A wonderful welcome and our room was lovely. The dining area was busy with both residents and local people. The menu offered a good variety and food arrived very hot and well presented. We wouldn’t hesitate to return but would advise that the age of the building means that stairs are very steep and the floors are uneven.

We had a lovely stay at The Bull. The history of the building and the quirky slopes and design features all added to the charm. The beds were super comfortable and the room very clean and well decorated. only downside was the limited parking which we knew about and the noise from people in the pub below, but you would expect this staying above a pub:)

Our room was lovely and clean, complimentary toiletries, and a good choice of coffee. We didn’t use the bar because we went out somewhere else, but we will go back to try their daytime dining. Breakfast had a wide selection. The stairs were steep, but we had been warned, the fire escape stairwell was easier to use in the evening when the pub was closed.

Very pleasant staff with a warm greeting. I was shown to my room which was very small and only just accommodated a double bed. The bathroom was equally minute and sadly both were in need of refreshing the decor. The main negatives was the level of lighting that had little effect on the dark and dingy room. The area designated for tea/coffee etc and the only working area had no light at all so almost impossible to use. Nice touches along with a good range of complementary beverages were a complimentary bottle of London Pride and a small bottle of Prosecco. The room was quite noisy but One has to realise that it's a pub! The restaurant staff were very pleasant and the food was adequate. Breakfast was very slow.

Lovely room but pub was quite noisy until midnight. Cleaning was hit and miss - rug under bed was absolutely filthy - luckily there were slippers in the room! Breakfast was amazing though. The car park is very tight and through narrow roads with parked cars - I was fine but less confident drivers might struggle.
