Stylish Guest House close to Hereford centre
Our hosts were friendly and professional. Beautiful room with excellent modern décor. Lovely towels. Great range of treats supplied or to buy from the fridge in the room or downstairs. Appreciate locally sourced produce. Breakfast room was cosy and the breakfast itself was great. Recommend

Somerville house, Hereford
A lovely place to stay near to the city centre. I had a friendly welcome by the owners. Very comfortable room and the breakfast was very nice. A few little cosmetic issues need to be addressed but altogether I would be happy to return to stay again.

Glad I found this place to stay. Lovely place, easy to find with adequate parking. The hosts were lovely and welcoming, even accomodating to our mobility needs and changing our rooms before our stay. Spacious, comfortable rooms with a lovely view of the garden
Breakfast had a wide variety of choices from hot and cold and tasted really good. Thank you for a lovely stay..

I have stayed at Somerville several times and always enjoyed it. Lovely garden. Walking distance from the city. Excellent breakfast. Staff / owners very friendly and helpful. Only slight negative is that sometimes it is difficult to park in the hotel car park, but there is not anything the owners can do about that! Forunately I was able to park nearby. I shall be back!
