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 hosts were extremely welcoming, hospitable and helpful. I had a clean and comfortable room and excellent breakfasts. This is a very pleasant village 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.
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.
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
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.
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.
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
