Leisure Drives Around South Warwickshire
![]() |
Each drive is around 40 to 50 miles long and carefully planned to avoid the main towns giving you an opportunity to see the countryside. Each run is designed to take around half a day including stops for a picnic, pub lunch or at a suitable attraction or country house.
We provide a full colour Leisure Drive leaflet to all our customers but if you wish to look at the routes in detail before you hire a car, you can select them from the list below:
The Arden Tour The Arden was the name once given to the land north of the River Avon. In Shakespeare's time much of this countryside was covered in the Forest of Arden and this is where, in As You Like It, Shakespeare's Rosalind tutored Orlando in the ways of love. This tour passes through some of Warwickshire's prettiest villages
The Edgehill Tour Starting in Warwick, this tour crosses the Fosse Way - built by the Romans from Exeter to Lincoln - and takes you out to Edgehill - with some of the finest views over South Warwickshire
The Stoneleigh Tour The Stoneleigh Tour starts from St Nicholas' Park in Warwick and takes you through the historic town and the north of Royal Leamington Spa. It then leads you through rolling Warwickshire countryside to the market town of Southam before heading north to take in Stoneleigh and Kenilworth
The Stour Tour This tour starts from Stratford-upon-Avon and takes you through the southern-most part of Warwickshire and the edge of the Cotswolds. This part of South Warwickshire is characterised by gently rolling open countryside.
