Well what can I say....we found an absolute gem, with the The Bull Inn, from the moment  my young family and I walked in, we were made to feel welcome from both staff and locals. The rooms were comfortable and clean. The food was delicious and the staff were amazing, nothing was too much trouble. They acknowledged and spoke to my young children as well as us, which made my children's time here extra special. Thank you for making our little getaway a little bit more special. We will definitely be back and recommend The Bull Inn for all your getaways.

Absolute Gem

Sadly, the beef sandwich with Gravy and chips was as tough as old boots and the Gravy had a 'burnt' background taste which wasn't very nice.

The pub itself and staff were brilliant; we'll be back to give it another go, as we're in the area for a week.

Beef tough as old boots

Friendly, traditional village pub with comfortable accommodation and good food. Breakfast is excellent! Rooms are a good standard with all mod cons. Dogs are made welcome too. Great laid back atmosphere! We'll be going back again!

Homely, welcoming village Inn!

The views from the beer garden are lovely, well worth a visit if you’re in the area! We called for lunch on a busy Saturday with our dog. The staff were lovely and the food was quick and delicious. It wasn’t our first visit and certainly won’t be our last ☺️

Lunch with a view

The good-we have eaten here previously; the fish and chips were outstanding.
The bucolic setting by the river is idyllic. 

Not so good-we ordered at the bar, and were told twice that if we were eating in the garden we had to come back up the steps and say what the table number was, even though we were the only people in the garden and collect our own utensils, condiments etc on the way down.

On this occasion I choose the steak pie which comes with vegetables and chips.

When the slice of pie arrived it was sat in a bowl of thick deep gravy, the young friendly waitress, said she would return with the veg and chips.

The terrible-when she did, it was almost impossible to describe the presentation/offering. 
What looked like a small saucer size of soggy almost unrecognisable something with small ready flabby chips dumped on top.
Never have we seen anything quite like it!
The pie was almost inedible the crust was rock hard and the gallons of gravy that the pie slice was sat in was extremely salty.

In the interest of fairness, my partners  fish and chips in comparison was well presented and of good proportions.

Overall impression, the young waitress was friendly, the bar staff far less so, and what appeared to be the owner/manager even more so; customer service skills-sadly lacking.

Subsequently. we thought it prudent to say nothing and left, will not be returning.  


Unfortunate!

Excellent pub with a good selection of nice traditional beer. Also good food.
It has a small inside dining area so advise booking if you wish to sit inside. 
Also, nice big garden area which runs down to the river.
You can also have food and sandwiches etc there no need to book the garden.
Car park across the road from the pub.
Didn't stay there but they do have Accommodation.

Nice pub

A perfect jem of a bar hotel!  I would highly recommend a visit!  We had the Yorkshire platter for dinner and a full English for breakfast, both were superb!  The staff were very helpful and friendly!  Floors a bit creaky mind but you would expect that from a building with the character of this one!

A Perfect Jem!

Stayed at the Bull for one night as a stopover whilst travelling to a family wedding. Found the Bull to be very friendly and clean with good food and an excellent selection of ales in the bar. Good friendly place to stay

Excellent village pub

Stayed in room 2, lots of space for us and the dogs. Food was delicious breakfast was outstanding and the staff couldn't be more helpful. Lovely atmosphere with very friendly locals. Would definitely stay again if we're down that way.

Lovely pet friendly Inn

What an absolute gem of a pub ! 

We were staying close by and thought we would pop in. We have a dog with us so always check out if it's OK for him before we go. 
The food was fantastic and the atmosphere was brilliant but the best thing about this pub is Katelyn. What an absolute assest to have her in the pub. Soo friendly , polite and just a lovely person. Connected with my daughters over their hobbies and showed genuine interest in them. 
She even brought my Ted some sausages which he was thrilled about ! 
Will be back next time we are in the area. 

Thanks you
