What a find. I will be back. I loved this pub and rooms. Beautifully presented and decorated. Food for dinner and breakfast was great. I loved all the candles and furnishings and the fire lit on a slightly chilly morning at breakfast was lovely. I’d definitely recommend the bell inn. Parking is on the streets near by so as long as mindful of residents it really isn’t an issue. It a very quiet village

I stayed two nights at The Bell as I know it well and which is close to family who I was visiting. This was however the first time I have had a room and I really enjoyed my stay; and would particularly like to acknowledge both Danny and Jo for their excellent support. I choose to eat in both evenings with family joining me and we really enjoyed the food and the ambience in the bar / restaurant. In all I had a very relaxing few days in comfortable surroundings in a great location, and intend to visit The Bell again in the future. KimB.

Great value for a stylish choice in the area

Brilliant find as a base in the Cotswold/Oxford area with The Times 5* rated food downstairs and comfortable bedrooms upstairs. They are well appointed with stylish and unusual touches. Close enough to the bar but feel far enough away that you are not disturbed. Perfect base to explore or simply for a foodie stay away as there is so much on the menu to try you can easily eat several meals here without repeating ingredients. Will be back!

Gem of a inn for business or pleasure

I stayed for 2 days at The Bell Inn whilst in the area on business. The staff were friendly, the restaurant food was amazing, the breakfast superb. The room was clean (apart from a random worm!) and the shower was fantastic. There was no desk in the room, however I went into the pub to type up my notes for the day which worked for me. The wifi was good however there was no O2 phone signal in room 4.

A VERY popular & busy pub. Positives: Room clean, tidy & smelt nice. Good water pressure for an old pub with plenty of hot water. Great shower and complimentary toiletries. Nice having an Nespresso machine with complementary cookies, as well as the usual tea and coffee sachets. Good continental breakfast, with the option for cooked food at an additional cost. Staff friendly and helpful. Negatives: Room 2 was quite small. Very noisy, dont expect to get to sleep before 23:30, if you're lucky. No parking. Parking on the road near the pub was pot luck. Very hot room, although they did provide a fan. Be aware there are some stairs to the room, we struggled a bit, but no option to change as fully booked.

A real treat!

Stayed one night and had a meal in the restaurant. Lovely, cosy tradition village inn. Open fire in the hearth. Candles on the tables. Service was attentive, friendly and polite. Food was full of flavour. The flourless chocolate cake was amazing! Continental breakfast was excellent. Delicious granola and fruits with creamy yogurt, warm croissants, cereals and more! Rooms were comfortable, cosy and clean. Only issue was the winter weight duvet - it was so hot! Even with the window open we found it difficult to sleep. Maybe offer lower togg duvets? Other than that we had a lovely stay and meal. Would recommend.

Sad to write that our experience was very poor having been big fans of the Bell in the past . Very poor communication around our booking .and very bad experience at breakfast .No sausages .Waited and waited to be served and eventually had to ask for our order to be taken .Had to make repeated requests for bowls ,glasses, butter ,bread and then stung with a breakfast charge we had not been advised of and not been charged on previous occasions.They apologised for not telling us but still charged .One of the rooms one was very noisy from 7am onwards.

Disappointing

The room was very cramped. It had a fire exit door in the room but when you opened the door it was blocked in. We could hear everything being said under us in the restaurant and couldn’t keep window open as there were people sitting outside our room smoking. The food in the pub didn’t offer much choice for vegetarians.
