How heavenly is Herefordshire. For tis not only a county border of England and Wales, thus ensuring that one can have a foot in each country on holiday like some sort of Colossus of Rhodes.
But tis also the home of books and Hay Festival town Hay-on-Wye, whereforth we have ventured… and then annoyed our bank managers and landlords re subsequent lack of funds. Oh, and cider. There is a lot of cider in Herefordshire. And a cider route including the world's biggest cider mill. Books and booze – if Pitchup.com did heavenly scenes…
A Herefordshire campsite will be accessible to Shropshire, Powys and Gloucestershire too, with the saucy lure of Worcestershire to the county’s east, but stick around Herefordshire camping proper for the first volume or two of your holiday, for a canter to the city of Hereford with its eleventh century cathedral and the Hereford Cider Museum.
Two Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty, the Wye Valley and the Herefordshire edge of the Malvern Hills, are here also – take to both with books and cider. And do keep an eye out countywide for restaurants and pubs serving prime Hereford cattle beef – again, if Pitchup.com did heavenly scenes…
