A Warm Welcome awaits you in East Staffordshire, the home of British brewing and capital of The National Forest.

Located in the Heart of England, our rich history embraces the well-known historical figures of Mary Queen of Scots, Robert Peel and Henry Ferrers; brand names such as Marmite and Bass; the unique Abbots Bromley Horn Dance and traditional Well Dressing events.

Hand in hand with the industrial heritage of Burton upon Trent, you will discover some of the most beautiful countryside in the Midlands with lush fields and pretty villages, award-winning restaurants and cosy pubs alongside the River Trent and our meandering canal network.

The wider County of Staffordshire opens up a world of possibilities!

If you like your adventure wild we have theme parks, ski centres and water parks to thrill you. Creativity is in our blood and has been for generations and as home to Josiah Wedgwood, Samuel Johnson and even Robbie Williams, there's plenty to explore and admire. But we also have more than our fair share of natural beauty with a National Park and an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, many magnificent gardens and even a Monkey Forest!

So there truly is 'Something for Everyone'

Come and visit us soon - we can't wait to meet you!
