The Bell Inn

Not for the first time, we had an evening meal in The Bell and were delighted with every aspect of the evening. A friendly reception in a classic traditional English pub. The bar and dining area were relaxed and fun, The bar staff are delightful, as were all of the pub 'team'. The menu is varied and the dishes we had were delicious. Prices are very competitive. An excellent outing.

We went to The Bell to try out the menu which the new chef had created. There were 5 starters to choose from &, as we were a group of 4, we chose a different starter each. The presentation was lovely & they did not disappoint. Empty plates all round. There was plenty to choose from on the main course too. Meat, fish & vegetarian, all cooked to perfection & extremely tasty. Only two of our group had room for dessert. My burnt orange tart with Crème Fraiche was amazing. The Pain au Chocolat Bread & Butter Pudding with home made custard went down a treat too. All in all an excellent meal. We thank chef Lucas & Jack for their efforts in the kitchen. Well done chaps. Mention must also be made of the bar staff who made sure we were well looked after. Front of house, Tanith extended a warm welcome & attended our every need without being intrusive. Wonderful evening.

I stayed overnight for the first time bed and breakfast. I was very impressed with the very hospitable new landlords. The village is very tranquil and is ideally located for easy access to Bath, Salisbury, Devizes and the rolling country side of Salisbury Plain with its stunning scenic views across the Wiltshire downs. There is a village shop that sells home made breads and pies which are quite wonderful. Overall I would recommend the accommodation to anyone who wants to get away to a peaceful place in a proper old fashioned village and a lovely historic Inn.
