Kenilworth has been named among the happiest places in the UK to live in a new nationwide study by Furniturebox.

The research surveyed 5,000 people across the country to find out where residents feel the strongest sense of joy, belonging and home.

Kenilworth was the only Warwickshire town in the top 75, ranking as the 25th happiest place to live in the UK.

Harborne in Birmingham was the only other local area to be shortlisted.

Furniturebox's study looked at several key factors that contribute to happiness, including access to nature, good schools, affordable housing, and local amenities like pubs, restaurants and cultural attractions.

The happiest places in the UK for 2025 was Norwich, Norfolk, for its "beautiful blend of history, culture, and the calm of nearby countryside and coastline."

In second and third place were Skipton, Yorkshire and Malvern, Worcestershire, both praised for their tranquility and nature spots.

Most of the locations in the top 75 list are not the most affluent in their localities and have access to some affordable housing, including Norwich which has the highest proportion of council housing of any UK city.
