Herefordshire, a county of unspoilt countryside, tranquil rivers, remote valleys and bustling market towns of distinctive character. This wealth of varied landscapes provide unlimited opportunities for a short break or a longer stay. With its rich red fertile soil, Herefordshire is famous for its cattle, sheep, cider , hops and vineyards. Enjoy the Herefordshire Cider route, which will introduce you to some of the Cider producers in the county, and experience for yourself the true tastes of Herefordshire.

To the East of the county nestling below the Malvern Hills you will find the picturesque market towns of Ledbury & Bromyard . Hereford is an ancient cathedral city, and important market centre which attracts visitors from far and wide to its busy livestock and general markets held each Wednesday. Dominating the city of Hereford is the superb Norman Cathedral dating from the 11th century. To the South of the county, set on a high sandstone cliff overlooking a large loop in the River Wye is the historic market town of Ross-on-Wye . The view of Ross-on-Wye is dominated by the spire of St. Mary’s Church, which is visible for many miles around.

South and west of the county lie the charming villages, decorative churches and castle ruins of the Golden Valley, in the shelter of the Black Mountains . Hay-on-Wye , at the northern end of the valley on the Welsh border, is justly famed as 'The Town of Books' and a list of the secondhand and antiquarian booksellers from the Tourist Information Centre will help to source that special edition. Offa's Dyke Footpath, follows an 8th Century earthwork built by King Offa circa 785 AD and follows the border between England and Wales from the Severn Estuary north to Prestatyn. The route runs along the ridge of the Black Mountains, passing through the town of Hay and continues towards Kington. Kington is an historic market town on the English/Welsh border and was originally referred to as 'Chingtune' in the Domesday Book of 1086. Leominster is the other market town on the Black and White Village Trail.

Herefordshire has an excellent range of facilities for you to sample. Please visit one of the Tourist Information Centres listed and they will advise you on what to do, where to go and what to see in the County.
