About The Five Bells Inn

The Five Bells Inn puts its restaurant and bar at the centre of a stay in Ashford, with breakfast served each morning and outdoor seating for a drink outside when the weather allows. It's an adults-only setup, so the atmosphere leans towards a quiet, grown-up break rather than a family stopover, and there's a pub and further eating options nearby if guests fancy a change of scene.

Rooms come with en-suite bathrooms and drinks available in-room, and the property runs a 24 hour reception with luggage storage for early arrivals or late departures. Free WiFi is included throughout, parking is available on site, and pets are welcome for those travelling with a dog.

Ashford's location on The Street makes it a workable base for exploring Kent, with Canterbury, Leeds Castle and the Kent Downs all within reach, and the surrounding countryside suits walking and cycling. It's a straightforward inn geared towards comfort and convenience rather than extras.
