About us - what we're trying to do

At The Bear we are trying to re-establish the Hotel as an individual property, after years of corporate ownership and neglect. Having already spent a million pounds on the property we have an ongoing refurbishment programme over the next year to eighteen months to restore the property to its former glory, but at the same time bringing it into the 21st Century.

Our philosophy is to provide excellent value for money, using quality fresh ingredients, with a service that is friendly and efficient yet not intrusive - we want our guests "to want to return".
