Wonderful venue for a reunion

What a gorgeous house, well appointed and located just outside Nailsworth - about a10 minute drive. Really comfy and homely for all its size. Wonderful beds and linen, plentiful wood for the fires. A particular shout out to Joe and Jen who looked after us brilliantly

Excellent place to stay for multiple guests and dog in a rural setting. House keepers were only too happy to help with problems. But TV reception in living room was temporarily blocked due to fault.

Great weekend

A group of us travelled to the Cotswolds for memories and a nostalgic experience. The Bell House was excellent…..spacious, clean, incredibly well equipped and comfortable. All five of us were delighted and would definitely recommend it for a stay in a beautiful part of the country. A host of restaurants, historic buildings and walks are a short drive away…as is Forest Green Rovers football stadium

A delightful location

Bell House is situated in a delightful location with lovely walks from the front door. We enjoyed lovely weather so made the most of sitting in the court yard. The property was very clean with comfy beds and the added bonus of a ground floor bedroom and bathroom. Having three facilities enabled us to enjoy 3 generations of our family all being together.

Perfect weekend getaway

This was our second time staying at Bellhouse, as a group of friends with babies and two dogs. We all love it; it’s comfortable, warm, clean, and has everything you need. The walks around Woodchester park are stunning and the whole place feels special. We will be back next year!

We found the quintessential place to stay in the Cotswolds. Great for an extended family trip. Plenty of room for 3 generations to relax and enjoy seeing each other. The hiking trails out the front door were great. Lots of things to do reasonably close by. Had fun exploring the area. Day trips to Bath, Stonehenge, Bibury, Woodchester Mansion, Berkeley Castle & Tyndale Monument were a few of places we adventured off to

Familiar holiday in the Cotswolds

This property is just as beautiful and spacious and cool as it appears in the pictures. We had such a good time here. So relaxing, close to Great, Hikes, lakes, sheep, scenery of all sorts. We walked into nails, worth a couple of times, and had dinner in Nympsfield at Amalfi and it was wonderful. My husband and I took our for college age daughters and everyone had a great time. This property is fabulous.

Perfect stay in Cotswold countryside

We are a family of six and loved the spacious vacation home, a full wing of Woodchester Park House. Coming from Germany, we loved the very British experience of a very nicely decorated and very well equipped house at the end of a small road which ensured complete quietness in the great Cotswold nature. The hiking trails into the Woodchester Park, where the Bellhouse is located, belong to the most recommended in Cotswold. The very nearby Woodchester Mansion has been featured in some movies and series like The Crown.

The Bellhouse

The Bellhouse was lovely. A wonderful rural retreat - such a shame we were only there for 2 nights but we would love to return. It was lovely and spacious for 8 people and although being a very old property it was so cosy & warm. There was plenty of hot water & both showers were great. I run holiday cottages so know that cleanliness, warmth & plenty of hot water are key! I am originally from the area & it was lovely to return - there is so much to do & see locally. Hopefully we will be back!

Wonderful

A fabulous house for all generations to enjoy. The grandchildren loved the zipwire, we all loved the walk down to the lakes and the garden was a joy to sit in. Be aware places to eat locally seem to close Mon/Tues eve however the Amalfi in Nailsworth is a great Italian, fab food and service. The local pub closed at 9.30 on a Saturday night, not sure whether this is a one off.
