The Riverside Inn

Highlight • Pub

An absolute delight to stay and dine at this lovely Inn. The staff were amazing and we both said it was the best Sunday dinner we'd ever had with local produce and beautiful tasty flavours. Not many places have nettle cake on the menu for dessert with clotted cream ice-cream yum yum. If your ever in the area I couldn't recommend dining here enough.

On the banks of the River Lugg, nestled deep in the heart of North Herefordshire's Marches, is the lovely village of Aymestrey. This is an ideal base for exploring the hilly woodland of the Mortimer Forest and the wider Welsh Marches region. To the north east are Croft Ambrey's Iron Age earth embankments and to the west are the wooded flanks of Mere Hill Wood.

There's a choice of accommodation in the village, with the 16th-century, black and white timbered Riverside Country Inn boasting excellent food as well as cosy rooms. There are also lodges and a holiday park in the village, as well as further options in the surrounding countryside.
