Two day watercolour painting courses at this
stunning riverside location.

Nestling  on the banks of the River Wye and gazing over to Ross on Wye,
the Wilton Court Hotel enjoys the most idyllic location with its own riverbank
 frontage as swans gliding past , and  a wide variety of  wildlife 
- including kingfishers, Peregrine falcons  and the occasional otter -
 may be spotted.

A fifteen minute walk across the picturesque bridge will lead you into the town,
 distinguished by its 16th century market place and Tudor timbered houses
clustered around the striking 17th century market hall.
(where twice weekly markets are still held).

Ross on Wye is surrounded by breathtaking Herefordshire countryside
and the Wye Valley.  Places of interest  nearby include the Malvern Hills,
 the Black Mountains, the Forest of Dean , various historic castles ,
 the cathedral cities of Hereford and Gloucester, plus the Market
 towns of Hay on Wye , Ledbury, Leominster and Ludlow.
