The Bell in Ticehurst

Imagine if Salvador Dali created The Hobbit's Middle Earth... At the Bell you see the oldy-worldy exterior but as soon as you step into the bar you are greeted by a goose, a stack books beam support, a horse with a lamp shade on its head and top hat stringed lights...theres plenty more oddities on show at every turn. If you think this was a mad ad it can get them you're wrong... Step into the beer garden and you are stepping into a crazy middle earth... Several unique cabins, each with a different theme. One with a bird cage, another with a huge head. Again you may think the craziness ends here... Nope each interior of the cabins is stunning... We stared in Ewe and Eye... And almost everything in the room has eyes haha... Plus a stained glass window over the beds headboard which is lit from the bathrooms skylight... I don't want go into too much detail as it is a place you must experience and find your own novelties hidden within. The food was amazing, the room was wonderful and comfortable and we will definitely visit again... Next time we will possibly experience a different themed room. Many Thanks for a unique start to our holidays 😊😊

Had an amazing stay here. Quirky room with everything you could need, big comfy bed, and fab shower. Really good meal in the pub and cocktails available. Staff were friendly and nothing was too much trouble. Pub itself is a delight. Really cosy with art all over the walls, a lot of effort has gone into design of both the pub, rooms and outdoor space. There is a really big garden area which was a joy to sit in. Honestly can't recommend it enough. Close to Scotney Castle and Bewl Water which are both well worth a visit.

Beautiful bedrooms in quirky old wooden hotel. The food is very good, but the restaurant gets very noisy as it’s so full.
