Hereford, a historic city nestled in the heart of Herefordshire, is celebrated for its rich heritage, impressive cathedral, and scenic location along the River Wye. At the city's core stands Hereford Cathedral, a stunning example of Gothic architecture, home to the Mappa Mundi—the largest surviving medieval map of the world—and the Chained Library, which houses a remarkable collection of ancient manuscripts.

The city's compact centre is perfect for exploration, offering a blend of independent shops, charming cafés, and traditional markets. History enthusiasts can step back in time at the Black and White House Museum, an exquisite Jacobean timber-framed building that offers a fascinating glimpse into 17th-century life.

The River Wye invites activities like kayaking, paddleboarding, and scenic riverside walks, while the rolling hills and orchards of Herefordshire provide excellent opportunities for hiking and cycling.
