The Lydden Bell

The room was spacious , quiet, warm and very comfortable. The bathroom had a good shower, toiletries and a hand rail for avoiding those slips when getting out of the bath! The bed had lovely linen and was very comfortable. The staff member we met was very helpful and the breakfast had some locally sourced ingredients. All set in delightful countryside with plenty of parking. Great value

We were here overnight before getting the Euro tunnel and what a pleasant surprise this turned out to be! The room in the annexe was lovely; clean and beautifully warm. Instant hot water was a massive plus! The real surprise though was the food. It was truly excellent and really plentiful. Sarah and the other staff members were so attentive too. We will definitely return the next time we use the Tunnel.

Beautiful place to stay, Very modern clean room & bathroom, tastefully decorated, The bed was super comfy with lovely fresh linen, dressing gown & slippers were provided which is a great addition as many b&bs do not provide these, The room was cosy & had underfloor heating, The Staff were all friendly & helpfully, We booked a table for 13 last minute & even though the pub was very busy with people eating they accommodated us all, the service was spot on & food delicious all my guests commented on how lovely their food was, great job at such short notice, A beautiful friendly country pub in a lovely village with hill & counrty side views, would highly recommend as a place to stay & eat,

We found this little gem to stay at whilst visiting family. Rooms were very comfortable clean and had everything you needed for an overnight stay. We had a table booked for dinner. Food was excellent, reasonably priced and the staff were brilliant despite them being left short staffed due to illness. We will use them again if down this way.

I don't normally write reviews but the Lydden Bell experience was so exceptional that I could not resist. The accommodation [Room 1] was very nicely presented and has obviously been revamped recently, in a nice easy-on-the-eye style. Very functional and perfectly adequate for the 3 nights we stayed, using it as a base to visit nearby places of interest. The food was exceptional too. Obviously using quality ingredients, all meals were stunningly good and the breakfasts too. Usually a 3 night stay can result in running out of preferences in the menu but certainly not here - I could have lasted a week! An astonishingly good and varied menu which caters for everyone. It is a shame that it is too far from Cambridgeshire to pop down. The Lydden Bell is now going to be the preferred places to stay when visiting this county in the future!

Hidden little gem in a beautiful spot. Well appointed rooms in barn next-door. Very modern bathroom, but no loo roll holder…! We also couldn’t fathom how to open the window! In any case, comfortable bed and well deserved rest after a long journey. In the morning excellent breakfast with particularly good hash browns, served by a nice waitress.
