Hopes of Longtown is a family-run village store and Post Office at the foot of the Black Mountains. It combines everyday groceries and household essentials with a strong commitment to food, drink and products sourced from Longtown, Herefordshire and the surrounding border country.
Visitors can pick up fresh fruit and vegetables, bread, homemade cakes, cheese, yoghurt, ice cream, local beer and cider, picnic supplies and more unusual ingredients from specialist producers. Fairtrade, gluten-free and vegan choices form part of the wider range, alongside household goods and Post Office services.
