Hereford Weekend
31st July - 2nd August 2009
A Weekend of Cheese and Cider and friendship
All three hotels/ guest houses are now full. Bookings are now only being taken for Saturday day and Friday and Saturday nights. To reserve your please book now as this has proved to be a very popular weekend.
Herefordshire offers a county of unspoily countryside, market towns of distinctive character and a wealth of varied landscapes from a historic City to unspoilt and fascinating villages. No visit to Hereford is complete without experiencing the taste of the local cider and wines and of course a whiff of the Stinking Bishop
Friday Evening
A time to relax and meet up with other members of our intrepid band over a good meal before heading off for a ghostly walk around the Historic city itself
Saturday
Take a butchers at the famed Mappa Mundi before exploring Herefordshire and enjoying an insight and taste of the local cider and wines.
Weather permitting a game of cricket then back to the hotel for Afternoon tea.

A gentle stroll, or hike for the more energetic(!), to breathe in the rarefied country air
