Consider staying at one of the on-site hotels for a multi-day adventure.

2. Snow Dome Tamworth:

6. Cannock Chase Forest:
- Nature enthusiasts can explore Cannock Chase Forest. Walk amidst ancient woodlands, spot wildlife, and enjoy the fresh air.

7. Shugborough Estate:
- Visit the Shugborough Estate, a historic stately home with beautiful gardens. Explore the mansion, farm, and riverside walks.

8. RSPB Coombes Valley:
- Birdwatchers will appreciate RSPB Coombes Valley, a wildlife-rich reserve. Keep an eye out for feathered friends in this serene setting.
