Fantastic
I used to stay at the Bull a lot on business. It was so pleasing to see that it is still as good as ever. Our room was so comfy, well appointed and in superb condition. The breakfast was really good too. The car park is free for staying guests too. I can't leave out the hotel staff who were all very helpful.

The Bull is quite quaint, the staff were very accommodating and the room comfortable. The area around it however isn’t very nice, I wouldn’t be very comfortable walking around as a single woman at night.

The Bull Hotel was a great stay. The room was compact and beds good. The ensuite was excellent with plenty of room. Bar area was amazing and good food served most of the day. So one could eat if arrived late. The decor was really done well

Generally great
On the whole it is a lovely hotel and room but not eco friendly. Old single glazed draughty window in the room which leaked heat. Other than that the hotel, room and position are great.

Not a 4 star by any means, tiny rooms, no USB sockets, very poor WiFi signal. Got locked in the car park and the area is full of tramps and drug users.
