After spending weeks attempting to write my university dissertation with no luck, I decided to head down to the Guildhall gallery for some inspiration. I was given a lovely warm welcome and able to purchase coffee and cake, as well as a light lunch, to keep me motivated. Between bouts of writing and brainstorming, I was able to browse the lovely selection of art and crafts available to purchase. I will definitely be back to admire the talented artists’ work and enjoy the atmosphere once the dissertation has been completed to fully appreciate what a beautiful gallery/cafe this is.

On arrival the guys were really friendly and helpful. We choose to do the Dr incognito's room for a date night and it was really great fun! Really good value and I can highly recommend! Would definitely go again to try and escape from the other rooms.

Just a short walk from home this is a fantastic location for leisure visits for all the family. Lots of trails for all and just fantastic views, the choice of entry routes is endless, we often walk along the canal and then into seven springs before heading to Marquis Drive or Birches Valley, just the tip of what this area has to offer

Whilst there is plenty of exhibits for visitors to admire in this free museum as a carpenter/joiner and latterly building surveyor I was fascinated at the construction of this hewn English oak timber framed building.

The Dick Whittington A Rock ‘N’ Roll Panto was fantastic! It was my first pantomime and I was told not to expect much. I was so impressed!! All the cast members were extremely talented, dancing, singing and even playing multiple instruments. The show went by so fast because every act had our attention. The Stafford Gatehouse Theatre hosts so many good acts. It’s a great venue. There isn’t a bad seat in the building. We will definitely be back.

Home to the Anson family since 1624, it was once described as ‘a perfect paradise’. Visit this important piece of Staffordshire's heritage for a full day of discoveries. You can explore sweeping parkland peppered with monuments. See seasonal blooms in the formal gardens, or produce in the walled garden. Head over to Park Farm and see the Tamworth pigs and Dorking chickens. Say hello to the animals, such as Longhorn cows and Southdown sheep that roam around in the fields. In the Georgian mansion, unearth unusual treasures and experience life 'below stairs' in the servant's quarters, then enter a world of glamour and royalty in the apartments of Patrick Lichfield, 5th Earl and fashion photographer. Entrance to the Lichfield Apartments is by a limited number of timed tickets, available at reception. Run little legs round the play area and round off your day with a treat from the tea-rooms. Take something with you to remember your day, or maybe just a tasty icecream, from the shops.

Even though some of the house was not accessible due to covid constraints this was a lovely visit. The volunteers were really knowledgeable and were very keen to offer information to make the visit enjoyable. Fabulous house and gardens with fabulous 18th century features, a step back in time. Enormous estate with plenty of opportunity to get our steps in. The walk up to the arch at the end of our visit was worthwhile for the views and to learn about its origins. We are keen NT members so really pleased to see this open. We visited for around 5 hours and could have spent longer. Will look forward to coming back again, when even more will be open hopefully. There is a cafe which we didn't try either, so a lot to come back for next time!

Visited for the first time last week to see Toy Story4 with family, easy to pre-book and on arrival pop your card that you booked with into machine to print your tickets off, thus avoiding queues. Recliner seats very comfortable with small table to accommodate snacks and drinks. Staff helpful, polite and they serve wide variety of cinema snacks, popcorn buckets huge! They take Meerkat voucher codes for Tuesdays and Wednesdays. Pleasant visit all round.
