Wedding Anniversary

Stayed one night to celebrate my wedding anniversary. Lovely old fashioned room, four poster bed and a nice en-suite. Staff were friendly and helpful and both dinner and breakfast were splendid. The hotel is in a lovely location in the centre of Malmsbury and adjoins the church yard. Very nice, but a little pricey.
Great village hotel with wonderful staff

If you are looking for a little English hotel and bar that may have one or two quirks whilst it's in the process of being restored, but are the type that can easily be overlooked by means of extremely friendly service, great food, reasonably priced, and a convenient location, then the Bell House is for you.
Having never been outside of London City I was a little unsure what my first trip to the English countryside in the small village of Sutton Benger would entail. My room had everything I needed including coffee/tea, TV, iron, plenty of space/storage, and a comfy bed.
Chris and his team were incredibly welcoming. Every night my favourite drink was being poured before I asked. My table for breakfast prepared and everything cooked to my liking, and I had many an engaging conversation with Chris and his team. Like any good host and bartender, Chris was able to get people within his bar talking to each other as well.
Tip: Book via the Bell House website to get free breakfast (a special at the time of this review).
Have dinner there, the pie was fantastic, as was the tomato soup which is something I normally don't like.
This place is old. The floors will creak and the water pressure isn't brilliant. I was advised of the pressure upon arrival and explained it to be a result of the small village. Apart from that, nothing else bothered me. You might experience something different and I would urge you to talk to Chris if you do because if there is an issue he will do whatever he can to fix it.
Being on a business trip we would typically stay in Malmesbury at a much more expensive hotel that is closer to the office...but when I return in 2018 I will be staying at the Bell House again.
Quirky rooms , good food!

Stayed here as near to a family get together . A quirky , very old Pub / B+B, most rooms renovated with modern bathrooms and very comfortable beds , but still seems to be a work in progress! Shower very temperamental, took 3days to get to proper temperature. Electric sockets in very weird places , couldn't get phone chargers in , apart from one! Had to put kettle on a stool to access socket . However we were very comfortable and made very welcome by Chris the Owner. Breakfast is outstanding , didn't get chance to eat in the restaurant but it has a good local reputation. We were also told that if we'd booked direct we could have paid a lot less and had breakfast included !
Delightful

This was a delightful find. We stayed for one night in a comfortable room opening onto the garden. The staff were really friendly and helpful. Nothing was too much trouble. The food was delicious Well cooked, seasoned and presented. I have no hesitation in recommending the Bell House
