The owner and the staff were really friendly and helpful. We were only there for 2 nights to attend a wedding in the locality, but we really enjoyed our stay there. Good food and beer were served.

Had the opportunity to go back to to my favourite stay in the reading area for a night, and as always it didn’t disappoint. A friendly welcome, comfy room, amazing pizza out in the garden. Can’t wait for my next stay

Memorable Stay

Our host Was very friendly, and went out of his way to ensure that our stay was comfortable. Wonderful scampi coming all the way from Brixham!

6/10 Good

Breakfast was non-existant although paid for. Was dissapointed to be told on arrival that what appeared from the website to be full english breakfast was in fact only going to be a continental breakfast which would be left in a small fridge upstairs. Was even more disappointed to find the fridge empty in the morning. Mis-selling breakfast left a stain on what was an otherwise great stay with great staff attention and good evening meal.

I've stayed at the 6 bells a couple of times and it is my favorite place to stay if I'm working in the area. Great food (the Pizza's are amazing), great staff and a beautiful location.

Absolutely fantastic stay at the Six Bells in the lovely village of Beenham. Great staff and a friendly welcome. Decent clean rooms with en suite and a hot shower. Plenty of free on site parking. Great food and one of the best breakfasts I have ever had. Great range of beers and spirits too. Would highly recommend.

Spent two great days at this B&B. It's off the main highways in a small village environment. Peaceful, quiet and relaxing. We had a warm welcome from the staff, who were helpful, friendly and made our stay relaxing. The room was large, clean and stocked with tea, coffee and water. The bed was comfortable and it was very quiet at night. The breakfast bun was amazing, the bacon and sausage tasted great. We had an evening meal which was also prepared and cooked well. I had home made Pizza (loads of toppings to choose from) and my wife had an amazing burger. All in all a great stay. Really Recommend this establishment, and I hope we've back again soon.
