Things to do in Warwickshire February half term 2025
School holidays are approaching again, so it’s time to check out all the things to do in Warwickshire during February half term 2025. As half term isn’t quite such a big event as the Christmas holidays, many places announce their plans quite late. If your favourite attraction doesn’t have anything listed as yet, do get in touch with them to see what their plans are. If you’re on a budget, check out these free things to do in Warwickshire as well.
This post covers the Warwickshire area only. If you are looking for half term days out in nearby counties, please see below:

Enchanted Tea Room
I absolutely love the look of the Enchanted Tea Room and their events look fabulous, but I do find their website a little difficult to navigate. There is a school holidays tab within their February events page, but it’s empty. However, lots does seem to be going on during half term. Themes include:
- Afternoon tea with princesses
- ABBA-noon tea
- Be our Guest Beauty and the Beast themed afternoon tea
- Afternoon tea with Rapunzel
- Afternoon tea with the Snow Sisters
- Rapunzle themed afternoon tea
