    Gorgeous, unique venue

    We were so pleased that we chose The Bell for our wedding. The venue is utterly charming, elegantly rustic, and perfect for an Autumn wedding. We didn’t have to stress about the weather because indoors is so cosy. All our guests raved about the venue - they were comfortable and had a lot of fun exploring the quirky artwork. When the sun came out, we were able to spill out into the gardens, and in the evening we could enjoy sparklers and s’mores around the fire pit.

    We were so grateful for all the work the team put into making the day special. They were attentive, professional, and invested in ensuring everything ran smoothly. We had an absolute blast and so did our guests. The Bell will always now be a special venue for us and we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend it to other couples planning their wedding

    Friendly staff, delicious food, and a memorable day!

    Everything that The Bell provided far exceeded our already high expectations, and we couldn't have asked for a more perfect day. The venue is unique, quirky, and cosy, making it ideal for our autumn wedding. Since it is already a beautiful space, we didn't need to add many extra decorations to make it feel special.

    From our first meeting, the staff were friendly, helpful, and accommodating. Becky was our main contact leading up to the wedding, and she was kind and responsive; nothing was too much trouble.

    On the day itself, Jess and her team ensured that everything ran smoothly and met our expectations. Our wedding breakfast was delicious, and all our guests were served in a timely manner.

    Our guests thoroughly enjoyed themselves and have told us how much they loved the venue and the staff.

    If we were to get married again, we would choose The Bell without hesitation!

    Beautiful Bonfire Night Wedding

    We got married at The (very, very lovely) Bell on the 5th of November and we had a fantastic time. We have loved this venue for years and were overjoyed to share it with our family and friends. This place has all the quirks in all the right places and we absolutely loved it, and so did all our guests. This place is so warm and inviting, especially in the Autumn, and staff were absolutely wonderful at creating the day we'd hoped for. The day ran incredibly smoothly and we have so many wonderful moments to cherish for the future years. All our guests were in awe of the venue, and the food and we are overflowing in gratitude to all the staff involved in our day. If you're looking for a calm, warming and wonderful day, with possibly the quirks of a few rabbits playing trumpets from the wallpaper, book The Bell.

    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!!

    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!
