Burslem is best known for its rich ceramic heritage, with its roots in the pottery industry still visible today. Independent shops, traditional pubs, and local restaurants are all within walking distance. Further afield, there’s plenty to keep visitors entertained. Alton Towers Resort is around a 35-minute drive and offers world-famous rollercoasters, family attractions, a water park, and a spa. Just 10 minutes away, WaterWorld is the UK’s largest indoor tropical water park, perfect for family fun in any weather. The beautiful Trentham Estate is just 15 minutes away, home to award-winning gardens, a shopping village, and the popular Monkey Forest, where over 140 free roaming Barbary macaques live in a natural woodland setting.
For lovers of the outdoors, the southern reaches of the Peak District National Park are just 30 to 40 minutes away, offering scenic walks, wildlife, and dramatic landscapes. Also within easy reach are the World of Wedgwood, the Emma Bridgewater Factory, Middleport Pottery, the Gladstone Pottery Museum, and the historic market town of Leek.
With so much to explore, The Olde Smithy Apartments provide a well-located and practical base for enjoying the very best of Staffordshire and The Potteries.
