Staff were super welcoming and friendly, nothing too much trouble. We were in Flying Cow, which was fun. Bed was very comfortable. Tea/coffee tray provided 😁. Food in both the restaurant and pub was delicious, as were the breakfasts.

The only slight niggle was the music in the dining room. Too loud and totally unsuitable for the clientele.

Our room was a little on the small side, but had everything required. Very modern bathroom, and excellent shower. The only negative I could think of is the proximity to the main road (our room was at the front).

“Slightly disappointing.”
- • Leisure trip
- • Solo traveler
- • Double Room Ensuite
- • Stayed 1 night
- • Submitted from a mobile device
Small items in room that made the difference between reasonable and good I.e. no soap on the wash basin - had to use shower gel. Flecks on the carpet that had obviously not been vacuumed carefully enough. Almost used toilet roll in holder where there should normally have been a fresh one for a new guest. Broken bath fitting that operated bath plug, so that taking a bath was not possible because water ran away. Smooth stainless steel shower and bath taps which could not be turned up/down with wet or soapy hands. Overall enjoyed my short stay but felt that more care should given to the presentation of the room, in this case room no.5.

The location was very poor on the side of a busy main road, definately not a 5 star spot . The owner / manager lady was very abrupt, her rules were very petty and threat based!!The bathroom had no soap only a shared bottles of shower gel and shampoo again not 5 star
The waitresses were very friendly. Food was nice.

“After taking the Bull by the Horns just one word Mooootastic!”
- • Business trip
- • Solo traveler
- • Small Double Room
- • Stayed 2 nights
What did I not like about the Bull Inn? Hard one as there is nothing not to like if you had to be ultra picky you could say maybe more than 3 milks and caffinated coffee would have been nice in the room but a quick trip to the reception fixed that and no grumbles from the staff to boot so no complaints from this traveller.
The Bull Inn reasons to stay, Freindly and helpful staff, great location, great facilities all equal great value for money. Having now stayed in both the "Cozy rooms" and themed "suits" both cater well for the traveller on all budgets, Highly reconmended. Mooootastic!
