At The Bell - Brunning and Price, guests frequently praise spacious, well-decorated rooms, friendly staff, and excellent pub food, noting a lively atmosphere and attractive outdoor areas, plus convenient access to Stratford-upon-Avon and generally high standards of cleanliness.
Common drawbacks include noise from the bar and nearby road, and some rooms have only skylights or feel warm on hot nights. While most service is warm and efficient, a few guests reported unwelcoming interactions or slow attention at busy times. Best suited to travellers comfortable with a busy pub setting.

Absolutely amazing stay again at The Bell. The staff are so lovely. We take our little Yorkshire terrier dog and he is made so welcome. They put him treats and a bed in our room..Gave us a bucket with bottle of prosecco to take up to our room at the end of the evening (Was celebrating our anniversary) The room is beautiful. Amazing double shower and roll top bath. Food at the Bell is brilliant and the breakfast is delicious. We absolutely love staying here. Always go for a nice walk and to the church then back to settle in front of the fire. There is nothing to fault at the Bell. Everything is perfect and the staff warm and friendly. Look forward to returning soon.

The Bell is presented well, Room was very nicely decorated , with some thoughtful touches , hairdryer in bag, iron and ironing board, and good quality toiletries … but a few housekeeping issues, blind on one window wasn’t working , one table lamp had a faulty bulb connection, really difficult to fill the large kettle in the small sink and only discovered very early on departure morning that there were no regular tea bags in the room ( too early to ask anyone for some as we were leaving very early, before breakfast service) sadly we found the room very noisy, both from the outside road and from the bar/ dining area downstairs, ( we asked to be moved but no other room option available) Disappointing as otherwise a well presented location…

Pub was really nice - lively atmosphere good food/drink and the staff were fantastic. Excellent service, very friendly and helpful staff. Loved outdoor area as well very close to Stratford upon Avon. Our rooms were well appointed, had everthing we needed, although could have been a little cleaner, but this was very quickly resolved. Only issue was noise in our bedroom, as we were above the bar and noise from a busy main road.

Breakfast was good. Room not great for a deluxe room, no window at all only a velux. Evening meal not and we were made to feel very unwelcome and told us they couldn't serve any more "walk ins" today. Explained we were staying there and that the person who checked us in sam we could come down for dinner up to 9pm (which it does say in the room brochure too) and it was only 7.30pm! Very reluctantly served us even though kitchen open until 8. The girl that served us was lovely, couldn't say the same for her colleagues. Won't be going again even though been going there for over 30 years.

Our room was lovely, clean and spacious with tea and coffee making facilities. Lovely clean towels and bedding and the shower gel, soap and shampoos were all very nice. Only down sides were that there was quite a lot of noise of doors closing and what sounded like barrels being moved from fairly early in the morning and the bar staff could have been a bit more welcoming. Well run, fun quiz on the Monday of our stay.

The food was exceptional, we had an evening meal and breakfast with timely service and attention to detail. We thought the whole experience of our stay was great and nothing was too much trouble. There was a Farmers Market on in the grounds when we were leaving which seemed to be going well and I'd imagine would bring in more customers. A great idea. Our bedroom was big with a big bathroom too, nice shower too. Lots of space, we had a comfortable night's sleep and even being over the pub and next to the road we didn't notice any noise in the later part of the night. We'd definitely recommend this lovely Pub with Rooms to anyone to stay. So glad we booked The Bell and thanks again to the manager and staff.

Great find! In easy reach of Stratford, we had a lovely big room and gigantic bathroom. Lovely tub. Only slight issue (and nothing the hotel can do) is the speeds cars do through the village at night, and on a warm day when you’re facing on to that road made for a broken nights sleep. Such a shame for the residents of Alderminster, I feel for you! However, would book again without hesitation. Lovely food in the pub, and great service from the staff.

A lovely hotel in a nice village, but only a 10 minute drive into Stratford upon Avon. The pub itself is charming and the evening food was delicious. I would really recommend the chilli crispy beef salad, yummy. We stayed on a Thursday and Friday night, but Friday was manic in the pub. It’s really popular and I preferred our more chilled evening on the Thursday. That said, the service was still good, just not as personal. Our room was lovely, very comfortable, excellent bed and linen. Very hot, but the radiators are easily adjusted. Breakfast was nice ,with a good choice. My only issue was that the bacon didn’t have much flavour. Service was also a bit more haphazard, for instance, we had to find some and ask for more coffee on both days. Not a problem,but maybe a bit more attention because everything else was lovely. We will definitely stay again when we are in the area. A real good find.
A lovely hotel in a nice village, but only a 10 minute drive into Stratford upon Avon. The pub itself is charming and the evening food was delicious.

Another great stop at a fantastic place staff excellent couldn't do enough for us. Fabulous breakfast with locally sourced produce. Lovely to sit in the courtyard area for afternoon drinks with a wonderful view over the Fields. A dog friendly place. Bus stop is a minutes walk away to get into Stratford upon Avon

Great find! In easy reach of Stratford, we had a lovely big room and gigantic bathroom. Lovely tub. Only slight issue (and nothing the hotel can do) is the speeds cars do through the village at night, and on a warm day when you’re facing on to that road made for a broken nights sleep. Such a shame for the residents of Alderminster, I feel for you! However, would book again without hesitation. Lovely food in the pub, and great service from the staff.

Everything was excellent. We stayed one night & didn’t get the breakfast included. Had dinner which I can thoroughly recommend. The breakfast we decide to get too was great. Setting lovely, wasn’t able to eat outside but wish we could have. If we are in the area again we will definitely book. Room super, only prob we had heating on high but sorted that.

Great stay at the Bell , room was ready before check in time. The pub it self is lovely and has lots of character to it! The rooms little small but cosy and up to a good standard ,the room was clean and was tidy everything we went to breakfast which a good touch. Breakfast was delicious and made fresh , the service was really good. Location only 10 mins away from Stratford centre.

I really enjoyed my stay. great pub, really great rooms.I can definitely recommend the Bell. Dinner was great, wine list extensive, atmosphere perfect. The only thing I didn't enjoy was the loud soul music played at at breakfast. No-one needs Marvin Gaye and Barry White at 7:30 am! Its not a disco! Breakfast in a quiet country pub should be a tranquil start to the day. if you must have music maybe some gentle Mozart, but better still, none at all!

Lovely place to stay, very cosy and inviting. The rooms are excellent and represent really good value for money. Because we stayed on a Sunday evening, it was a slightly reduced menu and a couple of things weren't available, but what we did have was really good. Breakfast is fab, all local proce and well cooked. It is our 3rd time here and I would definitely recommend it.

Lovely stay. Very busy at the bar when we arrived but the staff were quick and professional. The best Sunday meal I’ve had in a long time. Breakfast was perfect and service from many different staff was superb.

Room 1 bedroom has no windows and no fresh air. It was given to a couple staying for 4 nights!! To replace it for the remaining 3 nights we were placed in the front room 6 on the main road. The staff didn't provide a welcome nor any care for our comfort. When asked for a box of tissues, it was not provided. Obviously the bar traffic makes up for poor attention to detail to those staying in the bedrooms. As for the food, the Chicken Milanese was cooked twice and like leather. Even the salad portions were poor. We do not recommend this tavern for overnight stays, despite the obvious closeness to so many beautiful Cotswold villages and other venues. The lunch service and food was good.

The bed was too soft, not very comfortable. Had to keep the windows open at night due to the heat but our room faced the road so it was quite noisy. The bathroom was very spacious and nice big fluffy towels provided.
