The Bell Inn, Thorpe Le Soken

The Bell inn is an AA 4 Star Inn and the bedrooms all feature en-suite bathrooms and are finished to a very high standard.

All the bedrooms are at the rear of the building and overlook the church and churchyard of the historic St Michael's Church.

The restaurant has been awarded AA 2 Rosette for Culinary Excellence and offers a great range of food or just call in for a refreshing real ale or choose from our extensive wine and drinks menu.

The Bell Inn sits in the heart of the village of Thorpe Le Soken which is set in the picturesque Essex countryside close to the Victorian seaside towns of Clacton on Sea, Frinton on Sea and Walton on the Naze.

The building has been used as an Inn since the middle of the 16th Century and it has a fascinating history going back to the 1500s when the property is believed to have been the Guild Hall of St Michael's Church in Thorpe Le Soken until about 1545.

The property features traditional beams throughout and has a picturesque terrace which was originally the front of the building, overlooking St Michael's Church.

The premises have recently been lovingly renovated throughout and the bedrooms are now available for bed and breakfast, offering en-suite deluxe double rooms overlooking the church.
