Warwick Castle is a national monument spanning 1000 years of history. We want everyone to enjoy as many attractions as possible within the castle and its grounds. We have a ‘Welcome All’ policy and we look forward to welcoming guests who have a disability, together with their necessary companion. We are keen to promote access to as many areas as possible and for our guests with disabilities to gain as full an experience as possible within the constraints that a mediaeval building allows.
We also promote that guests with disabilities and their necessary companion are treated with respect and in a manner conducive to their needs. It is Warwick Castle’s wish to ensure that all our guests including those with disabilities receive the same standard of service.
However, some areas within the castle may have restricted access for safety reasons.
