Leominster Removals

One of Herefordshire’s largest towns, Leominster, is blessed with the Welsh border to the west and Worcester to the east. Hereford, the cathedral city of the county is just a short hop in the car south. Nestled on the banks of the River Wye, the market town is a popular place to live, praised for its medieval architecture and balance of rural and town life.

Moving to Leominster

Leominster’s pace of life is championed by the community and a stroll throughout the market town, rife with independent stores and cafes is the perfect place to while away an afternoon. The Bell Inn, with its in-house cider press, is a real favourite.

Boasting a rural setting, Leominster offers a multitude of outdoor pursuits. Furthermore, the Brecon Beacons and Malvern Hills are only an hour away.

Leominster Train Station

Some people complain that Leominster isn’t very well connected, despite having a train station. However, for others, this is exactly why it is celebrated. Cycling or using the local bus service is one of the favourite ways to get around. Ludlow and Hereford are a short train journey away and Worcester is 45 minutes in the car on a good day.

Leominster Schools

Leominster Infants and Leominster Junior are both popular local schools with parents and are rated as ‘good’ by Ofsted. Earl Mortimer College and Sixth Form is the local secondary school and was voted as one of the Top 100 Most Improved Schools in the UK. There are also a number of local independent and special schools including Lucton School, Cambian Hereford School and Westfield School.

Buying and Renting in Leominster
