The Bell at Skenfrith Abergavenny Reviews from The Last Year
Poor experience
Went to the bell for a drink after a long walk. Was greated by the most miserable rude and unhelpful member of bar staff who quite clearly should not work in customer services!! Shame as the restaurant looked great!! Would think twice about going back!!
Ding, dong! The Bell at Skenfrith does it again...
As a treat, my partner and I recently invited a friend from Bristol to join us for lunch at the Bell at Skenfrith. A meal at The Bell is a very special experience in that it is a low key smart restaurant (it would sit perfectly in a smart London setting) which offers sumptuous food and discreet service. If by chance you are looking for a cheap and cheerful, run-of-the-mill pub; do not even think of going to The Bell which does not cater for the fast and furious 'churn 'em out' clientele. On our latest visit, my partner opted for the roast pork while our guest chose the roast lamb and I treated myself to a venison burger. All three dishes were succulent, cooked beautifully and served with perfect accompaniments. Two of us had desserts, and what with teas and coffees, the bill came to just under £120, which I consider to be reasonable for gorgeously prepared seasonal food served in a stylish setting. Skenfrith is a charming village where you can go for a walk after your meal at The Bell to try and work off the indulgence of such a culinary treat. It is also the site of the ruins of Skenfrith Castle which is part of the Three Castles; a former medieval lordship which comprises Grosmont, Skenfrith and the White Castle.
A room with a view!
We had been looking forward to our few days away as a couple for our wedding anniversary. The Bell at Skenfrith was unknown to us but in the right area. We had read some positive the reviews and thought that it looked like a nice place. The hotel was as expected from the reviews really clean and tidy. The housekeeping staff are outstanding, the staff friendly and efficient. The room we had was adequate to our needs. Unfortunately the pillows were really hard and uncomfortable, even though we asked for more pillows, they too were the same. We decided to make an unscheduled trip to Waitrose in Abergavenny to buy ourselves new pillows. The lighting in our room was poor especially in the bathroom. The only privacy in the bathroom from being easily seen from the back garden was by drawing the curtains, which was awkward because it made the room even gloomier! The quirky wooden 'boot straightener ' toilet roll holder was difficult to use and unhygienic. Especially when it had a half used toilet roll on it left by the previous guests! The Bell is obviously a destination for local foodies. Which we can understand as the evening meals were good. However, that cannot be said for the breakfasts. The choice of breakfasts wasn't vast, eggs with everything, but over three days of our stay not one of the poached eggs were correctly cooked. On the last morning of our stay the bacon under the Eggs Benedict was 'delightfully' stripped with the colour purple!? If you don't like cats this is certainly not the venue for you. We have pets ourselves, but when one of the two hotel cats went to the toilet in the fireplace next to where we were sitting we moved! Even though we 'told' on the poor cat, the pee still hadn't been cleaned away the following evening. We pity anyone sitting by that fire when it's lit later this winter! We did fill in a feedback form for the hotel and pointed out our observations.
Best Sunday lunch around
Beautiful food, lovely staff and stunning surroundings. Never, ever had anything less than a great experience here all round - it’s well worth the 45 minute drive to get here. Attentive but not overbearing staff. We both had the Roast Beef today followed by apple and cinnamon crumble, worth every penny.
Fabulous
Had a fabulous lunch - friendly relaxed staff who made us very welcome, delicious meal, very pretty location, all in all a brilliant stop. Will definitely go out of my way to make a return visit. Thank you
Overnight stay
A hotel may have all the necessary accolades but without the staff they mean nothing. My daughter and I arrived to be met by the most charming lady who proceeded to take our bags to our room. Explain the layout and was generally helpful. The restaurant staff were equally pleasant making sure we were content at every turn. A wonderful meal which could not be faulted. The whole experience was first class. Thank you.
Book your table now....
Number 8 for the 12/12 venus. The Bell Skenfrith, a really nice restaurant, seating area comfy, clean and spacious. Food was extremely tasty, well presented and ample. Totally smashed some of our past restaurants not to name any of course. Staff were brilliant, helpful and friendly.... one downside for this restaurant for me was the location, a little bit of a trek for us really BUT saying that, Yes I would highly recommend a visit.... 8.5 / 10 for me..... Go on people book a table.... you will enjoy it...
Midway stop over to coast
Everything about our stay was excellent, the food was outstanding as were the staff - engaging, attentive and very friendly - thank you to all the team. The saying goes ‘you get what you pay for’ and whilst there might be cheaper options, everything we got was value for money.
Perfect
This was a perfect stop for us on a trip to South Wales. Lovely location in the small village of Skenrirh next to an old bridge. Staff very friendly and helpful. Restaurant was a little gem snd though l’y recommended. Good gluten free options and our first taste of a Welsh white wine.
Great service, delicious food and comfortable rooms with lovely views
Really lovely, attentive and efficient staff, really great food and airy, comfortable bedrooms. This is at least the fourth time we have stayed at The Bell and we will be back again. It's a beautiful location by the river, with scenic walks in all directions. The food this time was particularly good (Brixham Crab, Souffle and Halibut dishes all delicious, as was the generous cheese board). Very relaxing all round. Only small comment and request is to have a hand-held as well as fixed shower attachment installed in the bathroom - fixed not great for hair washing...!

