Recommend the 5 Bells and their team very highly. Both relaxed and very professional, from the minute I checked in to a great breakfast. I was en route to the channel tunnel. If you’re doing the same stay here, seriously.

A charming hotel in pretty gardens.

A beautiful property with sparkling clean rooms and very friendly hosts. There are lovely enclosed gardens which were perfect for our wee spaniel.The perfect stop off point en route to Occitaine. We would very happily stay here again.

Room was clean albeit slightly late for 3pm check in. We stayed in ortega which had a lovely bathroom but found the toilet was very cramped. The log fire was a lovely touch and the lack of TV was different but not something that put us off. We had dinner in the restaurant and both starters were delicious and my wife's main course was beautiful but I opted for the steak which although cooked perfectly, was incredibly fatty which detracted from the enjoyment of the meal. The manager was quick to notice and put things right by way of discount and a complimentary brandy. Overall we had a lovely stay and break away from reality 👍
