Ludlow Hotels and Guest Houses

Ludlow and it's castle are set atop a cliff overlooking the beautiful landscape of the River Teme in Shropshire, one of the few unspoiled areas of rural England. The town is seeped in a rich history, with something new to discover around every turn, but is far from being a historical artefact. The ordered elegance of the town centre is a market town holding evidence of an around 900 year old Normal planned town, with a great character.

Ludlow is home to some of the most breathtaking architecture you could witness, including medieval and Georgian examples, filling the town centre with charm and quirkiness. The independent and unusual shops and the traditional market offer a sense of charm and curiousity as you explore the back streets and find the delicious foodstuffs on offer, as Ludlow has an amazing reputation for cuisine and beverages. Ludlow is the home of the first UK food festival and houses award-winning restaurants, superb food producers and great food shops as well as an amazing range of festivals and events.

One of the most impressive sights in Ludlow is that of Ludlow Castle. These ruins occupy the oldest part of Ludlow and the history goes back almost one thousand years, when building began in 1085. The castle is positioned in an imposing location high above the river and features Norman, Medieval and Tudor examples of architectural skill and the initial building of the castle led to the development of the town itself. The castle is available to the public throughout the year and the baileys are used for many different events and festivals to enjoy. Frequently the summer months at Ludlow Castle witness open air productions of Shakespeare plays, September plays host to the Ludlow Marches Food and Drink Festival and Ludlow Craft Festival takes place in late May, all to be enjoyed amongst the amazing surrounds of the Castle ruins.

So if you enjoy history and culture, great food, great drinks, unique experiences, beautiful surroundings and fabulous retail, then Ludlow is the place to be. Accommodation is offered throughout town in the form of guesthouses, bed and breakfasts and public houses, as well as a range of self-catering options.
