“A traditional inn set besides the picturesque River Lugg. Some rooms with historic features featuring country art and soft floral patterns, and other recently added garden lodges. The restaurant is outstanding, serving traditional British fare with a modern twist.”

Hotel Review
This cosy, historic pub nestled by the River Lugg amongst stunning countryside is full of character. With its exposed beams, low ceilings, terracotta floor tiles, antique floorboards, wood burner, and candlelit tables in the evenings, it is a delightful place for a drink, but even better is the food. Amazingly good, gourmet-standard dishes, but at pub prices. Accommodation varies from charming rooms in the 17th century building itself, plus two external suites featuring exposed beams and stone walls, as well as three lovely if rather small garden lodges. In addition to the beautiful wildlife-rich walks on the doorstep, pretty Ludlow, Hereford and Leominster are all nearby.

The Riverside at Aymestrey
This picturesque 16th-century black and white former coaching inn, set in the heart of Herefordshire, offers superb food and six luxurious rooms. It sits by sparkling River Lugg, with al fresco tables from which to enjoy views and birdsong.
