Holly Tree Guest House is conveniently located about 1/2 mile west of the City centre of Hereford, close to the River Wye and Cathedral. Hereford is a vibrant city and tourist destination surrounded by the Malvern Hills, Brecon Beacons and Black Mountains, and plays host to the Three Choirs Festival with its historic Cathedral and the Mappa Mundi being particularly popular attractions.
The property comprises a pair of interconnected, 4-storey semi-detached houses constructed in the very late 20th Century, to a very high standard and providing approximately 4167 sq ft. The guest house has traded for several decades and is a thriving business which is being sold due to retirement.
