    Looks like it needs a little renovation. (When can I move in?)

    Just southeast of Birmingham, (so relatively central in the “belly” of the United Kingdom.

    They do Guy Fawkes Night there, with the castle as the backdrop for the firework display.

    The horizon festival in Forza H5 was based in and around Kenilworth.

    It has a lot of interesting history to it. When it was in active use it was surrounded by a moat and [large man-made lake](https://www.mediastorehouse.com/image.php?large=712898).

    Later during the English Civil War it was an important staging point for warfare in the Midlands and the parliamentarians (who held the castle) destroyed one of the keep walls to prevent it falling into enemy hands when their forces left the castle.
