Introducing Bishop's Castle

Stress seems an alien concept in this languorous little border town, home to an enchanting medley of renowned breweries, contorted half-timbered buildings, second-hand bookshops and eclectic boutiques that endear it to day-trippers. At the top of High St sits the adorable Georgian town hall and delightfully crooked 16th-century House on Crutches (630007; admission free; 1-5pm Sat & Sun), which also houses the town museum.

The pleasingly potty Old Time (638467; www.bishopscastle.co.uk; 29 High St; 10am-10pm Mon-Sat, 10am-2pm Sun) offers limited tourist information.
