The Bell at Ramsbury
It’s Tuesday, it’s raining again and I’m off to cheer myself up with a good ole stuff up in the oh-so-delightful village of Ramsbury. A mere stiletto’s throw from Marlborough, this picture-perfect spot hovers over the River Kennet (most of which seems to be washing down the high street today), and is the ideal place, when it’s not flooded, for a family walk. The Bell is a 300 year old former coaching inn, voted Wiltshire Life pub and restaurant of the year, sitting in the heart of Wiltshire’s Best Kept Large Village, having won…yada, yada, yada. Yes, we all love an award but let’s get down to the important stuff and what we’re really here for. The food.

Muddy does cool pubs – Sign of the Angel, Lacock
It doesn’t get much more period drama than the cutesy National Trust village of Lacock, a Disney-esque haven of cobbles, inns, and ever-present film crews. Let's check out the pub!
