The Town
The quintessential British town of Ludlow is a throwback to the days gone by. You can’t help but fall in love with the friendly welcoming townsfolk and the laid back lifestyle which feels a million miles away from the hustle and bustle of the big city. That’s not to say that Ludlow is a quiet little backwater, far from it. Hosting the famous Ludlow Food and Drink Festival, Ludlow Spring Festival, May Fair, Ludlow Fringe, Green Fair and Concerts in the Castle there are events to keep you entertained all year round. There are also countless antique and local produce markets and book, craft and garden fairs. A market on Castle Square is also on display 6 days a week. For sport lovers days out at Ludlow Racecourse, Golf Course, Rugby, Cricket, Tennis, Bowling or Football Clubs could await. Then there’s the spectacular architecture and countryside that you’ll never grow tired of admiring. Ludlow has to be one of the most perfect places to reside in Britain. The county town of Shrewsbury is approximately 28 miles north and the Cathedral City of Hereford is 24 miles south. Both are easily accessible by the mainline rail that runs a frequent service to Manchester, Holyhead and Cardiff from Ludlow station. In addition, there are regular daily buses, providing transport in and around the town.
