About

Bel & The Dragon is a collection of historic country inns spread across some of southern England's most beautiful villages, including Surrey, Berkshire, Hampshire, Buckinghamshire and Kent. Each property has its own story, from centuries-old coaching inns to beautifully restored village pubs, while sharing the same warm hospitality, characterful interiors and relaxed atmosphere. Whether you're staying for a weekend or simply stopping by for dinner, every inn feels deeply rooted in its surroundings.

There's something wonderfully nostalgic about exploring this part of England. Spend the morning walking through rolling countryside, browse independent bookshops and antique stores in nearby villages or pause for tea and freshly baked scones in a local café. By evening, gather around a crackling fire with a pint of local ale before sitting down to a seasonal British supper. It's the kind of place that reminds you how enjoyable the simple things can be.

Stay in beautifully restored coaching inns, each with centuries of history and its own unique character.
