautiful grounds in the heart of Warwickshire, overlooking wonderful English countryside.
Built in the 13th century, it has hosted royalty through the ages, including Edward II, Henry III and Henry V - who moved in fresh from victory over the French at the Battle of Agincourt.
But it is most associated with Queen Elizabeth I, who stayed in 1575 when she was famously romanced by the dashing Robert Dudley, Earl of Leicester. With spectacular pageantry, plays, music and dancing, Dudley lavishly wooed the ‘Virgin Queen’ within the walls and extensive grounds of Kenilworth Castle – but marriage was tragically never to be…
Five centuries on, the Gatehouse he built as a grand entrance for his Queen, has been newly restored by English Heritage and is now available for modern-day lovers to hire for weddings and receptions.
