Staffordshire sits right in the middle of England, a county full of contrasts where industrial heritage rubs shoulders with rolling countryside, market towns, canals and theme parks. It's a place where you can explore the legacy of the Potteries one minute, wander along peaceful towpaths the next, or head off into the hills of the Peak District that spill into the north of the county. Staffordshire might not shout as loudly as some places, but it quietly offers something for everyone.

The county's history is rich and varied. Famous for its role in pottery and ceramics, Staffordshire became a global centre for fine china and pottery-making during the Industrial Revolution. Stoke-on-Trent, often called "The Potteries", grew out of a cluster of towns where names like Wedgwood, Royal Doulton and Spode became world-renowned. But the county's story goes back much further, with Stafford itself dating back to Anglo-Saxon times. Castles, canals, ironworks, coal mines and steelworks have all played their part. Today, around 1.1 million people call Staffordshire home, spread across a mix of cities, towns, villages and wide open countryside.

There's plenty to see and do across Staffordshire. Stoke-on-Trent remains the heart of the pottery industry, with several visitor centres, museums and factory shops offering a chance to see the famous craftsmanship up close. Alton Towers draws families from all over the country with its huge theme park, rollercoasters and waterpark. In Lichfield, you've got the stunning medieval cathedral with its unique three spires, while nearby National Trust properties like Shugborough Hall and English Heritage's Stafford Castle add extra layers of history to explore. Cannock Chase, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, offers fantastic walking, cycling and wildlife spotting, while the Trent and Mersey Canal, Shropshire Union Canal and Staffordshire & Worcestershire Canal weave gently across the landscape.

Further out across the wider county, you've got the southern edge of the Peak District around Leek and the Roaches, offering some of Staffordshire's finest walking and climbing spots. Tamworth brings its impressive castle, SnowDome, and shopping. The National Memorial Arboretum at Alrewas offers a peaceful and moving place of remembrance, while Drayton Manor Theme Park keeps the kids entertained. The Potteries Museum & Art Gallery, The Ancient High House in Stafford, and Biddulph Grange Garden all add to the long list of places well worth a visit.
