Oh la la! A taste of France comes to Herefordshire in early October

18 September 2007


Delicious cheeses, fresh baguettes and sausages from the charcuterie are just some of the delicacies on offer at this year's French Market from Normandy visiting the county next month.

Marche de France, a team of French traders, is coming to tempt visitors' taste buds with wines, pastries and all things French when they set up their stalls in Ross-on-Wye, Hereford and Leominster early in October.

The market has been very successful in the past in many other places bringing in people from all over the area and increasing footfall in town centres, meaning a boost to local businesses as well.

More than 16 stalls selling food, drink, crafts and other goods will line the streets, ensuring visitors find something for themselves or a present for someone else.

Visitors will be able to treat themselves to homemade French pastries, delicious ripe brie and olives while soaking up the atmosphere of a traditional French market.

The market, which comes from Normandy has something for everyone, includes new craft and food stalls.

The market will be staged on the Market Place in Ross-on-Wye on Friday, October 5, in Hereford's High Town the following day, Saturday, October 6, and in Broad Street, Leominster, on Sunday, October 7.

Each of the markets start at 9am and finish at 5pm.
