The Experience

The position here is magical: an ancient stone bridge, a river snaking through the valley, glorious hills rising beyond, cows grazing in lush fields. It’s a perfect spot, not least because providence blessed it with this chic little place. Inside, you’ll find a long bar, well stocked with local wines and ales and an airy restaurant for excellent food. In summer, doors fly open and life spills onto a stone terrace with a pretty garden and views of the surrounding hills and woodland. Sit beside the river Monnow – a fine spot for lunch in the sun. Elegant country-house bedrooms brim with light. Some are beamed, most are big, you’ll find padded bedheads, Farrow & Ball colours, perhaps a walnut bed or a claw-foot bath in your room. Those at the front have river views, those at the back look onto the hills, some have sofas, all have robes in excellent bathrooms. Seven circular walks start at the front door with maps to show you the way. Delicious food awaits your return, perhaps Welsh rarebit with a poached egg, braised beef brisket with dauphinoise potatoes, apple doughnuts with toffee sauce and mulled cider.

Reviews

Such a relaxing break with beautiful surroundings. Maria and her team work tirelessly to provide a tip top service. Bedrooms are immaculate and comfortable. Public areas very colourful and stylish. Food is very delicious - menus reflect wide range of great local produce.

I didn’t stay overnight but I’ll definitely be back after a wonderful meal with family. We enjoyed drinks on the patio, looking out onto the well-kept garden and fields beyond before sitting down in the recently refurbished restaurant to enjoy a seasonal and locally sourced three course meal. Another great recommendation from Sawday’s!

Location

The neighbourhood

Local points of interest from Paula Snow

  • The village of Skenfrith has its own Norman Castle and an historic medieval church St. Bridget's. The Bell is just outside the village on the banks of the River Monnow which provides great riverside walking and further upstream fantastic fishing.
  • The Bell has created its 7 circular walks all of which start and finish at the inn. All have points of interest, maps and detailed instructions and drawings. We welcome pets and owners and have a Pooch Parlour and towels on site.
  • Walking is a favourite pastime of many guests plus cycling and car clubs who love the open-top motoring. The roads are quiet and wind through some of the country's most beautiful scenery. There are many beautiful gardens to visit in this part of Wales.
  • The Bell can help organise fishing trips in and around the area. Contact Reception for further details and how to apply for fishing licences. Monnow Events is close and great for stag and hen weekends. Call us for more information.
  • There are so many places to visit nearby that it is impossible to name them all. We are within easy reach of Hereford Cathedral which houses the Mappa Mundi and a signed Magna Carta. There are Marches castles and abbeys and Hay-on-Wye is 40 mins away.
  • The Bell is the perfect place for a small wedding and blessings may be organised in the medieval church of St. Bridget's. We have a lovely private room and our very pretty garden can provide the perfect backdrop for a special day and photos.
