The Bell in Rother

What a find, staff, food, service, all at its best, from receptionist at time of booking to even the youngest waitress serving breakfast..... What a team of well trained dedicated people.Atmosphere of hotel is busy, quirky, and friendly, with many unique features we found to be great. Can't wait to visit again very soon.

Stayed here to do a Curious House course. Fantastic course in a feast of an environment. Curios abound in a warren of wooden beamed rooms. The most comfortable bed I think I've ever slept in. Love the vibe here, food is pretty fab too!

I went to The Bell over the Easter Bank Holiday with my wife and young child. The excellent waiting staff made us all feel very welcome, especially my child. Our waiter also gave great advice on wine selection. The food was magnificent. They even have a great selection of real ales. Thoroughly enjoyed my time there.

Stunningly quirky place with so much to explore. Room was fantastic with lots of character, best quality pillows, mattress and bedding -slept like a log. The staff are really friendly and helpful- the food is fresh and tasty with the best home made granola and fresh berry compote I’ve ever tasted - walking around the gardens was an experience in itself with interesting features around every nook and cranny. Well done to whoever designed this place - it’s a little gem 👍

Came here for some lunch on the weekend. It's a nice pub, with a great beer garden and would definitely go back for a pint.But the food wasn't so good. The starters were good; the arancini was great and the salmon was good. But the mains were quite bad. The fish burger was far too salty and the beef burger (which was apparently Waygu beef) was basically a dense meatball; much too overcooked and rich.But 2 stars for being a nice place to have a pint.

Lunch was good. Two very nice burgers, one fish and one beef, fries and a couple of drinks Almost £50. A bit steep for what it was.

An really lovely pub with accommodation and events space.We stayed here it was the venue for a wedding we were attending.The staff were fantastic and the accommodation was very fun - we stayed in one of the lodges in the garden. Well worth it - ours was called “Between the Lines”.Would definitely look to visit again in the especially in the summer.

Great pub with lots of character and an open fire. Friendly staff.Also really appreciate the variety of non-alcoholic beers. Glad to see that they did not have 'Becks Blue', which is often what many pubs have.

We stayed in Ticehurst for a few days and visited The Bell Inn for Sunday lunch. Wow ! Greeted by very friendly staff and shown to a cosy table with a log fire roaring near by. I rarely write reviews but felt that the service and food here were that incredible it deserves one. The roast beef and veg were to die for and plenty of amazing gravy. The deserts were just as lovely and obviously the chef knows what they are doing .. sticky toffee pudding the best I’ve ever had!! The service was brilliant and attentive. The pub is very dog friendly which suited us. Overall a wonderful experience and will return when we come back to the area..Congratulations to the team at The Bull Inn

We came for the New Year's Eve dinner while staying elsewhere in the village. A wonderful seven course taster meal, we both tried everything and enjoyed even the things that 'on paper' we wouldn't usually go for, it was all beautifully prepared. Very good wine selection. The staff were lovely and couldn't do enough for you despite being short-staffed. Came back for a drink a few nights later and very cosy atmosphere in a lovely building. Absolutely recommend.
