    This was a basic accommodation the night prior to our ferry departure from Dover Although this is a pub accommodation, the pub was already closed in the afternoon therefore it was dead quiet.

Property information

The Five Bells is a traditional village pub, it is situated on the outskirts of Deal, some traffic noise can be experienced as it is partly on the main road into Deal, however this is not a busy road at night. The rooms are situated above the pub itself so some noise is to be expected during opening hours.

Neighbourhood information

Ringwould is a pretty little rural village on the outskirts of Deal and Dover, We are less than ten minutes drive to the port of Dover, so perfect for an overnight stay before arriving at the terminal. There are plenty of coastal and village walks and there are several castles close by to explore.
