About Spa Vision

Ye Olde Bell’s
Spa Vision

In 1650, the builders of the English farmhouse, now known as Ye Olde Bell Hotel, would never have been able to imagine what the home would become 400 years later.

The grand old building has bedded down, fed, nurtured and entertained stage coaches, highwaymen, cavalry, battalions, royalty, celebrities, the first cars, film crews and many a traveller. A grand olde dame fully deserving her very grand new spa.
