Apparently, The Bell in Ticehurst has a new page. The old one went missing, never to be found again. Like our new page to stay updated with curious events and happenings, live music and comedy nights!

The story of The Bell stretches back to 1560 when it was a coaching inn. We have smoothed out the rougher edges but preserved the wonderful imperfections that somehow make it perfect. We would be delighted to have your company.

Say nightie night and kiss me at The Bell this Winter

It may be Black Friday, but at The Bell we’re dreaming of something a little sweeter than new appliances and electrical goods…

Say nightie night and kiss me and dream a little dream in one of our curiously eccentric rooms with our fabulous offer of 30% off all rooms, bed and breakfast, for stays in January and February.

Choose from seven individually designed rooms over the pub, each with its own silver birch tree. Or spoil yourself in one of our fantastical garden lodges set around the fire pit, and all with private outdoor space. Some of our rooms have deep copper baths, village or garden views and all have sinfully comfortable king-size or super king-size beds with handmade mattresses and our own Love & More range of toiletries. Dogs are warmly welcomed at The Bell so feel free to bring your pooch with you, just tell us on booking so we can prepare your room.

Terms and conditions: this offer is only valid between Friday 25th November and Monday 28th November for stays between 1st January and 28th February 2023. Book direct through The Bell’s website, or over the phone using the Promo Code BFRI. Rooms are to be pre-paid on booking and are non-refundable upon cancellation.

We’re delighted to see that the .standard included in a piece on perfect pubs to finish at on a country walk this autumn 🍻

‘One of the prettiest pubs on the outskirts of Bedgebury in the village of Ticehurst is The Bell Inn… it’s practically pulsating with period charm; picture roaring fireplaces, comfy leather armchairs, low hanging beams and bouquets of wildflowers adorning the tables’

There’s no stopping the sparkling rise of the English wine industry and Chapel Down offers one of the very best expressions, with an award-wining range of sparkling and still wines.

It’s conker season and sweater weather and that means it’s definitely the return of the Great Sunday Roast.

Fine dining with extra Bacon?

Art has always been a hugely important part of The Bell, with an eclectic mix of modern and classical pieces from sculpture to paintings to objects on most walls and surfaces, including some surprising places!

To give even more atmosphere to the beautiful Stables for our eight-week pop fine dining experience, an original Francis Bacon triptych has been hung.

Painted by Bacon in 1988, the three paintings are a riot of reds and oranges; part man, part beast, these howling creatures have been described as vengeful Greek Furies.

There’s nothing subtle about this thought provoking piece and will certainly be a conversation starter! Have you seen them yet? Did you love or loathe?

Reservations are open now for The Stables, until 10 November. Book now not to miss out.

Do you know your Back Straight from your Cut in the Ground? 🐎
We had terrific fun naming the new cocktails on the aperitif menu for The Stables. Start the five-course tasting menu dinner with a ‘Grand National’ made with coconut rum and cherry liqueur or an on-the-home-straight ‘Kentucky Derby’, made with bourbon, sherry and violet liqueur. Pictured here is the ‘Royal Ascot’, a fine blend of sparkling wine, fig liqueur and syrup, made from the leaves of the huge fig tree in the garden, dry martini and lemon juice.
Which cocktail would you choose?🍸

We’re looking forward to launching The Stables at The Bell, our new fine-dining experience. The pop-up residency has been created by head chef Mark Charker and will run for eight weeks only.
Autumn is a beautiful season with many of the summer vegetables and fruits still around but we’re also seeing the start of the mushroom and game season. It’s the best of both worlds! 🍂
The Stables will be the perfect dining choice if you’re looking for something truly special. Launching on Tuesday 20th, reservations open now
