Our stay at the Six Bells was perfect. We only booked for one night as we had a gig at Wasing, but had a fantastic stay. Staff and rooms were all lovely, wouldn’t hesitate to book again.

The location is beautiful in the Berkshire countryside. There is off road parking and the staff are very friendly and helpful. The room was quite adequate for our needs, clean and tidy, with a fan for the very hot weather - quite welcome! A good selection of drinks available. We didn't eat there, so cannot comment. A nice, quiet, short and inexpensive stay and have no hesitation in recommending the Six Bells.
