Where to stop between Conwy, Wales and Luton Airport?

We are driving from North Wales to Luton Airport in mid-December and would like suggestions where to overnight. I'm thinking about Shrewsbury or Warwick. We need to drop the car mid-morning.

Simple, see both. Shrewsbury is only a couple hours from Conwy, even by the secinc route through Snowdonia (which I would suggest). Poke around S'bury for a couple hours and have a bite to eat. Then an hour and a half to Warick which is antique heaven in the town. The castle is kind of super-touristy and will probably be a disappointment if you've seen many of the Welsh castles. Luton is then in very easy stiking distance the next morning.

Laura, Much Wenlock is another pretty little place worth considing. Another is Iron Bridge.
