Principal towns: Stafford Stoke on Trent Lichfield
In Staffordshire you’ll find the best of Britain in an area that’s easy to reach, a unique blend of world-class attractions, fascinating heritage and magnificent Peak District landscapes.
For sheer, wide-eyed excitement, nowhere else comes close to Staffordshire. This is where you’ll find Alton Towers , the UK’s No.1 theme park, a magical world with over 125 rides and attractions set in magnificent gardens. The park has two themed hotels and an indoor water park open all year round. Drayton Manor Family Theme Park is home to the world's first stand-up tower drop 'Apocalypse' and offers a variety of entertainment for all the family. Tamworth SnowDome has the best action on real snow with all-year skiing , tobogganing and 'Adrenalin Tubing' - or by contrast you can enjoy a subtropical aquapark with rides, rapids and flumes at Waterworld .
Where can you see the world’s finest china take shape before your eyes, have a go at throwing a pot, and discover how beer has been made for centuries? Staffordshire is home to many world-famous names, Wedgwood, Royal Doulton and Spode. In The Potteries , over 40 factory shops offer beautiful china at bargain prices. Burton upon Trent is home of the brewing industry, and the Coors Visitor Centre (formerly the Bass Museum) tells the story of beer and brewing.
Stories of Staffordshire’s past come alive in its stately homes and gardens. Shugborough , the magnificent home of Royal photographer Patrick Lichfield offers you the chance to experience life “below stairs”, as well as a glimpse of some of the Earl’s private rooms and his work.
Haunted houses and dramatic castles tell tales of one thousand years of history – and beyond. Tamworth Castle is Staffordshire’s most complete castle, you can explore dungeons and rooms dating from Norman times. You may find Mary Queen of Scots imprisoned still at Tutbury Castle, or you might have a spooky experience on one of the regular ghost hunts!
The elegant city of Lichfield has at its centre the magnificent three-spired Cathedral , surrounded by historic buildings including the birthplace of Samuel Johnson and Erasmus Darwin .
The County Town of Stafford has some fine Elizabethan and Georgian architecture, including The Ancient High House , the tallest timber-framed town house in England. The ruined battlements of Stafford Castle provide a dramatic setting for Shakespearian productions during the Stafford Festival each July.
The ancient Borough of Newcastle-under-Lyme in North Staffordshire has a fascinating Museum and Art Gallery set in pleasant parkland, and recounts 800 years of history.
Staffordshire is home to some of England’s best scenery, the Staffordshire Moorlands and Peak District, where dramatic uplands and dales are perfect for any number of outdoor activities from cycling to hang-gliding. Cannock Chase , an “Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty” has miles of woodland and heath where Britain’s largest herd of fallow deer roam free.
Heritage railways will take you deep into hidden countryside. Travel through “the secret valley” on the Churnet Valley Railway from Froghall station. Foxfield Railway also offers steam trips and a lively programme of events.
Take a breath of fresh air in The National Forest, Britain’s most exciting environmental creation with over 400 new and ancient woodlands. With more miles of canal than any other shire county, you can explore breathtaking countryside from the network of waterways, trails and country parks through the County.
