SELLERS COMMENTS "We have greatly enjoyed this unique house, from the character of the traditional cottage to the spacious kitchen dining room, for seventeen years. Our large, mature garden is peaceful, private and productive; it is stocked with bulbs, perennial plants, roses, shrubs, fruit trees and bushes. The location of Tudor Cottage is ideal, at the centre of a friendly community in the ‘Old Town’ area. We’re very close to the Castle and Abbey Fields, the green heart of Kenilworth, while numerous pubs, cafés and restaurants are within a short walking distance. We can access miles of footpaths across the Warwickshire countryside from our doorstep and we are conveniently near to the shops of Kenilworth town and to the excellent facilities of Warwick University."

TUDOR COTTAGE Tudor Cottage is located opposite Kenilworth Castle and The Elizabethan Gardens in this very historic part of Kenilworth. The cottage is Grade II listed, set within the Conservation area whilst being within easy walking distance of Abbey Fields, the Millennium Walk, open countryside and wonderful restaurants and bars for socialising.
