Like many Saxon villages, Swynnerton has its Home Farmhouse which has been occupied by the family for over a century.

The farmhouse has recently been modernized and most rooms have private facilities.

A few yards away Swynnerton's two churches stand shoulder to shoulder separated only by the width of the road in distance but by seven centuries in time. That two churches were necessary in the village reflects the troubled period of the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries when the Fitzherberts, strong protectors of the old faith kept it alive in the area.

Later in more peaceful times in 1870 the Fizherbert family built the beautiful chapel which is now used by the family and villagers alike. The old church with its Norman doorway contains in its Lady Chapel a huge statue of Christ in majesty alleged to have been removed from Lichfield Cathedral and taken to Swynnerton Church where it was buried to preserve it from over zealous reformers. Within its chancel is the effigy of Roger de Swynnerton a Knight Crusader of the thirteenth century.

The Home Farm is situated within easy reach of many beauty spots and places of interest. Lying half a dozen miles from the potteries and the Gladstone Pottery Museum, it is near to Barlaston where the Wedgewood Factory is situated. It is equidistant from Birmingham and Manchester and within easy access to the M6 and has Trentham Awakes on its doorstep while the Manifold and Dove Valleys set in Derbyshire's glorious peak districts are only half an hour away. Alton Towers, Chester Zoo and the West Midland Safari Park are within easy travelling distance.

The business is family run with a homely atmosphere and welcomes children and pets. We offer bed and breakfast at competitive rates and evening meals are available at the Fitzherbert Arms a traditional country pub approximately 100 metres away.
