Lovely pub/restaurant/hotel, which has successfully blended the old with the new. Staff service excellent. Food tasty and well presented. Dog friendly. Nearby footpaths and country parks close by and immediate area is nice to explore. One small negative - stable room bathroom needs a bit of a refresh.

Lovely hotel and excellent value for money

This is my second review for this trip - first one for check in experience and first night..I was a little concerned that the extractor fan would kee me awake but in fact it went off just after 10.30 and thereafter it was really quiet in the room. The bed was really comfortable and the blind and curtains blocked out any light very efficiently. The room was very clean and the shower powerful and hot with nice toiletries. Breakfast this morning was very good indeed and fantastic value for money. Given that this was included in the room rate this stay was excellent in terms of price and I would thoroughly recommend the hotel and stay there again

The Bull Hotel is located in a grade 2 heritage listed building, so it's not a modern hotel, but the room was clean and large enough. The staff were wonderful and the included breakfast was wonderful. All in all, it was an enjoyable stay.
