Life's better shared - come for the food, stay for the company
Nestled amidst the charming streets of Hereford, Castle House stands as a testament to the city's rich history. Its elegant Georgian architecture and prime location amidst the former site of the famed Hereford Castle have made it a landmark of the town for centuries.
A Legacy of History
Our story begins in the 12th century when Hereford Castle stood as a pivotal defense during medieval times. Though its significance waned after the Edwardian conquest, the castle's legacy remains evident in the surrounding area. Today, the tranquil garden overlooking the castle moat offers a glimpse into the past.
A Heritage Reborn
In the 18th century, a local entrepreneur transformed two elegant Georgian villas flanking the road into the grand building you see today. Subsequent alterations in the 19th century added further character to the property. Today, each lovingly restored room and the peaceful ambiance reflect the rich heritage of this unique hotel.
