The Bell & Stuart House

Lovely little find in the beautiful village of Stowe. Comfortable room, clean and well stocked with coffee, tea and even biscuits for the dog. A well stocked mini bar too. We stayed in the Stuart rooms about 200 yards down from the pub. Breakfast in the pub was lovely. Fairly priced and a great location for walks and surrounding villages. Nice toiletries and great shower. Easily walkable to lo lovely shops, pubs and restaurants. Would definitely stay again.

The hotel room was excellent and the bar and restaurant were also excellent. However, parking was an issue. No parking at property and the town pay carpark was full.

We stayed in a separate building a couple of minutes walk from the main building which wasnt a problem once we found if and the room was lovely(room was called Dog) There was ample private parking which was a bonus as the main building had limited spaces.Breakfast was superb with plenty of choice and friendly service.Couldnt fault and would definitely return

Great place with super friendly staff, good food and chill pub area

Amazing property in Stow. Very modern, clean, great service, and parking.

A lovely warm cosy hospitable hotel . Stow on the Wolds a gem of a town , would definitely recommend The Bell a spot on evening meal complements to the Chef, staff very welcoming even got greeted parking the car . Room very comfortable and well equipped and a good breakfast to start the day will definitely return thank you

Great stay at the Bell, fabulous room, great team, good quality food and drink options

Our room was in a seperate unmanned building 300 meters up the road. Our first room was up a very narrow spiral staircase. We were moved to a downstairs room very close to the road. Breakfast was back down the hill in the Bell building (my wife wasn't prepared to do that and were refunded for her breakfasts). Rooms were well equiped and decorated and toiletries were provided, large walk in shower, car parking was provided free.

Was a great stay. Tiny tiny room but with everything I needed. Quite cosy actually ( the dormouse room). Staff were great, parking easy

Superb place to stay. The main inn/pub is near the centre of Stow and serves super food. There is a small courtyard development 100m up the road, which is where I stayed in an upgraded room. The staff are great, and I would highly recommend this as a place to stay - I was very impressed.

It was a lovely stay but needs to be clearer that the Bell accommodation is the pub and Stuart House is up the hill c100metres away. The room was clean and very quaint. It was up a very narrow steep staircase - only a few steps it still quite steep. Staff nice and friendly and good breakfast in the pub!

The room we stayed in was really lovely and the staff were very friendly. Would recommend staying here.

The hotel was nicely decorated and the food was delicious. It included any hot food for breakfast from the pub kitchen which was very good. Friendly and helpful staff. It's not the easiest place to find with the navigation. The water bottle in the room was not clean.

Be aware that the room we were in wasup some very tight,steep with a twist stairs. No good if you have any mobility issues. Room was an annexed builing a 5-10 min walk from The Bell but it's literally in the centre of Stow so a great location. The Mrs wasn't so impressed with the access and the spiderwebs so i decided not to mention the urine stains on the toilet rim. I choose not to complain as overall i was happy with the room

We stayed here for one night. The room in the Bell was really nice and the staff could not have been more friendly and helpful. We received very warm welcome on arrival and the staff were lovely throughout the stay. The food was very good too. I would definitely recommend this as a place to stay.

Had a lovely stay at The Bell at Stow. The hotel is full of character and charm, with beautifully kept rooms that feel cosy yet refined. We did notice the sheets weren’t clean upon arrival, but this was quickly addressed by the staff, who handled it promptly and professionally. Service overall was warm and welcoming, and the atmosphere felt relaxed and homely. Its central location in Stow-on-the-Wold makes it a perfect base for exploring the Cotswolds. Despite the small hiccup, it was a pleasant stay and one we’d happily return to.

Really enjoyed our stay at the Stuart house. Clean, nice bathroom and a complimentary night cap was a nice touch. Loved Stow and this is in a great spot close to the town centre.

Lovely Time away in the Stuart House part of the Bell at Stow, Food was great , room was comfortable and clean.

