Hereford CathedralThe Heart of Our City
There is no place quite like Hereford; boasting both the charm of rural life and the liveliness of the city. There are many sites of interest and the Cathedral is a great place to start. Standing tall over the city for hundreds of years, the Cathedral is both striking and fascinating; its chambers house the famous Mappa Mundi and Chained Library. The Cathedral grounds have a delightful walled garden and cafe, a peaceful public green perfect for picnics or mingling with friends, and sits besides the River Wye, Castle Green and Bishop Meadows. |
Hay-on-WyeThe Town of Books The medieval market town of Hay-on-Wye is famous for its cobbled streets lined with bookshops and the host of the annual Hay festival. Hay is a vibrant little town with an unusual charm; housing art galleries, antique stores, and artisan eateries. It is also surrounded by walking trails; with the Offa’s Dyke and Wye Valley national trails passing through the town, and the Brecon Beacons National Park on its doorstep. |
