The Bowl Innis an historic pub offering superb accommodation, excellent food, fine wines and real ales. Whether coming for business or pleasure, these will ensure your stay is most enjoyable. We aim to give consistent quality and value for money. The bar area is a true reflection of the great British pub – offering several cask ales along with an excellent selection of wines. Nestling on the south eastern edge of the Severn Vale, in the quaint village of Lower Almondsbury, the Bowl Inn derives its name from the shape of the land surrounding the Severn Estuary, which is visible from the inn. Parts of this picturesque, whitewashed stone building were originally the three cottages erected in 1146 to house the monks building the adjacent church of St Mary the Virgin. During subsequent centuries, the tunnels between these cottages, the church and priory (now a farmhouse) were created to afford protection against marauding foreign invaders. The present building became a licensed inn in 1550, and it was used by James II’s sheriffs during the latter half of the seventeenth century to try supporters of the Duke of Monmouth. Nowadays the inside of the pub has kept two original open fires, exposed brickwork and beams. This is a traditional pub with a excellent dining facilities and are family friendly. We provide highchairs and crayons to keep even our youngest visitors happy! At the Bowl we offer an informal warm atmosphere in which to relax and enjoy your visit. Come and stay with us soon – you will be made very welcome.