We was originally booked into a boutique room in the Stuart House. First impressions the room was lovely and well presented and we couldn't wait for our 3 night stay.After getting unpacked and settled I went to have a shower and the water was cold. I rang The Bell and a gentleman came over within 15 minutes. I got the impression he thought I was being picking. He rang the shower for a little while and tried to tell me it was warming up, it was barely tepid. I told him its too cold to shower in so he offered us a "superior" room in The Bell for the night. So we had to repack and walk up the road in the rain fairly late at night. The gentleman was waiting for us and said the room was ours for the rest of the stay and made some other comment which given the situation I did'nt appreciate his attitude. Straight away we felt our new room was a down grade from what we had left, the bathroom and shower was tiny, you had to be careful how you dried yourself as you would knock things. The room could have been cleaner. Dust on bed throw and cushions. Dust on all the lamps and sockets. Other peoples toothpaste spits on the tiles in the bathroom.We should have said something but we felt we couldn't. I feel that we have spent a lot of money (£562) on 3 nights for something that wasn't worth that amount. Having said that breakfast was good with a great selection and the others ladies that work there that I saw was really good, very friendly and helpful and worked very hard

Well preserved historical building. Room and therefore the bed were very small.

I imagine when the room was first created it would have looked brilliant. Over time, it is starting to look a little tired and could do with a freshen up. Bed is really comfortable. Coffe machine didnt work and also Sky tv was offered in the pamphlet but could not access it.

Plenty of free parking out the front and the design of the room was beautiful, if a little tatty. Absolutely no sound proofing between rooms though so barely slept due to noise levels in the evening and very loud vacuuming noise early in the morning. I'm a heavy sleeper but this was too much even for me.

The room was not where we checked in and quite inconvenient to have to walk to a different location. It was unacceptably small. We only had backpacks but if you had a suitcase you couldn’t have fitted it anywhere! The bathroom however was fine.

Rooms were lovely and decorated to a high standard however there is no sound proofing between the pub and your room. You could hear conversations of those in the pub below but it did quiet down at 11 which wasn’t too bad. Unfortunately there are also rooms above which have a very squeaky floor/bed which woke us up multiple times in the night even when sleeping with ear plugs. I do appreciate it’s a beautiful old pub but they do need to try and do something about the noise.

Noisy outside fan on outside Builder banging above dining room while having breakfast Room so small Had to climb over bed to get into shower room !!

Nice country pub but very nosy stay. You could hear every conversation from downstairs in the bar - thankfully it went quiet at 11.15pm

This is a charming property, with one drawback. If your room is in the Stuart House annex, be aware that the ceilings are low and in particular the doorways are very low. If you are tall, it is easy to bump your head on them, inspite of the posted warnings

The Bell at stow was fabulous and the lovely lady member of staff who we dealt with on two occasions was brilliant. The room was beautifully decorated and very clean. The only downside was the size of the room ( squirrel). The room was very small and by no means suitable for a couple to share, I would say more appropriate for single occupancy. Location wise perfect for shopping and visiting other areas within the Cotswolds,

Our room was in a seperate unmanned building 300 meters up the road. Our first room was up a very narrow spiral staircase. We were moved to a downstairs room very close to the road. Breakfast was back down the hill in the Bell building (my wife wasn't prepared to do that and were refunded for her breakfasts). Rooms were well equiped and decorated and toiletries were provided, large walk in shower, car parking was provided free.

The management were most accommodating and gave us an excellent upgrade because they were not busy. The Pub downstairs was very friendly and the town is very quaint.

We stayed here for one night. The room in the Bell was really nice and the staff could not have been more friendly and helpful. We received very warm welcome on arrival and the staff were lovely throughout the stay. The food was very good too. I would definitely recommend this as a place to stay.

It was a pleasure to stay. The staff upgraded our room on arrival and gave us a feeling that we were important to them. The room was comfortable and the mini bar was a nice throwbacks touch. Only thing lacking was the shower cap for my wife.

