We stay here 2-3x per year as not only is The Bull one of the finest pub restaurants in England but the rooms are comfy with several dog-friendly. We find the price point to be excellent value.

Nothing beats The Bull / incredible food, ethically sourced including great breakfast options. Rooms are comfy and a couple of them allow dogs. Staff are never short of exceptional. Plenty of other great food locations nearby for variety. However once you eat at The Bull once you will be back time and time again. It’s is that good.

Beautiful building. All in room items ethically sourced. However, I thought The Bull was expensive for rooms above a pub. There was the smell of food cooking and I could hear the hand dryer from the pub loo from the room. I could also only open one window out of two and that was also overlooked by the room next door's balcony.

Nice place but busy

The place is cosy and have good staff, but due to the many external guests in the restaurant, we felt rather busy, at choose to have dinner and lunch in other restaurants. Could have been fine to be asked whether we would like to reserve table for dinner.
