Great food, great stay :)

I've stayed at the 6 bells a couple of times and it is my favorite place to stay if I'm working in the area. Great food (the Pizza's are amazing), great staff and a beautiful location.

The six bells

Lovely little b n b in its great staff. Room was clean and comfy. We were going to a concert at Englefied house. Got an uber there. We were told by the bar staff that they would be open until midnight for our return so that we could have a drink before bed but in our return the lad behind the bar told us they had closed at 10-45pm and we couldn’t have one even although we had a tab and were staying there. In the morning the owner done our breakfast and he was a pleasure to deal with. All in all I would return and stay again but would triple check closing time of the bar

Quaint Hotel with Great English Breakfast

Cozy place to spend a night while on business. Very hospitable hosts. Fantastic breakfast and great to have a pub and snug bar to enjoy a Guiness.
Darren, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Not what I expected but ok for the price

Advertised to have the option to 'unwind at the bar or restaurant' - neither of which were serving food the night I stayed. Also advertised as having a 'cooked to order breakfast' - all that was available was 2 types of cereal in their boxes, some yoghurts and some berries, still in their plastic supermarket containers. The staff were lovely and despite my room not being ready due to a glitch with the cleaner, my stay was ok. The room was hot, the bed had a thick, feather duvet on it and only a small fan to keep cool.

Friendly pub stay

Friendly bar staff and good atmosphere in bar/restaurant. Food was excellent. The room was spotlessly clean, small but comfortable. Power shower gave good pressure.

Friendly hosts and good value

Had a really nice stay here. The rooms are small, but clean and comfortable. Showers are very good. Hosts were very friendly and accomodating. Cooked breakfast was good and dinner as well. The location is fairly remote so getting around without a car is a bit tricky.

Fair Digs

Room v small (comfort double) but fine for single traveller. Breakfast was really nice, served up by a good front of house host. A bit of a remote location and pub closes at 930pm.

Excellent Village Pub

Lovely and quiet friendly village pub Very clean but would have liked a chair in the room to sit on although in all fairness there probably wouldn’t have been enough room for one Will definitely stay again if I am in the area Unfortunately did not have breakfast as I had to leave early but based on everything else I am sure it would have been excellent Highly recommend this place
