Restaurant for breakfast was really good, tables not too close together. Rooms well looked after with extra items, little coffee machine and planty of choice of teas. Hot weekend so could have done with a fan.
Only thing I would suggest is to make signage for reception clearer when arriving from the rear car park. The sign over the door was overgrown...

Lovely old historic Inn. Rooms traditionally furnished and had some nice welcoming touches. Bar was very cozy. Staff very welcoming. Breakfast freshly cooked. No lift but staff kindly helped us to the top floor with our bags. Our daughter stayed in a ground floor garden room overlooking the beer garden which was also very nicely furnished. Menu looked great but we ate in the Indian restaurant directly opposite which was also excellent. Will stay here again when passing through.

Poor check in and left waiting, went for evening meal no table available, found a table but was told we couldn't use it, complained and asked to see the manager and then as we were a resident we could have the table. Upsetting. My caesar salad lettuce leaves were rotten but hidden at the bottom of the bowl. All very upsetting. Informed staff in the morning our wash hand basin was blocked, was told it would be sorted out. This did not happen. We left our key at reception when we left and was confronted in the outside area had we paid our bill. We said we had and had received a receipt but was asked to step inside so he could check it. We felt like we were a criminal. This was the deputy manager and i Informed him that we had received our receipt from the manager Alisia. Eventually we left very upset indeed. We shall not be using this hotel again

Well worth a stay, only downfall was the fans need cleaning or definitely updating as they ( two of them ) were dusty or not working so ended up not having a fan & in hot weather & no aircon not the best, but that was the only let down.

Great Period Property Hotel

I checked in late to the hotel and the staff were friendly and helpful. Food was not being served apart from desserts or cheese board. They also advised the restaurant across the road were still serving food. I opted for the cheese board and was not disappointed. Lovely selection of stilton cheeses, biscuits and onion pickle.

The hotel room I stayed was is in a period part of the property so had all of the lovely quirky bits (uneven floor, creaking wood, etc.). It was a large room and all was very clean. The room included Nespresso coffee machine and you could order fresh milk. Bed was comfortable and room was quiet.

Breakfast was a good selection of cooked meals and continental (cereals and fruit). The food was served quickly and it was tasty.

Would recommend staying in the hotel.

The hotel grounds were lovely. The “deluxe suite” we’d booked had some worrisome issues. If you’re a guest anywhere near 6’ tall you run the risk of cracking your head (and drawing blood) on the sharp wooden beams like my spouse did. The towel rack in the bathroom (that also had a low wooden ceiling beam) was scalding hot with no shut off lever.
Our safety concerns were relayed to the staff and although they said they’d investigate it didn’t seem like much of a surprise.
The breakfast though was first class !

Gem of a hot

Lovely rooms / spotlessly clean. Great food and welcoming staff / however at times they could be hard to track down! Only downside was some noise from A1

Noisy night

Disappointing stay. Noisy from 05.30 when i suspect staff arrived, radio went on and woke us up. Room was on the small side and everything just looked dated. Soundproofing was non-existent.

Beautiful hotel, friendly staff, delicious food

Lovely overnight stay. Delicious dinner in the restaurant and cooked to order breakfast. Room was comfortable and lovely touch having the radio playing as we entered.
There is a lovely outdoor seating area but sadly was too chilly, maybe we’ll visit again in the summer.

A lovely hotel for a weekend break.

A weekend break to celebrate and relax. Room was comfortable and clean. Only downside was the shower in oir room which had very low pressure.

An amazing experience in a charming town. We loved The Bell Inn and all its rich and fascinating history. The rooms were great and the staff was extremely nice and helpful. The food at the Inn restaurant was great and if you like blue cheese this is the place to try their famous Stilton Blue Cheese.We had our Saint Bernard with us and everyone catered to our dog as if she was there own. Lovely experience and we would definitely return soon.

Brilliant place to stay

The stay here was exceptional- I was stuck here due to the weather but I can think of nowhere better to have been stuck. The staff were all so lovely and welcoming and nothing was too much trouble. The room was spotless and very comfortable. The food in the bar was excellent. I can thoroughly recommend it as a place to stay.

Excellent all round. Nice rooms, nice bar, nice restaurant, staff are brilliant. I think the food is a tad over priced for what it is but no big deal. Recommended.

A great place to stay just off the A1 but far enough away not to have the listen to trafffic.
Great food, comfy rooms and friendly staff in a beautiful old building that has been sympathetically updated.

Food is exceptional
Rooms are warm and cosy.
Staff are second to none just had a refurbishment very nice.
Unsure about check-in location as its in the open restaurant and i felt i was checking in in a Costa coffee but overall it was excellent.

Lovely room, super helpful staff, easy parking, great home-made food in the restaurant for dinner.
Not so good - Bathroom with zero character (so different to the bedroom), breakfast was bland and average at best. Nothing of any interest within walking distance.
Overall a solid 8/10 and worth a stay.

Easy to find and plenty of parking spaces free. Really clean and comfortable room. The Nespresso coffee maker came with instructions and there was a good choice of herbal teas. The bed and pillows were comfortable. The shower was powerful and provided a stable temperature. There was a good selection of toiletries. The evening meal of pork shoulder and vegetables was top quality as was breakfast the following morning. I had a full English but also loved the wide variety of nuts, seeds and dried fruits available.

Arrived just before 8pm,. no one at reception but made aware a member of staff was on the phone. Left waiting for some time while she chatted to her area manager about work and holidays!! Not a great start! Room ok, cold but clean, coffee machine was a bonus, bathroom small, plastic shower curtain.
Sat in the bar, shared some small plates and coffee, pleasant atmosphere.
In the morning staff very friendly and helpful. Good breakfast, cereals and cooked breakfast. No fresh fruit, offered a green banana!!
