Information about the host

Lower Wythall opened in the summer of 2016 after the present owners, Guy and Sheila, spent over two years sympathetically restoring the seven bedroom Elizabethan property. Features include oak beams, flagstone floors and inglenook fireplaces with modern-wood burners. Herefordshire is cider country and so it’s only fitting that all three guest bedrooms are named after historic cider apple varieties originating in the South and West of England. Each room has its own distinctive character but all three offer the same level of outstanding comfort and luxury you can expect throughout your stay at Lower Wythall.

Sheila is a trained pharmacist and an enthusiastic gardener with a passion for home baking. Guy is an experienced finance director in the publishing sector and a former breakfast chef at his family-run hotel. Both of them have always wanted to run a bed and breakfast and live in an historic house. Here they give guests the lowdown on what makes them tick: Favourite place to visit in the local area: Sheila: Goodrich Castle. An impressive medieval castle with stunning views, only a few minutes’ drive away Guy: Hellens Manor. A beautiful atmospheric, very old house and gardens Best breakfast you’ve ever had?
