We’re feline fantastic once more — because Cat’ll Do Nicely has been shortlisted as a finalist in the 2026 Visit Herefordshire Tourism Awards. This follows our achievement last year, when we were named a finalist in the 2025 awards in the Best Newcomer category, with the ceremony held at the Courtyard Hereford.

Now, for 2026, we’re thrilled to be recognised in the Retailer of the Year category. The winners will be announced at the March 2027 awards ceremony, with the venue to be confirmed.

Our luxury five‑star cattery in the heart of Herefordshire continues to be celebrated for exceptional care, innovation, and our dedication to creating the purr‑fect experience for every whiskered guest. From spacious suites and calming music to CCTV reassurance and care from qualified feline specialists (yes, we still speak fluent meow), we’ve built a haven that feels more boutique hotel than basic boarding.

Being recognised two years running among Herefordshire’s outstanding tourism businesses is a huge honour — and a testament to the love, detail and dedication poured into every furry visitor who pads through our doors.

To our wonderful clients, curious kitties, and everyone who’s supported us: thank you for helping us grow from a dream into a destination. Whether your cat stayed for a weekend or a whole month, you’ve helped us create something truly special.

— Anna, Chris & Sofia 🐾

Proud to be part of Herefordshire’s visitor community

Being named a finalist in the Visit Herefordshire Tourism Awards means more than recognition — it connects us to the wider visitor experience that makes our county so special. While your cat enjoys their luxury stay with us, you can explore everything Herefordshire has to offer, from beautiful attractions and local events to food, drink and places to stay.
