    A wonderful, intimate wedding venue and experience for our big day!

    We got married at The Bell on a glorious, crisp, sunny, Saturday in September. We fell in love with The Bell when we viewed it back in May 2023. The eclectic vibes and warm, welcoming, and informal atmosphere made it a perfect fit for our big day. We knew we needed an intimate venue for our ceremony and reception for our close friends and family, and The Bell was perfect for this! In fact, several of our guests told us that it was one of the most beautiful and enjoyable weddings they'd ever been to. The Bell and its team helped create a truly joyful experience that will live long in our memories, and we hope our guests' too!

    Throughout the process, Becky and the team were brilliant, responsive, flexible to our requests, and provided guidance for every question that we had. A key part of what we wanted in our wedding was for the logistics of the day to be taken care of by professionals, so that we could be present with our friends and family. Becky, Jess, and the team at The Bell, ensured that things went off without a hitch and moved us through the day seamlessly and pleasantly.

    Situated in the picturesque village of Ticehurst, it's a beautiful venue with heaps of character, from the whimsical decor throughout to the cosy snug, a room which provides a place of calm during the day. We were lucky with the weather, which enabled us to take advantage of the lovely outdoor space, including the firepit in the evening.

    We were really impressed with the organisation and how they set up and turned around the rooms. Everything is taken care of for you. The food and drink, whilst a little pricey, is excellent, and several of our guests commented on how good it was.

    We'd really recommend going with their recommended suppliers. Andrea at The Art Bunch did fantastic flower arrangements for us, making an already beautiful venue into something even more special. Yvonne from Crumbs and Treacle also made a cake that was a feast for the eyes and for the stomach! They've curated a brilliant list of suppliers who are both exceptional professionals and lovely human beings.

    The whole package at The Bell, including their suggested suppliers, was perfect for what we wanted. And whilst we don't plan on getting married ever again, we highly recommend that anyone looking for this type of wedding, gets married here. Thank you so much to The Bell for helping us have the best day!!

    Kathryn and Lewis

    The best and only Wedding Venue you need

    The team at the Bell were incredibly professional, lovely and easy to work with from start to finish, in particular Becky & Jess although the whole team were fantastic. It is a beautiful venue, the food was outstanding and the whole day went like clockwork thanks to the brilliant Bell Team. We had an amazing time. Thank you :-)

    Fantastic!

    Just fantastic! From our initial enquiry, show round, booking the venue, menu tasting and the big day everything was perfect. Becky, Jess and the team did everything for us making the day a breeze. All of our guests commented on how great the venue was, and how brilliant the food was. Our day was fantatsic and I don’t doubt that was because of The Bell Team. I can not recommend this venue enough. I look forward to going back to celebrate our 1 year anniversary.

    The perfect wedding venue

    From the first day we viewed The Bell, to the food tastings, to the day of our wedding, we were incredibly well looked after by Becky, Jess and the team.
    We could not be more grateful for the experience we had - it was all very easy and helped us feel very relaxed on the day.
    Becky was always on hand to answer our questions and the team at The Bell worked seamlessly with our other suppliers to make our wedding day absolutely perfect.
    The food was delicious, the garden areas perfect for hosting and the rooms were a great talking point. All of our guests loved our wedding venue!
    The best part is that we can come back to stay time and time again – we cannot wait to come back!

    April Wedding

    We had the most beautiful wedding day, the staff were so helpful and amazing throughout the whole process. Becky was a huge help throughout the whole process, we didn't have much time to plan everything and she made it all so much easier for us in terms of planning the day there and recommendations for other suppliers. On the day all the staff were sensational and the food was outstanding and had such good feedback from everyone, everything went extremely smoothly so we could just enjoy our day without any stress! I could not recommend this place enough, it is so unique an a beautiful place to get married.

    Incredible & Unique Wedding Venue

    Wow, what can I say. My husband and I got married at The Bell in March 2024, and it was just the most spectacular day! From the moment we visited The Bell we instantly fell in love and knew it was the venue for us. With its unique quirks and charm, The Bell was the perfect place to host our big day. The team were brilliant, and seamlessly set everything up for us (albeit we had 100s of wedding props and accessories!) The food was absolutely amazing and the lodges and rooms just beautiful. We couldn’t have wished for a better day, thank you to The Bell!

    Just perfect!

    We got married at The Bell in February 2024 and we can honestly say choosing The Bell is the best decision we made. It was an absolutely fantastic day. The whole team were lovely & brilliant and nothing was too much trouble. Becky was amazing, so helpful and made sure we had everything we needed and her supplier recommendations were spot on. Jess ran the day perfectly and we didn’t have to worry about a thing. Marcus made us feel like we were more in a top London hotel with the service he gave rather than a quirky pub in the countryside. We stayed the night before too and had a relaxing dinner and it made it even more special our dog was able to be with us too. The atmosphere of The Bell was lovely, it looked great, the food was wonderful and so many of our guests and our photographer said what a great venue it was and how much they enjoyed the day. It was all just perfect!

    Highly recommend - best day of our lives!

    We got married at The Bell in November 2023 and it was honestly a flawless day. We went along the night before with our bridesmaids, groomsmen and parents for dinner and to stay over the night before and it was such a special evening. We felt very tended to! Then the day came around and from start to finish, we felt so stress-free and so like nothing was a problem, everything was taken out for our hands and we had a whole team that all helped to create the most perfect day! The team were all so friendly, approachable and helpful.
    In particular, my Dad has dementia and has some mobility issues - The Bell took note of this and really accommodated to make the whole day as easy as possible for him and as stress-free for myself and I will forever be grateful for this.
    It was the most beautiful day, and the communication in the lead up was amazing. I honestly felt no stress about the venue or food and drink after booking The Bell, everything was dealt with and thought of for us.
    Becky was incredible throughout the whole process! Josie, Oscar and Jon also all made the day so special and so enjoyable and of course all the rest of the team behind the day!
    Thank you so much to everyone at The Bell who gave us the best day of our lives!! Incredibly grateful and would recommend very very highly to anyone planning their wedding!

    A perfect quirky fairytale wedding at the Bell

    The Bell was a wonderful and magical wedding venue. Our wedding day there was absolutely incredible. Everything felt easy and was run like clockwork - from breakfast in bed to an ending by the firepit! The private spaces both upstairs and downstairs, as well as outdoors, are able to easily accommodate guests while making everyone feel at ease and welcome. The upstairs room is really special, and we got to be bathed in golden November light for our ceremony. The staff were incredibly helpful throughout the whole day - a special shout-out to Josie, who ran everything seamlessly, and to Oscar, who made our day by switching shifts to be with us! The food and drinks were exceptional - everyone commented on how talented the cooks were, and what a lovely and warm venue the Bell is. Absolutely recommend! We wish we could get married there again.

    Amelia & Rosie

    I think all our guests commented on what a cool and quirky venue The Bell is and how smoothly the day ran. We got married at The Bell on 3rd June 2023 and had the best day. The staff were absolutely brilliant and ensured the day ran like clockwork. They were friendly and attentive and went above and beyond to accommodate an unwell bridesmaid! A big shout out to Becky who was on hand to give advice and guidance whenever we needed it and ensured all our questions were answered. And also a big shout out to Jess who, along with Becky and the team, made the day what it was and put us at ease. Food was delicious, staff were excellent, venue was lovely and the day exceeded our expectations! Cannot recommend The Bell enough.
