ABOUT
US |
|
Beginning life as a coaching
inn in the 15th century, The Bell’s sense of history is enhanced by the
fact that the hotel retains much of its original character and is even
said to be haunted. Enjoy a warm and welcoming ambience with good
English food in the restaurant and traditional ales in the bar. The Bell
is also famous as the home of Dad’s Army, with its surroundings
featuring in many episodes. |

Thetford
town used to be the religious capital of East Anglia
and parts of the Tudor style Bell Hotel
building date back to 1469, with older parts underneath dating to the
11th Century. Haunted by two ghosts, 'Busy Radcliff' and a
monk, the old building is truly genuine. Locals find the Bell Hotel
an ideal place to meet up for a chat and quiet drink. Food in the
hotel is mouthwatering and all professionally prepared from fresh
ingredients with an extensive main menu available along with our Specials Board. Our very large Norfolk fish and chips are not to be
missed. Your meal can be accompanied by one of our fine wines from a
wide selection. Visitors will find the atmosphere here warm and friendly and
the whole place very cosy. With 46 comfortable, homely en-suite
rooms we are the ideal place to stay, with some bedrooms having their own
balcony. Our feature four poster rooms are a cut above the rest,
coming with DVD players. The four function rooms hold from 12 to 70 people
seated and
can be used for celebrations such as wedding receptions, birthdays and
christenings. For meetings we can provide you with conference
facilities such as OHP, screen, flipchart, TV and video. The
friendly, helpful staff will always be here to
welcome you to the Bell Hotel and look forward to
seeing you soon. |
