Nestled in England’s West Midlands, Herefordshire is undoubtedly a hidden holiday gem waiting to be discovered. Running along the Mid-Wales border and bordered by Worcestershire and Shropshire, you’ll find plenty of national parks and Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty just a stone’s throw away. Full of natural beauty, history and culture, this is the ultimate spot for a tranquil getaway with your nearest and dearest. The local area is brimming with charming market towns and country villages. Hereford city boasts a lively high street lined with Tudor-style buildings and independent shops, restaurants and cafés. Meanwhile, the beautiful honey-hued Hereford Cathedral is well worth a visit.

There are plenty of other beautiful towns and villages scattered across the county of Herefordshire. History lovers will adore the pastoral views and Elizabethan manor houses in the village of Kinnersley, as well as the timber-framed houses of Ledbury, Bromyard, Leominster, and Ludlow (over in Shropshire). There are also numerous National Trust properties in the area, perfect for visiting, as well as Cardiff Castle and Downton Castle (not to be confused with Downton Abbey). Hikers will want to get out and explore the surrounding landscape, which includes Brecon Beacons National Park, the Malvern Hills, the Forest of Dean, the Wye Valley, Shropshire Hills AONB and Offa’s Dyke - a spectacular long-distance footpath following the ancient English-Welsh Border.

Culture vultures and nature lovers alike will adore the pretty towns of Monmouth, Ross-on-Wye and Symonds Yat, all nestled on the banks of the beautiful River Wye. Bookworms will certainly want to visit the exceptional town of Hay-on-Wye. Here, you’ll find endless gorgeous old book shops and antique dealers, as well as the incredible Hay-on-Wye Literary Festival which takes place in May each year. While you’re visiting Hay-on-Wye you should also take the chance to hike up Hay Bluff. Situated at the northern tip of the Black Mountains, you can enjoy excellent views across the local area from the top of this towering hill. The nearby Skirrid is also another great peak for any keen hikers. Meanwhile, over in neighbouring Monmouthshire, the charming towns of Chepstow and Abergavenny are well worth a visit, as well as the beautiful Severn Estuary.

When it comes to accommodation options, Herefordshire does not disappoint. From grand country manors to cosy loft conversions, you’ll find places to suit all kinds of groups here. Those searching for a picturesque stone cottage should head over to North West Herefordshire where you’ll find plenty of charming little villages such as Pembridge, Bodenham and Kington. Meanwhile, not far from Hereford city, staying in the village of Little Cowarne is the perfect compromise between culture and the countryside.
