Enjoy Staffordshire Tourism & Good Food Awards 2022
The crème-de-la-crème of Staffordshire tourism and hospitality have been crowned at this year’s Enjoy Staffordshire Tourism and Good Food Awards!
Following a two-year hiatus due to Coronavirus, businesses from across the county gathered at Keele Hall, Newcastle-under-Lyme, for the glittering black-tie event, which was sponsored by We are Staffordshire.
It was our chance to celebrate Staffordshire's fantastic tourism and food & drink businesses, including visitor attractions, places to stay, restaurants, pubs and tea rooms.
The Large Visitor Attraction of the Year was The Trentham Estate, while the Small Visitor Attraction of the Year award went to Foxfield Railway.
Hotel of the Year was won by the CBeebies Land Hotel at Alton Towers Resort, while The Little George was the B&B and Guest House of the Year, and Mayfield Snuggery took gold in the Self Catering Accommodation category.
The Independent Restaurant of the Year was No26 at Aston Marina, and the Casual Dining Restaurant of the Year was The Three Horseshoes Country Inn.
The Meynell Ingram Arms won Pub of the Year, the Ramblers Retreat was Tea Room/Coffee Shop of the Year, and Denstone Hall Farm Shop was the Food & Drink Retailer/Farm Shop of the Year.
