Weobley is the crown jewel of Herefordshire's Black and White Village Trail — a beautifully preserved medieval village whose extraordinary collection of timber-framed, black-and-white houses dates from the 14th to 17th centuries. The village lies at the heart of one of England's most distinctive and unspoilt rural landscapes.


The Church of St Peter and St Paul has a striking 14th-century spire visible for miles. The village's Broad Street is lined with remarkable jettied, close-studded timber-framed buildings. The surrounding countryside is classic Herefordshire — orchards, hop yards, meadows and the distant blue hills of Wales. Hay-on-Wye (16 miles west) and Hereford Cathedral (10 miles south-east) are within easy reach.
