Flight

By Air: Birmingham or Bristol Airports

To our lovely guests who will be flying from Germany – we're so glad you're making the trip! The most convenient UK airports for Hereford are Birmingham (BHX) and Bristol (BRS), both of which have flights from major German airports including Berlin and Düsseldorf. From either airport, Hereford is roughly 1–1.5 hours by car or train. From Birmingham Airport: Trains run directly from Birmingham International station (located at the airport) to Hereford via Birmingham New Street, with a journey time of around 1.5–2 hours. From Bristol Airport: Bristol Airport doesn't have a direct train connection, so we'd recommend taking the airport bus into Bristol city centre, then catching a train to Hereford (via Newport or Cardiff). Of course you could always hire a car if you'd like more flexibility, especially if you're planning to explore the area while you're here!
