Great initial welcome from Mike, backed up by some wonderful idiosyncratic features that uplifted the stay. Complimentary Sipsmiths Sloe Gin in the room, choice of two single malt whiskies (also complimentary) and freshly brewed coffee at the refreshments station were unexpected and warmly enjoyed! Restaurant and bar staff were very helpful and food preparation and presentation were excellent. The breakfast of blueberry pancakes were the prettiest presentation we've ever seen.

Beautiful hotel, recently renovated which means they have state of the showers, beautiful throws and proper duvets, spotless white gorgeous bedding, fantastic decor throughout the hotel. The rooms are separated slightly from the fullers pub with a separate entrance. The breakfast was fabulous where you can order from a menu and food is made to order and fresh, included full English breakfast, eggs florentine, pancakes with fruit and maple syrup, porridge with fresh fruit. Fresh fruit and cereals...

Stay here for 3 nights, spotless clean and very good size room, breakfast good quality and might be a bit expensive for some. I'd definitely stay again

Its great to find a hotel you can stay for just one night over the weekend. I was looking for somewhere close to London (34 miles away), with great reviews, good food and accommodation and places to visit nearby. The Bel and Dragon had all of that. The room was tastefully furnished (with free sloe gin - added bonus!) and the hotel was cosy and characterful. We enjoyed a drink in the bar and a great dinner (although I noticed the bar food also looked enticing. There is a snug for hotel guests...

We had a lovely one night stay here. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. The room was clean, a large shower room, and a very comfortable bed. We had dinner there and the food was lovely. The breakfast was included and also good - the chef came to take our orders for cooked food, and was very accommodating.

Bit off the beaten track but well worth making the diversion for. Staff very hospitable. Room clean with welcoming chocolates and a decanter with a decent measure of whiskey. Bed comfortable and bathroom stocked with necessities. Food first class and a good selection of beers and ales. Ideal for business to unwind (good wifi all over). Good for romantic ramblers/cyclists.

The best time to go to Frensham is generally during the late spring and summer months, from May to September, to fully enjoy the outdoor activities and natural beauty of the area.
During these months, the weather is typically warmer and drier, making it ideal for exploring Frensham Ponds and the surrounding countryside. You'll find the heathlands and woodlands at their most vibrant, great for walking, cycling, or simply relaxing by the water. There are also more opportunities for outdoor events and local markets during this period.
For those who enjoy water-based activities like paddleboarding or swimming, July and August offer the warmest water temperatures at Frensham Great Pond. The longer daylight hours also allow for extended enjoyment of the outdoors.
If you prefer a quieter experience with pleasant walking weather, May, June, and September are excellent choices. The crowds are generally smaller than in the peak summer months, but the weather remains comfortable for outdoor pursuits.
