Where to stay in Finham
Not every neighbourhood fits every trip — here's what each one is good for.
Lunt Roman Fort is the pull here, not a hotel row. Finham runs to housing on the parish edge, and the beds sit either back in Coventry city centre a couple of miles north or out towards Kenilworth and Warwick. Baginton Castle stands close by.
Choosing between the two directions is really a choice between a city base and a country one, with Finham the quiet ground in between.
