Leamington Spa's main pleasures are its Regency architecture, its gardens, and its proximity to Warwick and Stratford. The Royal Pump Rooms is the cultural centrepiece, housing both a gallery and a museum. Jephson Gardens is one of the finest public parks in the Midlands. The town is a good walking destination — stroll along the River Leam from the Pump Rooms east towards Victoria Park and back through the Old Town.
