  • 14 bedrooms

Sleep, dine and explore beautiful Stow-on-the-Wold

The Bell stands right in the heart of Stow-on-the-Wold, and is made for those wonderfully unhurried Cotswold breaks where days revolve around country walks, long lunches and great beer. This characterful pub has 14 individually styled boutique bedrooms, with five tucked above the pub and a further nine at Stuart House, a short stroll along the High Street. Best of all is the location. Stow’s antique shops, galleries, historic buildings and cafés are within wandering distance, while The Slaughters, Bourton-on-the-Water and the wider Cotswolds are close enough for easy days out. The Bell puts the pleasures of a classic Cotswold break almost entirely on the doorstep.
