Dog-friendly The Bell in Ticehurst located in East Sussex is a fantastic base from which to explore the gems of the South East with Fido in tow. In the heart of the village, the 16th-century hotel underwent a full renovation, beautifully restoring its quintessentially English character. You and your pooch can choose from beautiful bedrooms or luxurious lodges situated in their own gardens. Lodges feature a cosy fire-pit, perfect for roasting marshmallows and drying wet paws after returning from a countryside walk. An ideal retreat for those wanting to escape the hustle and bustle of everyday life with Hastings, Tunbridge Wells and Rye all around a 30-minute drive from The Bell.
