It has a fine Georgian town centre and a spa in the Royal Pump Rooms. Leamington Spa also has one of the finest local shopping centers. Leamington is one of a group of Warwickshire towns to the South-East of Birmingham (the UK's second largest city). The others are Stratford-upon-Avon (birthplace of Shakespeare), Warwick (home to probably the finest castle in Britain) and Kenilworth (a smaller, more genteel, castle town).

To the south we have the Cotswolds with attractive towns like Stow-on-the-Wold, Moreton-in-Marsh and Bourton-on-the-Water less than an hour's drive away. In the summer, Leamington is always amongst the leading contenders for the "Britain in Bloom" award with everything from the parks to roundabouts and the fire station decked out with flowers.
