After a slight false start due to the first room having a broken tap, we were housed in a great room. It was tastefully decorated and comfortable, with everything we needed. The bed though spacious was a little firm for our liking.

Saturday night away

Stayed at the Bull pub We’ve stayed there before, room was at the front of the pub with no road noise at all. Room was spacious comfortable and really clean, nice big shower and very private. Considering the restaurant/pub was below us there was no noise. Would definitely recommend.

Lovely comfortable room except for the bathroom, shower leaked and sprayed water everywhere and was either freezing or boiling. Check in was slow and not welcoming, we were told breakfast was at 7:30 and so hung around to feed the kids before setting off on a long drive to find the whole place in darkness and the guest info stating it was 8:30 so had to leave without having it as couldn’t hang around for another hour. Service in the restaurant was slow and again not too friendly, we were made to feel like an inconvenience.

Good hotel - shame about the beds.

Have stayed at this hotel at least 6 times over last few years in various rooms and price ranges. Each time the hotel and rooms were clean and tidy, good service, food and bar - our only concern what’s been the beds - uncomfortable, double beds not wide enough. Have never had a good nights sleep in any of them. Shame, as it is the only thing that lets the hotel down.

They’ve got it right!

The stand-out feature of our stay was the check-in and staff experience. We were welcomed by ‘Non’ who was super-friendly and genuinely warm towards us; the best host! Our ‘Signature Room’ was completely stunning, far exceeding our expectations. The styling is excellent with all amenities and the bath in the centre of the room is a wonderful feature. We ate in the ‘snug’ and the menu choices and GF options were superb. Food was served promptly and was delicious. We recommend this hotel to other couples without question.

Slightly shabby but not shabby chic!

Staff were excellent, very friendly and we ate here one evening of our stay..the meal was extremely good. Sadly the rooms did not meet our expectations.We opted for superior and so glad we did as quite poor compared to other recent uk stays.
