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.

Nice route. Ross on Wye it's worth to visit. Many beautiful views. One of my favourite route. Shops, pubs, petrol stations on the way so don't worry about food or drinks.
