Local area

Based in the heart of England, the market town of Tamworth is located close to the UK’s second city, Birmingham.

Situated in the county of Staffordshire and close to north Warwickshire, Tamworth is steeped in history that can be traced back to Saxon times, when it was the capital of the ancient kingdom of Mercia and was listed in the Doomsday book.

Today, the town boasts a population of around 75,000 and, together with a thriving business community, it offers an ideal lifestyle mix of a vibrant town, coupled with rural tranquillity. This, in conjunction with its central location, excellent communication links, first-rate leisure facilities and wide range of homes to rent, make it an ideal place to live.

Tamworth is positioned at the hub of the UK’s national travel network for both motorway and rail links (Tamworth to London is just 70 minutes by train) and, being within easy reach of Birmingham International, Coventry and East Midlands airports, is well served for air travel too.