Check in was brilliant. The staff allowed us to check in very early and get ready for a wedding we were attending near by. We were given complementary drinks, which was very kind of them. Our room was decorated beautifully with all of the amenities you’d need for a few nights stay. I feel like the breakfast could’ve been better. The only juice available was apple. The only fruit was watermelon or banana. A wider selection of juices and fruit, along with some pastries, would make it the perfect breakfast. The cooked breakfast was cooked perfectly (although slightly greasy for my liking.) Overall a very enjoyable stay. Thank you for having us we will definately be back :)

Amazing property in Stow. Very modern, clean, great service, and parking.

Has a lovely stay. Room great. Breakfast was really good. Staff friendly.

We arrived to find the hotel was closed for refurbishment! We booked this in December, drove over 3 hrs and no one thought to let us know! We are 2 pensioners in their 70’s and were left stranded with no accommodation, disgraceful service!!

Arrived at around 8.50pm checked in & told I was in an annexe - given the key & a tiny map - 10 wins walk back up the hill in the dark & drizzle - key didn't work - tried to call the maIN HOTEL reception - answer phone, eventually spoke to the human - why did she send you there . . . walked back down the hill, offered the smallest room ever - superb decor, but no space to swing a dormouse (the name of the room) luckily chef stayed on 35 mins & cooked some lovely chicken Kiev, didn't bother with breakfast - at £30 too rich even for my business expenses

Highly recommend this property. I was at Stuart House which is a short walk from the Inn. It was charming and had everything I needed. The team were gracious and friendly.

Would have been 5/5 however not hot water for the entire stay. When we asked we were told the water had been turned on however it hadn’t. We then were offered a full refund and a week later I see money has been taken from my account with no approval for 50% of the room. Really wanted to recommend this place as it could be so lovely but staff and service really lets it down!

It was a lovely stay but needs to be clearer that the Bell accommodation is the pub and Stuart House is up the hill c100metres away. The room was clean and very quaint. It was up a very narrow steep staircase - only a few steps it still quite steep. Staff nice and friendly and good breakfast in the pub!

Great property and within easy distance of Cotswold main villages and sites.

Fantastic stay . Presented BETTER than pics online . Great atmosphere . Beautiful food at reasonable price . 2 min walk to village .staff friendly . Visually beautifully presented

Great accommodations. Close to everything in town

We actually stayed in the Stuart House that’s up the street from The Bell. So don’t know how the rooms are in The Bell, but would devotedly recommend the Stuart House property.

Great room, stunning location

Superb place to stay. The main inn/pub is near the centre of Stow and serves super food. There is a small courtyard development 100m up the road, which is where I stayed in an upgraded room. The staff are great, and I would highly recommend this as a place to stay - I was very impressed.

Staff were lovely. Room was very comfortable. Food was not good and expensive for pub food. Breakfast table had rotten bananas. Toast was soggy (eggs had not been drained). Evening meal was lacking flavour.

The hotel room was excellent and the bar and restaurant were also excellent. However, parking was an issue. No parking at property and the town pay carpark was full.

How can you not like a place where the rooms are named after animals? If I had a choice I'd have gone for dormouse, owl or stag, but Pheasant was good too. It was cosy, and the bed was comfy. And there was a bookshelf on the landing which was perfect for bookworms like me. I ate in the pub, and had the tastiest bangers and mash that I've had in a long time. Would certainly recommend.

Good location, good food, friendly staff

A lovely warm cosy hospitable hotel . Stow on the Wolds a gem of a town , would definitely recommend The Bell a spot on evening meal complements to the Chef, staff very welcoming even got greeted parking the car . Room very comfortable and well equipped and a good breakfast to start the day will definitely return thank you

Great stay at the Bell, fabulous room, great team, good quality food and drink options

The location was very good and the food at the bell was fantastic
