The small town of Kington, known as the “centre for walking”, is situated near the Welsh Borders in the area known as The Marches. The area is renowned for its lovely scenery and for its excellent walking in the surrounding rolling hills. This quiet, pleasant town has a number of excellent shops, pubs, restaurants and a variety of tourist attractions close by including Eastnor Castle, Kingswood Small Breed Farm Park and Owl Centre, Hergest Croft Gardens, the Mortimer Trail and the Offa's Dyke Path, over Bradnor Hill which boasts England’s highest golf course, and Hergest Ridge, the inspiration for the beautiful music of both Elgar and Mike Oldfield! Also within easy reach and well worth a visit is the delightful town of Hay-on-Wye with its numerous book shops, craft and antique shops, while the ancient city of Hereford with its impressive Norman cathedral and famous Mappa Mundi, a 13th Century cartographer's interpretation of the world is a great day out. A delightful holiday location to suit all tastes!
