A great day on the water I booked a two day trip for myself and my son from Hereford to Ross on Wye. Andy contacted me to inform me we might have to amend the trip as it had been raining for a few days the river was rising quickly and our safety was paramount. We met Andy at Tresseck Campsite where we agreed to change to a 1 day 18.5 mile trip from Lucksall to Ross on Wye, as the river at Hereford was to high and not safe enough. We received a very good safety brief before starting our paddle down a rising river. We had a fantastic day seeing a kingfisher, a few egrets a couple of herons and loads of geese. as well as beautiful scenery. We arrived at Ross and were met by Andy who kindly took a photo of us both and transported us back to Tresseck campsite were we set up camp and relaxed chatting about our trip around an open fire. I would highly recommend Hereford Canoe Hire if you are thinking of a canoe trip on the Wye. They are very friendly, professional and nothing was to much trouble.

Great fun and beautiful scenery We had a fantastic time with Hereford Canoe hire. Everyone loved our 2 hours on the river. It was very peaceful and we felt incredibly at ease after Andy’s safety chat. We saw and heard lots of bird life including 2 kingfishers. Perfect on a warm autumn day and definitely something we will do again. Thank you! Ceri

A great morning with Hereford Canoe Hire An excellent, fun experience. Superbly organised from meeting up, transporting to starting point, briefing, practice to canoeing down the Wye. Ideal for novice and experienced canoeists alike. The beautiful River Wye was running high and the briefing taking us through it all, including what to do if capsize or end up in the water, left our group a little nervous (only 2 had previously canoed before), but the initial putting into practice what Andy had gone through whilst we were still in calm water at the start soon brought the confidence back. Andy kindly took some group photos, then we were off. We went for the half day package, which gave us an 8 mile row back to Hoarswithy. The river was beautiful scenery, with friendly fishermen who both encouraged and laughed when we steered towards the trees or got blown off course by the wind! The canoeing was gentle in places and hardwork in others - having successful negotiated the river we arrived back to Lucksall where Andy helped us exit the boats (the beach at Lucksall was no longer visible due to rising water). Our group had a wonderful time and was the perfect end to our week stay in Herefordshire. Thoroughly recommend booking a trip with Hereford Canoe Hire - great value for money, great organisation, great fun and great way to see the countryside from the river. Perfect whether you are a novice or experienced.

Great afternoon on the water Lovely trip from Lucksall to Hoarwithy. Gorgeous countryside and we were lucky enough to spot an egret and a kingfisher. Excellent service from Andy and Will and my son and myself enjoyed the refreshments available back at the Tresseck campsite after an enjoyable afternoon on the water.

Andy to the Rescue!! The most helpful people. One of our group dropped their phone in the river. Andy took them back and went in the river to successfully recover the phone! Can't recommend HCH enough! 🙂

Excellent once again Having used Hereford canoe hire several times they were the go to option for canoe hire on the Wye. The service once again was excellent,the staff friendly and professional and the equipment in top order resulting in a wonderful couple of days on the water. We would have no hesitations in using them again and will definitely return.

Great canoeing on the Wye The whole canoe adventure was great, The river was warm and flora and fauna remarkably varied. We saw Egrets, a Heron, a King fisher and lots of large salmon. The reflected views of the banks in the afternoon sun were stunning.

Great way to view wildlife and the Wye valley! A great company. If you want a fun and different way to view the beautiful Wye valley then definitely do this activity. We stayed at Tresseck campsite and were picked up in a mini bus to be transported to the start point and given a good briefing of safety and what to expect. Enjoyed a few hours meandering down the river before ending up at our camp site downstream. Will definitely do it again!

Lovely day away from computers!! We had a great day on the river. We met Will at Tresseck campsite and everything went smoothly. Booking was easy and great communication. We will definately be doing this work trip again!

Great day going down the river We had a great day going down the river. It was the first time we were both canoeing but with clear guidance from the instructor prior to setting off, everything went well and was enjoyable. Would really recommend.
