A hose has a connector ( 12 ) at an end portion ( 10 ) thereof for providing a connection with a unit, the connector comprising a first moulded member ( 20 ) having an inner annular surface ( 22 ) moulded to an outer annular surface ( 24 ) of the end portion to provide a fluid-tight connection with the end portion, and a fastener ( 26 ) for fastening the connector to the unit. A method of manufacturing the hose comprises the steps of: inserting a core ( 80 ) inside the hose end portion ( 10 ) to support the hose end portion during moulding; moulding the first moulded member ( 20 ) with the inner annular surface ( 22 ) thereof moulded to an outer annular surface ( 24 ) of the end portion; withdrawing the core; and positioning the fastener ( 26 ) at the end portion for fastening the connector to the unit.
