Introduction
Dilwyn is located in the popular tourist area of North-West Herefordshire. The county is one of the most rural and least populated in England. The area has much to offer to visitors who seek beautiful countryside, a slower pace of life and relatively quite roads.Mentioned in the Domesday book, present day Dilwyn is the result of more than a 1,000 years of settlement. Because of this, Dilwyn has many historic buildings and interesting features. The central village itself is designated as a conservation area.The village, the surrounding area and the market towns of Leominster and Kington are well known for their black and white timber framed buildings.Leominster is 6 miles to the east of Dilwyn, Hereford is some 11 miles to the south and Kington is 9 miles to the north west.
Dilwyn itself has many black and white half-timbered houses, both within the central village and scattered throughout the many hamlets within the extensive 6,400 acres of this picturesque rural parish.Dilwyn is an ideal starting point for touring the local trail of black and white villages. Time spent by visitors looking at the church of St Mary, examining the pretty local buildings and cottages, strolling on the green and perhaps visiting the pub and its garden will give a taste of the desirable quality of life enjoyed by this community.
The Notice Boards on the village green have information for visitors on the reverse sides.

The Cedar Hall is Dilwyn's community hall and is an excellent facility for wedding receptions and parties of any description, as well as for meetings, film show, etc. The rates are very competitive and compare most favourably with similar facilities elsewhere.
