Hereford was founded to defend the Welsh border, and the ancient garrison walls are still visible in places. Hereford Cathedral is best known for the Mappa Mundi, a fascinating insight into how scholars believed the world looked at the turn of the 14th century. Ledbury is one of the country’s most attractive towns, and no visit to the area is complete without taking a trip through its narrow, medieval streets, which are crammed with unspoilt, half timbered houses. The Golden valley offers charming, unspoilt countryside, peppered with picturesque villages.
