Where to stay in Tupsley
The right area depends on your trip — here's what each neighbourhood is best for.
Aylestone Hill House and Bank House stand among Tupsley's own frontages, though the rooms for a stay belong to Hereford, whose centre lies a short way from the ward. The River Wye runs near. Bartonsham, Eign Hill and The Hamptons surround the suburb on its other sides.
You want Hereford if the Herefordshire Light Infantry Museum is the reason for the trip.
