The staff is exceptionally friendly and attentive, providing a warm and luxurious atmosphere. It's conveniently located near the A1, with a high-quality breakfast. However, guests find it overpriced, particularly the food and drinks.

We had a group of 30+ staying for one or two nights (varied by couple) before a wedding at a nearby church. In organising accommodation and rooms the staff on reception were amazing. They had great advice for rooms accommodating elderly guests and were excellent when making last minute changes - as is always the case with weddings. On the Friday night they hosted a buffet meal for our guests and once again the staff were amazing, good service, helpful and entertaining. The food was good, a good range of drinks available and the accommodation itself was comfortable and clean. Expect a typical old English country pub feel - the clue is in the name!.

I was given a spa voucher as a gift. It turned out to be a first class gift. The spa is beautiful, it is bright clean airy and modern. The staff were friendly and helpful. Our visit included a two course lunch, the food was exceptional. The spa was not over crowded, which is a real bonus to me. All in all a wonderful experience and I cannot wait to go back

We visited this hotel for the murder mystery evening. The place itself is full of character and old charm, our room was in the old stable block and was Decorated in line with the age of the hotel which was nice for a change, the room was clean and comfortable. The actual event was fun and very well organised, the function rooms are beautiful.. the stand out part for us was the food. Excellent fine dining quality, unusual to get this level of quality for mass catering so we were pleasantly surprised. All 4 of us enjoyed 3 different mains and 2 deserts, my husband is now a Stilton convert as his cheese plate was so nice. The staff were lovely and friendly, from the reception staff to the breakfast servers, we experienced some really nice, friendly customer service. I highly recommend this place and we will come back to try the spa one day too (and more of the food)

Great hotel. Food fabulous dinner, lunch and breakfast.. Stayed for a Murder Mystery event and went to the Spa. Great day and evening. Will come back soon. The hotel was old but everything was in keeping with it. Beautiful tapestry in halls and the restaurant 1650 was modern. Staff really worked hard but always very friendly

Just wanted to say a big thankyou for our lovely Valentine Evening back at Ye Olde Bell. The room was up to your usual fantastic standard, tables set beautifully, with red roses all around. The staff worked hard to make the occasion special for us all. The food was above and beyond in quality & our expectations, thank you so much to the Chef ! it was delicious !! We look forward to returning in the not too distant future. Lovely to see Billy is still keeping everyone on their toes, and we love his banter, brilliant night. Lynda & Alan B.

After reading some reviews before arriving, I was a bit anxious of what awaited ! The hotel is an old coaching inn and so the decor is very traditional but spotlessly clean and in keeping . The rooms were spacious and immaculate. Visited the spa which was very modern and the grounds all well kept. Food was very good, had Sunday lunch which was excellent, very old school service but staff all efficient and friendly. Every staff member we came across bar / reception/ cleaning were all cheery and courteous . Really pleasant stay would come again.

Perfect location for us, delightful welcome, staff very attentive yet professional. Excellent supper and the biggest bed we’ve ever slept in followed by a great breakfast. Won’t be our last stay! The choice of restaurant areas was good, as was the relaxed lobby/lounge area near to the reception desk.
