So many things… Firstly, the staff were superb - friendly and professional and clearly proud of the business . The room was large, spotlessly clean, beautifully furnished and very comfortable and with everything we needed. The car park is large with plenty of space. As we were leaving early first morning for a local airshow, we were provided the night before with a delicious continental breakfast so we didn’t miss out (the room has a fridge, microwave and plates and crockery etc.). Cooked breakfast the second morning is the best we’ve ever had - superb. Absolutely faultless two night stay.

Stayed after attending RIAT 2025. Bit of a pain to get to but that was because of the one way system not the location. Beautiful setting in and around beautiful sandstone finished buildings with a spacious car park and excellent welcoming locals and staff. Booked in with a later check-in time and a meal and the food was fantastic, smallish menu but great sounding meals from top to bottom along with a specials board. Local brewery beers to go with the generics on draft was a massive plus and at a reasonable price too. The room seemed to have every mod-con including Free WiFi and a lovely touch of lights in the skirting boards around the bathroom so there was no need to put the light on with a late night pee! The included breakfast was beautiful

A small amount of noise from outside around 2200 as we were winding down to go to sleep from a generator or electric pump below us but on the outside.

Sapperton is a pretty little village and very quiet. The Bell was welcoming and comfortable and the rooms were big enough for a short stay and well equipped. The beds were very comfortable. The standard of cleanliness was excellent and the staff were very friendly and helpful. Breakfast was freshly cooked to order with plenty of fresh coffee and tea. All in all, a delightful pub.

The only thing that some guests might wish to be aware of is that, being a very old pub, there are a few steps here and there downstairs. It was fine for us and we loved the higgledy-piggedly layout of the pub.

The Sapperton suite is beautifully decorated & roomy. We welcomed the mini kitchen area as we had our little dog with us and could keep his food chilled. Also handy for cold drinks as we visited during the heatwave. Spacious bathroom with bath and separate shower. Ate in restaurant twice and food was exceptional. Breakfast was included and again plenty of choice and delicious. Staff were so friendly & accommodating and all prepared to go the extra mile to make our stay one to remember.

Nothing everything was lovely!

Set in a beautiful Cotswolds village location. The rooms are fitted to a really high standard and style that respects the building. The Sunday Lunch was amazing, Breakfast was also a great treat, the local ingredients and level of cooking making it notable. The wine selection available to see and take away from the wine wall is a great idea, reasonably priced and the owner and team are very knowledgeable about the wine have visited most vineyards. The team who run the Bell have a great rapport, and make you feel very welcome. This is special pub that will help you escape to the country even if it's just one night.

The only thing missing was the robes in the room, not an issue for me but my partner loves a robe.

The bar is excellent, serving well kept local draught beer and a superb 'barrel aged' Negroni. The restaurant has a fantastic ambience made all the better by the log burners, good food and superb wine wall! Best of all is the cooked vegetarian breakfast, which looks and tastes as good if not better than the traditional breakfast. There are good walking routes direct from the pub that combine the peace and quiet and great scenery with the facsinating history surrounding the Sapperton Tunnel and the Thames and Severn Canal.

Beautiful inn, lovely comfortable seating with considerate spacing between tables, all kept in line with originality of the inn. Food is absolutely superb, everything cooked perfectly and delicious. Extensive wine list and everything so reasonably priced. Staff are warm, friendly, welcoming and helpful. Our room was also beautiful, clean and very comfortable, added bonus of a small kitchenette area with a wine cooler fridge and a microwave, beautiful views of the lovely garden area. Complete peace and quiet at night, an absolute treat. We will definitely be back 🙂

Nothing ! It was perfect

Beautiful location, very convenient for where we were visiting. We weren’t able to book a table for an evening meal due to not knowing our return time, but Simon made it his mission to accommodate us when we did turned up, even though they were fully booked. We have booked to go back next year.

Nothing really, just finding our way around inside the pub to the guest rooms was a bit confusing, but not a huge problem.

Quintessential Cotwolds, homely, tasteful decour, good selection of bar drinks and genuinely friendly staff. We stayed in the Sapperton room and it was everything we'd hoped it would be. The full English breakfast composed of many, quality ingredients, that will last you until lunch, and again the morning staff were lovely. We had a one night stay to relax and get away from the job/kids and I can honestly say it was just the ticket.

There's nothing here I would write, as I would only be trying to find something to fill the box.

Besides being a perfect little Inn it was truly an experience! Cannot say enough about the staff we got to know, Nick, Andrea, Richard, Sienna, Bianca, Ella and all the back of the house staff that we didn’t meet but made sure that everything went smoothly! The food was amazing and breakfast was beyond anyone could have wanted! Will treasure our stay forever in the Cotswold! Do not hesitate to book here! You will thank me while having a beverage by the fireplace in their ever so cute pub!!
