Local Attractions

Located in the heartland of Britain and easily accessible from all regions, Staffordshire is a fascinating county, combining natural beauty with traditional industry. The whole world recognises Staffordshire as the home of fine china. At internationally acclaimed visitor centres Spode, Wedgwood and Royal Doulton, you can see the traditional quality and skills that gave the area its reputation.

Staffordshire is home to some of England's best scenery: The Staffordshire Moorlands, The Peak District National Park, the dales of the White Peak and the wild moors of the Dark Peak - perfect for rock climbing, walking, cycling or pony trekking. Cannock Chase, a former Royal Hunting Forest and today a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, has miles of beautiful woodland and heath, great for picnics, walking and cycling.
