Extending the Warwickshire ring...

Featured Posts

Hi,

I'm doing the Warwickshire ring over (originally 7 days) from a Friday to Friday - starting and finishing in Rugby.

I may have an additional 3 days to add on to the cruise. Seeing as I need to be in Birmingham on the Monday night of the cruise, I can extend after then. Do I...

1) Turn left at Fazeley Junction and explore up to Sawley

2) Explore the Ashby Canal

 

Thoughts?

 

Thanks

My only thought is to add that I generally put the 'diversion' as close to the end of the main journey as I can. This means I've got those extra days up my sleeve as contingency against stoppages/breakdowns etc for as long as possible, which makes for a least stress option when tackling a ring in a fixed hire period.

If you are going anti-clockwise, you could wait until almost back at Rugby and then insert a suitably sized 'there and back' down the Oxford to burn off the days you have available. That would be a pretty and interesting part of the Oxford.

The Ashby gets my vote. If you have time you can also include a visit to the excellent Bosworth battlefield centre ( if you like that sort of thing of course )

I think The Ashby is pretty (if somewhat shallow in places).
