Lovely olde, worlde Inn which delivered once again

This is our second stay at The Bell. Once again the staff were welcoming and friendly. Our room was super clean, the bed was comfortable, bathroom spacious and we had all the facilities we needed. Wrap all this up with the olde, worlde charm of the building and it all combined once again into a lovely break.

Definitely worth a visit!

From the moment arrived, the staff were really pleasant & helpful. Lovely big room. Beautiful bathroom. Bed a bit hard (but that’s cos I like a soft bed). The food was fabulous. I never seen a pub so busy on a Monday night (especially the week before payday)! Breakfast was lovely. Definitely recommend.
