Fodor's Expert Review Castle House

These conjoined Georgian villas next to the moat (all that remains of Hereford Castle) offer luxurious lodgings, a warm welcome, and good food. Delicate plasterwork graces the public areas. Spacious guest rooms vary in style, with light hues and floral wallpaper; each bedroom contains a decanter of sherry. The excellent restaurant relies on locally sourced and regional fare, such as Hereford beef and Gloucester Old Spot pork and is open all day for light refreshment.
