Overall Ratings & Reviews The Bell in Ticehurst

Our room was Yew and Eye, one of the newly built cabins in the garden of this historic inn with a twist. The design is like nothing we’ve ever seen before with surprises every way you look. The room itself has human eyeballs as a decorative theme which was fascinating and amusing. The standard double bed was extremely comfortable, there was plenty of useful storage and good ventilation. A huge marvellous and stylish shower. Gardens, bars, reception and restaurants are all full of delights and the staff are so friendly! Great communication in advance. Would love to stay for longer and highly recommend.

We had issues with the room ( not up to standard for the price paid) ) but these were addressed and sorted out the receptionist Em was very professional and helpful. Food at the hotel was disappointing.. very expensive very small servings and rather tasteless. The pub itself is gorgeous with fires and cozy areas to sit and staff are lovely.

Fabulous food, quirky, comfortable rooms, a lovely garden and friendly staff.

Great place with unique rooms and layouts. I had a very relaxing stay

Excellent hotel With friendly staff

Great hotel with very friendly staff. The rooms are very unique and the whole place has a great atmosphere

Really quirky property which is definitely worth a visit. Good customer service, friendly staff and excellent food.

Very quirky decor which adds to the attractiveness. Rooms excellent. Food delicious though limited Sunday evening menu.

The room was cleaned everyday with fresh cookies next to the tean and coffee maker. The pub has certainly retained its old charm. Food was excellent. For someone from london paying less for beer was a welcome change

From the moment we walked in we had a warm welcome, expecially our dog. Lovely room, very comfortable and great dinner and breakfast. Our whole stay just felt special. Thank you for looking after us so well.

Lovely place, amazing decor and curiosities, staff all excellent, cant fault at all..

This place is awesome! Staff and good are delightful and the rooms are cute and comfy! What more could you ask for!

The bed was way too soft and the room was extremely noisy with the poor quality windows. The noise of the cars outside sounded as if they driving past the bottom of my bed. I had the worst nights sleep that I can remember because of this.

Great pub with unique rooms. Very welcoming staff and included breakfast was excellent with cooked options. We also ate in the restaurant and again the food was great. Lovely walk down to Bewl water from pub as well. Really enjoyed our stay.

The room we had was very noisy. Would request a quite room next time

Very quirky and full of character. All staff were lovely too. If you like walking along quiet lanes and in nature, there are plenty of routes around.

Fab one night stay in the love nest room . Our dog was made super welcome with a dog bed blanket and even a letter . Room was gorgeous pub and restaurant lovely staff really helpful and friendly

This was our 2nd overnight stay and taster menu as we were very impressed last year. This time we stayed in one of the lodges (Pretty Vacant) and it was delightful! Walking into the lodge it felt cosy and comfortable as soon as we were in the door. Lovely and spacious, extremely clean with everything you could want, large double bed, big two seater sofa, walk in shower and bath and also a private little terrace with fire pit. We had booked to have the 5 course taster menu again this year and it was as exceptional as last year! All the lovely little quirky additions make it all the more special and the food was Beautifully cooked and was really superb! The staff were all friendly, pleasant, helpful and efficient! The only thing I would say that let it down a little was breakfast! Weak tea, ice cubes in the fresh orange (which watered it down) and streaky bacon in the full English! (Minor issues when our overall stay was brilliant) We’ll definitely be back again

I've stayed here many times. Very relaxing in the garden and nice area for walking and hiking. Food is also generally good. Friendly staff. We will keep coming back. Improvements: - better coffee

Lovely place, great staff and food was delicious, very quirky with a really good feel about everything and was looked after wonderfully.
