Worcester to Warwick and Coventry (and also maybe Kenilworth)

[jednick]

This Saturday, I want to visit both Warwick and Coventry, from Worcester.

Is it best for me to buy a day return from Worcester to Leamington Spa? I'll get a Chiltern train from Birmingham Moor Street to Warwick, stop there, and later I'll travel to Leamington Spa and come back to Birmingham New Street on a CrossCountry train, stopping off at Coventry on the way back. Is that the way I should do it?

If this is correct, a further question is can I get any train from Coventry to Birmingham, not necessarily the CrossCountry one?

Also, regarding the Leamington Spa to Coventry portion of the journey, am I allowed to stop off at Kenilworth for an hour (by not using a CrossCountry train)?

Yes to all.
The only fares are routed ANY PERMITTED which allow you to use either route to Leamington and any train operator; breaking your journey is also allowed both ways.
