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.

Spent two great days at this B&B. It's off the main highways in a small village environment. Peaceful, quiet and relaxing. We had a warm welcome from the staff, who were helpful, friendly and made our stay relaxing. The room was large, clean and stocked with tea, coffee and water. The bed was comfortable and it was very quiet at night. The breakfast bun was amazing, the bacon and sausage tasted great. We had an evening meal which was also prepared and cooked well. I had home made Pizza (loads of toppings to choose from) and my wife had an amazing burger. All in all a great stay. Really Recommend this establishment, and I hope we've back again soon.

Hidden gem with great food

Despite some minor challenges with sorting our check-in, Kordian (B&B owner/manager) more than made up for it with his warm & friendly welcome and making us feel right at home. The room was clean and very comfortable and the fry up in a bap for breakfast was impressive! Thanks for making our trip that bit more fun : )

First night I was welcomed and breakfast was lovely. However after returning from a wedding at 8.30pm the pub was in darkness. I went to my room and slept, on going down the next morning, I could not find anyone. I rang the bell called by phone and shouted. After waiting for several minutes I wrote a note and left for my journey back to Heathrow. My room was cold, no heating and the TV didn't work. Thankfully I had my IPad. I don’t like writing poor reviews but had no choice as nobody was around to discuss my issues. I won’t be going back. The pub is lovely but think they should forget about offering B&B unless they can improve. Ended up with a Mars Bar for breakfast.

The six bells

Hotel was great but on your website it said it had a restaurant but didn't say it's shut Mon and Tues but luckily they was expecting a group of runners and was doing chips for them so offered to do me a burger and chips (had no choice) the breakfast was supposed to be at 8 30am ( I was the only guest that night) but was down at 8 20am and waited till 9am and still nobody came so left the pup with no breakfast very disappointed apart from that every thing was ok except the £15.50 for the burger

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
