We had a great stay and would recommend
We had a wonderful stay at Bells and would stay there again. The only negative comment we have about the hotel is that the walls are very thin and you can hear people walking in the corridor and talking in the adjoining rooms like they are sat next to you. Which when it’s a rowdy bunch of dudes on a golfing weekend means no sleep.

Friendly, welcoming and helpful Staff. Comfortable stay. Tasty Supper. Good Breakfast however the bread would have been better toasted underneath the smashed avocado and poached eggs which were exemplary. Thank you all. Best regards from Amanda

It was a nice room for what I needed but it was a little noisy.
You could hear door banging and unfortunately in the room I was in the people above moving around and the water pipes made a noise too.
When myself or someone else (don't know who) used the cold water be it by the tap or flushing the pipes would vibrate with a droning sound.

Lovely, relaxing stay, nice setting, gym was very clean and up to date equipment.
Only issue we had was we could hear next door talking. Very thin walls.
