The Bateman Arms, Shobdon, Nr Leominster, Herefordshire

The Bateman Arms, an 18th Century three storey inn with rooms, situated in the village of Shobdon in the unspoilt County of Herefordshire on the English, Welsh border. The listed building is fairly striking and has an unusual appearance with some of the last of the old cobbled paving outside its front. Recently renovated the inn offers wealth of character. You can sit in a friendly and relaxed atmosphere in the bar with its oak beams and large fireplace which hosts log fires in thee winter and where we serve a selection of light meals.
