The Bell at Boxford  

On the edge of Newbury in Mapledurham, a short drive from Welford Park and Deanwood Park Golf Course. Watermill Theatre and Donnington Castle are nearby, with Highclere Castle and the Thames within easy reach. A pet-friendly, family-friendly inn with on-site parking.

A small, homey guest house with nine guestrooms and a discreet, welcoming service style. Rooms come with DVD players, satellite TV, safes, coffee/tea makers, showers and hairdryers. Relax on the terrace or in the garden; guests are met by the host rather than a 24-hour front desk.

Enjoy terrace and garden views, a picnic area and barbecue grills. Onsite arcade/game room and a playroom for kids keep things lively, plus wedding services for special events. Free self-parking and complimentary wireless internet keep stays easy.

Complimentary wireless internet access throughout the property and in-room phones with free local calls.

On-site restaurant, snack bar/deli and a bar/lounge serve local British flavors. English breakfasts are served weekdays 7:30–8:30 AM and weekends 8:30–9:30 AM.
