Ross-on-Wye Market House

Highlight • Settlement

Nestled by the River Wye, Ross-on-Wye is a charming market town.

Originating from the first travel guidebook by William Gilpin in 1782, it inspired picturesque tourism.

It has independent stores, 19th-century mock-Gothic walls, a Gazebo Tower folly, and colourful homes cascading down the hillside to the river.

Kerne Bridge over the River Wye

Highlight • Viewpoint

Quite a local landmark hereabouts, especially if you are on the river. An ancient crossing point that has been about in one way or another since roman times. An important bridge connection on the Wye that at one stage was tolled. Failure to pay the toll made you liable to a £5 fine. Some things have never changed!

Pedalabikeaway Café & Bike Shop

Highlight • Cycleway

Great bike shop and cafe. Super yummy food and good coffee. What more could you want? There is an outside cafe that serves pizza and coffee to go in the summer which is pretty awesome. In the winter there is a lovely fire inside the cafe to keep you warm.
