Stafford is the county town, with the ruins of its Norman castle, the timber-framed Ancient High House and Victoria Park along the River Sow. Cannock Chase National Landscape and the Shugborough Estate lie just to the east.
Our stays around the town both have a story. Thimble Cottage, a converted village butcher’s shop in Great Haywood, is a short walk from Shugborough over the Essex Bridge, in the village where Tolkien stayed in 1916. The Chapel, near Eccleshall, is a converted chapel sleeping eight, about fifteen minutes from the town centre.
Book direct with our local team and there are no platform fees.
