By Road

For ease we will describe the directions to the site from the M6 or M42, as this will help you to avoid the city. If you wish to be
adventurous, we are located just outside of the city on the west side between Tile Hill and Berkswell.

Take Junction 6 and follow the A45 to Coventry, come off at the first turn. Follow the A452 to Kenilworth for

After about 400 metres, on the left is Benton Green Lane, carry on AND the entrance is after this on the left, evidenced by two white signs indicating “Rough Close”.