Great Service - amazing dinner!!
Read about the site in NYT and bought a reservation at Mother Wolf in LA 2 days later. Worked great and the food was amazing!!!
Worked perfectly!
Got the reservation (that I couldn't get anywhere else) and was able to entertain a group of friends at the infamous Bern's Steakhouse.
Got into Nobu Malibu
Wonderful! My parents are visiting and we have wanted to go to Nobu Malibu for years. I tried getting a reservation myself but it was next to impossible. So glad I was able to buy a reservation on appointment trader for a decent price!
Very easy
Was very hesitant going into this experience but am glad to say that it worked out very well ! will definitely use appointment trader in the future
Fabulous Lunch
I was veeeeeerry skeptical that this would work, particularly at a restaurant as hard to get into as Nobu Malibu, and it was perfect! We had lunch outside on the patio and it was fabulous!
Great reviewer team
Just wanted to take a second to shout out the reviewer team. Even though they probably review hundreds of listings and bids a day, they still take the time to leave great comments and respond relatively quickly. Thanks!
Incredible
I got a reservation to Don Angie, which I've been trying to book for weeks! I am very happy with this service.
Best platform out there!
Super simple, easy, and fast to secure reservations for hard-to-get restaurants and locations!
This app is life changing
This app has opened my world up to so many wonderful new experiences I would never have the chance to have without access to this awesome app! 10/10!
Worked perfectly
Was a little nervous at first but was pleased to see that the booking went through flawlessly.
Highly recommended.
Success on Short Notice
Was able to snag an indoor table at Don Angie through an absolutely seamless worry-free process.
Worked perfectly, thank you!
This is a crazy holiday season in NYC and I was very pleasantly surprised to see that AppointmentTrader works! Will be using again!
Worked flawlessly!
Worked so well! I was a bit nervous, but everything went very smoothly. purchased the reservation, and got into the restaurant seamlessly.
Love this app!
So glad I came across this app :)
Quick table in Miami
I didn’t have my hopes high as it was a party of 4. In 24 hours I had a carbone reservation available! I was very happy as my family really wanted to come here
Prime time, great meal
So easy and had a prime time which I can never seem to get on normal res apps. So worth it
Got impossible NYC res
instead of waiting weeks I got my 4 charles reservation instantly
Worked perfectly to get into Carbone. So delighted
perfect
Worked well, got me into a restaurant with no availability
I was skeptical, and I still don't really know how they managed to find this hard-to-find reservation, but it was a win-win from my point of view, and I'll use this service again.
Last minute reservation for Delilah Las Vegas
Got a last minute reservation, dinner for 2 at Delilah Las Vegas: super impressed! The process was simple, transaction seamless. We had an amazing time! Couldn’t be happier! 😍
It works!
Ok at this point I've attended a reservation purchased on AT by a friend and sold a reservation personally. Both worked pretty smoothly, nothing sketchy about it. A few areas for improvement including a way to more directly communicate between buyers and sellers, but the app always seems to be in development. AT customer support is really(!) responsive and helpful too if you have questions!
Money transfer
As a seller, I like the fact i have the ability now to transfer money out of my AT account and into a bank account. Makes getting the money much easier then the process before.
Love this app
Got to go to places otherwise unreachable
Easy Access
Very easy to get into one of the hardest restaurants to reserve in New York.

I will give you 50% of ALL of my PROFITS if you teach me how to make profits?
LOL. Thank you The New Yorker.
Appointment
Transferring reservations is not supported in AT. Why not just use the name in the AT screenshot?
Buyers interested in Bern's Steakhouse: PLEASE READ
Same goes for 4 Charles and I Sodi
Prepaid Reservation Fee
Agreed. Ultimately not addressing this month after month is clearly resulting in a drop in certain venue’s rankings & sales.
Congrats on 3 mil
🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🧨🧨🧨 now on to 30 mill!
Need to cancel a bid, not getting a response… how do I do it?
Click on "Take off the Market Option" in your portfolio
Working on your bid?
Your bid has been “matched” with a reservation. From the time a reservation has been located, the seller of the reservation must connect with moderator to give transfer information for reservation. If the seller;however, does NOT respond to reservation transfer, then your bid is reprocessed and returns to the first step, which is connecting your request to a reservation.
Process after bid is accepted.
Hey @EvocativeFold67, welcome to appointmenttrader! Once the reservation is in your portfolio, you definitely own the timeslot, the review team would not have approved the trade if the reservation wasn't confirmed - so you are going :-) Judging from your post you bid today and are going tomorrow - don't worry as long as you initiated the name transfer, you are good - the transfer service has to work with the opening hours of the reservation team of the respective venue. You will likely see the transfer confirmation a couple hours before your reservation time.
Where do the Reservations on AppointmentTrader come from?
Mostly from people who don't need their reservations or appointments any longer. AT has no relationship with places listed and acts as a platform connecting buyers and sellers making sure that listed reservations are real and that privacy is not compromised when transacting.
What happens if my bid expires unanswered?
Hey @FluffyStar64, thanks for the question! When you place your bid the amount gets transferred in a deposit account, the second you either cancel your bid or a few minutes after the bid expires the funds are moved back into your main account from where you can refund it to your payment method or use for other transactions.
