Hednesford, known for its delightful history as a market town, rests in the heart of Staffordshire and on the edge of the Cannock Chase National Landscape. With a lively high street lined with shops and restaurants, the town makes for a wonderful base for a holiday, enjoying the comforts of ample amenities and the serenity of the surrounding natural beauty. Dating back to 1153, the town has a rich history, with the more recent past showing a strong mining-town development, but don’t worry, Hednesford has kept its charm as time rolled into the 21st century. Within easy reach of Hednesford is the town of Stafford and the cities of Wolverhampton and Birmingham, should you want the hustle and bustle, but the real hidden gems lie amongst picture-perfect scenery dotted around the area, with places such as Alton, Eccleshall and Church Eaton just a scenic drive away.
