The hotel is old but very nicely maintained and uniquely decorated; great food in the bar/restaurant, though a bit pricey for a very small community like this. Staff are helpful as well.

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 😊😊

Amazing place. Great team! Beautiful garden restaurant area.

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.

Beautiful room, lacked air conditioning for good weather, extremely hot! Breakfast was good, restaurant menu limited, food quality was average, the accommodation is in a beautiful village, unfortunately there is very limited eating establishments within the village. Most staff were friendly and welcoming, overall we wouldn’t stay there again.

Room was lovely, clean and had everything we needed. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Breakfast was excellent and a lot of choice to choose from.

Great stay

Wonderful quirky rooms.

Clean room. Lovely decor. Quirky throughout. Warmest welcome. Lovely staff. Great food. Amazing art.

We had a fantastic stay at The Bell - what a beautiful, charming old country pub. The accommodation was beautiful, the food was great and the atmosphere was cosy and quirky. Highly recommended for a weekend getaway!

Fabulous place to stay...quirky and friendly. Excellent breakfast and outstanding service and staff. Would definitely go again!

Everything was perfect. Room spotless staff very friendly. Nothing was too much effort.

Stunning hidden gem, gorgeous rooms, staff are amazing and food is absolutely beautiful! I will be staying again.

Lovely room, clean, good amenities, great food, friendly staff

I couldn’t have loved this place more, great quirky rooms a real old pub feel with fantastic delicious food and great drink choices, a pleasant away from the woeful Madri and Carling most pubs now stock. The service was attentive, friendly and speedy. The place had a real nice village vibe with pleasant interesting locals. Only down side, the WiFi was none existent in my room.

Beautiful, cosy and clean room. Delicious breakfast. Friendly staff. Relaxing gardens with incredible art dotted through the pub and outside as well.

The Bell Inn is a fabulous example of a quirky and eccentric coaching inn incomparable to any other. Fabulous attention to detail, beautiful luxurious rooms. We would have no hesitation in recommending. However be prepared if you stay in the main hotel rooms to either stay up in the bar until it closes or to listen to every word and every cheers from the comfort of your own room.

Quirky and interesting. Will stay again.

We booked to stay as it was near to Wadhurst Castle where we were attending a wedding. The room was The Yew and Eye. Spotlessly clean and a lovely area out the front to sit and enjoy a drink. Very quirky but charming. The welcome at reception and talk through in the room was excellent. The young lady even took a few moments out of her very busy day to give us a brief history of the pub. The bar was busy but well staffed. Breakfast was ample , fresh and most welcome
