Bagot's Castle is a 14th century castle in the village of Baginton, and a wonderful day out for all the family.

No earthworks or ruins survive of the 12th-century motte and bailey.

Guy's Cliffe House in Warwick is a haunted gothic mansion. Used as a Masonic Lodge it has an eerie and uncomfortable feeling about it.

Shapes are often seen wandering around during a vigil in this area. This building can be a terrifying experience and has delivered some phenomenal poltergeist activity on previous ghost hunts.
