The Cottage of Content

Down winding lanes at Carey, the Cottage of Content is a 15th-century country pub with a stream running past the garden. It does traditional cooking and keeps a few rooms, and it’s tucked far enough off the main roads between Hereford and Ross that finding it is part of the appeal.
