Help me hit the high spots in Nuneaton! ...... Coventry! (And surrounds)

We're visiting for a week next month, visiting family. Anything interesting we could do with our DS (12)? We've done Cadbury World and probably doing Drayton Manor, but is there anything else? Can easily travel a bit further afield. Thanks in advance.

The car museum in the middle of coventtry is good.

Think Tank, Kenilworth or Warwick Castle.

Think Tank is great for a day out. The Black Country Living Museum is easy to reach from Coventry and well worth a visit. The Butterfly Farm in Stratford upon Avon is fantastic and Stratford is a lovely, picturesque place to mill about, plenty of historical places of interest if that's your thing and the Swan Theatre is excellent. Draycote Water is really nice, but I'd go for Ryton Pools over Draycote, and Ryton is only a stone's throw from Coventry. Have fun :)
