The Midlands are littered with tourism hotspots. Warwick is a beautiful historical town, Stratford is the home of Shakespeare, while Nottingham and Sherwood Forest is the basis for the legendary tale of Robin Hood. For an adrenalin packed day out, Alton Towers in Stafforsdhire should easily fit the bill.
It's hard to pack in all you want into a day at Alton towers, so try staying at the resort. Featuring magical themed hotels, a water park and visitor benefits including early bird ride access to Oblivion and Nemesis.
