Old Bell Hotel

Built in 1220 and reputed to be the oldest purpose built hotel in England, The Old Bell Hotel is still offering quintessentially English warmth, comfort and hospitality nearly eight hundred years later. Standing alongside Malmesbury's medieval Abbey, in England's first capital, the hotel provides outstanding levels of service and retains the ambience of a bygone age. Ideally located on the edge of the Cotswolds, Malmesbury provides the ideal base for touring. Bath, Cheltenham and Bristol are under half an hour from us, Bourton on the Water, Broadway and the Slaughters are under 45 minutes, whilst Oxford and Stratford are less than one hour. The residences of Prince Charles and Princess Anne are also close by.
