LOCAL AREA The property is located on the edge of the picturesque village of Dunchurch just 3 miles south of Rugby. It was once a popular coaching post on the road from London to Holyhead for people going to Ireland over 40 coaches a day used to pass through here. Due to its popularity as a coaching village many famous people are known to have passed through - including Princess Victoria (later to be Queen) and the highwayman Dick Turpin. The village is also known as ‘the gunpowder plot’ village - as it was here that on the 5th of November 1605 the Gunpowder plot conspirators met at the Old Red Lion Inn to await the news of Guy Fawkes attempt to blow up parliament. Today it has essential shops for everyday needs including a pharmacy, post office and hairdresser. There is also a doctor’s surgery, dentist, library and plenty of pubs and eateries. The village has a primary school and local Montessori Nursery in the grounds of Bilton Grange. Bilton Grange - one of the UK’s top boarding and day prep schools for children aged 4 to 13 – can be accessed in a 5 minute walk from Miles End down a leafy back lane. Within a 3 mile radius there is also a selection of state schools, two grammar schools and Rugby Public School. The property is 26 miles away from Solihull (about 40 minutes by car). Rugby train station (just 4 miles away) can get you into London in under 50 minutes. The M45, M1, M6 and M40 are all readily accessible with Birmingham, Stratford-On- Avon, Coventry, Northampton, Leicester and Warwick all within commuting distance. Just a 30-minute drive away and you are also in the Cotswolds. Birmingham International is the nearest airport about 22 miles away. There is no shortage of local attractions. In the next village, Thurlaston, there is an 18-hole golf course. Also on the doorstep is Draycote Water and country park - a 650 acre reservoir used for sailing, windsurfing, fly fishing and bird watching. It is popular with walkers and cyclists. Toft Alpacas is based on the banks of the reservoir and the animals can be seen from the road surrounding Draycote.
