About Five Bells Wickham
Rooms at Five Bells Wickham come with en-suite bathrooms, drinks available in room, and the kind of understated comfort that suits both a short business stop and a longer break in Berkshire. The building's period character runs throughout, giving each stay a sense of history rather than the anonymous feel of a chain hotel.
Downstairs there is a restaurant and bar for meals and drinks, breakfast to start the day, and kids' meals available for families travelling together. A garden gives guests somewhere to sit outside, while free WiFi, 24 hour reception, and luggage storage cover the practical side of a stay. Free on-site parking makes arriving by car straightforward, and pets are welcome for those not travelling alone.
The hotel sits on Baydon Road in Newbury, with a pub or bar, restaurants and eateries all nearby for evenings out. Golf and fishing are within reach for guests wanting to fill the day, and there is entertainment nearby too, making it a fair base for exploring Berkshire beyond the hotel itself.
