Chipping Campden was in the past a thriving and very wealthy market wool town. It now boasts one of the most popular villages with tourists in the Cotswolds. It has a good variety of accommodation in the form of hotels, B & Bs, holiday cottages and inns. The village is particularly endowed with a good selection of restaurants and tea shops.
A Warm Welcome and Good Food await you at the Eight Bells
Built in the 14th century to accommodate Stonemasons who were
building the town's Church, The Eight Bells was then used to store the Bells' for
the church tower, hence its name. Stay at the Eight Bells and share in the history
of Chipping Campden's oldest surviving Inn, in one of our en-suite, 4 star-rated
guest rooms. Now in it's 12th year of continual private ownership and run enthusiastically
together by it's owners and staff, you are assured of a warm welcome and enjoyable
visit.
The candle-lit Dining
Room offers a formidable array of stone fire places, oak
beams - and even a Priest Hole! Imagine the tales this room could tell whilst you unwind
and enjoy your meal.
With six tables and seating for up to 26 people,
we recommend you book early to avoid disappointment.
Situated just around the corner from Chipping Campden's St
James' Church we are ideally placed to cater for parties such as weddings and christenings
- and are the perfect venue for your Festive gathering. We provide Menu's
to suit your requirements and budget - not a standard, set menu, offering little
except a compromise.
Quietly situated just 50 metres off Chipping Campden's historic
High Street, The Eight Bells is the ideal hostelry for both the discerning visitor
and business traveller, is close to all amenities and places of interest both within
the town itself and also many other towns and villages of great historic interest.

In the Winter local shoots provide us with pheasant, wild duck and partridge. Our cheeses are all local and include the award winning Blue Brie from Stow and St Eadelburgs from Gorsehill Farm in the next village.
Our breakfasts include free range eggs from local farms and our butcher, Clive Porter from nearby Mickleton, makes our delicious sausages.

Our comfortable and cosy bar, with its blazing log fire in Winter, is the perfect place to relax after a long walk or to enjoy a pre-dinner gin & tonic.
