Out & About
​Walking is a real treat around here – favourite spots nearby include the Cat’s Back (half an hour’s drive) and Hay Bluff (35 minutes), as well as the hour-long walk from the site to Dore Abbey. For other outdoor activities, try canoeing from Symonds Yat (35 minutes), horse riding/pony trekking with Noakes Farm Riding Centre (50 minutes) or go-karting at Herefordshire Raceway (half an hour).
For something a little less strenuous, take walks around National Trust site The Weir Garden and Brobury House Gardens (both 20 minutes), or sign up for a llama trekking experience with Golden Valley Llamas (10 minutes).
A day spent exploring the many bookshops of Hay-on-Wye (20 minutes) is usually a good idea too, as is one wandering around the city of Hereford (25 minutes), taking in the cathedral, the Mappa Mundi exhibition and the Black and White Museum – and maybe also the Museum of Cider?
