Unfortunately, they don't keep their promise. 2 amounts were wrongly debited from my credit card even though the room had already been paid for well before arrival.
These 2 amounts would be credited back to the credit card within 10 days, but unfortunately this did not happen.
In the meantime I have lost an extra £240 (the total was debited from my card even though this had already been paid 2 months earlier) and there is no response to emails. So even though I have been there twice with satisfaction, I am now really sad after the second time.

So for now, very negative advice to book here. Before you know it you are paying extra for your room and they do not honor your payment and they do not respond to emails. Keep waiting for the refund to be made, but don't expect them to do this voluntarily at this point, because they won't contact you

Very negative, despite the satisfied stay at the beginning of September and last year

negative advice, a promise is a promise with me for you too?

We booked the Bull Inn as a last minute deal so to be fair at £80 a night when all around were booked up or horrendously expensive it was good for the money but we wouldn't have wanted to pay anymore.  

As we had time to spare, we enjoyed some nice pub food and to be honest we weren't expecting much at £13 a dinner. What we did get was a large plate of scrumptious food and large portions to boot. So they are definitely winning on that.  

The accommodation itself could have been given a bit of a spruce up, it looked tired and worn. On arrival we found there was no soap in the sink area and there was a notice on the table with coffee stains which was hard to read. There was one full size curtain across the door to keep out the light but the window only had a basic blind which let loads of light in from the security lights outside (which were on all night). It would have been better to have another curtain going across. The shower was dependent on other users in the block as the pressure kept reducing down which didn't make it an enjoyable experience. Beds on the other hand were comfy which is what you are ultimately paying for. 

Was £80 worth it? Given the area it's in, and the lack of availability, we couldn't grumble too much but if asked if we would stay there again, probably not.

Amazing food, tired accommodation

Just OK...nothing more, nothing less. The bull is looking very tired and in need of some TLC .

It was clean and is situated nicely to walk into Goring and Streatley. 

Think 80 quid is a tad expensive so what we experienced. 

I've stayed in the Swan, the Miller and Melrose cottage in the same villages ,would I return to the Bull ?

Maybe

Bang average 

The Bull inn is a lovely pub with rooms. We stayed one night for a wedding nearby. Our room was dated but clean perfectly acceptable for an overnight stay. Would have liked a kettle! However the best part of our stay was Ben, great customer service even helping us get to and from the wedding due to road closures and no taxi service available! We arrived early and even though the room wasn't ready he let us in to change and freshen up and when we returned later the room was lovely and clean. Once we got back from the wedding we had a lovely couple of drinks at the pub served by a friendly and sweet barmaid. I would definitely recommend the bull inn and would be delighted to stay again in the future. Thanks Ben!

Great service

The building with the rooms is quaint. The room itself and the separate bathroom were a reasonable size, and the location is amazingly quiet. check-in was easy at the bar in the restaurant. Unfortunately the place was let down by the little things: No soap by the sink. No spare toilet paper. Only one coffee pod (there were two nice mugs though) and no kettle. A crack in the sink. We were able to check in fine in the evening, but in the mornings there was nobody to talk to (we also had trouble contacting the inn by phone). We left the window open because it was a hot summer night, and there was a buzzing noise from nearby which we think was a commercial refrigerator. The room and bed were clean, and reasonably comfy though. 

Might we also suggest you invest in some larger linen bins - these were somewhat unsightly and slightly spoiled the garden area. 

Although this is not the most expensive place to stay in the area, next time we will spend a bit more and stay somewhere else.

Quaint place in Streatley let down by the little details.

We went in to order some vegan nachos as stated on the website. Just came with guacamole, chips and salads not as stated. We went to bar to ask why they said menu was not the same as online this had not been stated when we ordered this. We then asked if we could get anything on top. They said the pulled pork but it wasn’t gluten free when on the website it says gluten free which is a big issue. 

Menu online wrong

We used to come here regularly as a friend lives in Goring and it was good but then it went downhill so stopped. We noticed on Tripadvisor that it had new management and menu so we all decided to give it a go. On arrival in the car park there was an abandoned car which had been left there for sometime and the best garden was empty which was a surprise for Bank Holiday Saturday and upon entering the pub it was not much better. 
The two servers were both friendly and attentive and we ordered our food , we all had prawn Cocktail which was ok but lacked enough sauce, 3 of us had Hunters Chicken which was okay but again lacked enough sauce, the Gammon Steak was very good. We all decided not to have pudding so ordered the bill and paid.

As we left the pub a customer in the beer garden spoke to us quite abruptly and ended his conversation with a Homophobic comment,  it was not called for and it ruined our evening and we were dining out to mark our friends final chemotherapy session on Tuesday.

Don’t think we will ever be back.

A ruined evening

Such a Lovely pub. A great atmosphere and a beautiful location. Staff were so kind, friendly and helpful. The food was great and delicious. Such a wonderful, relaxing and amazing pub. Will be back! 



Wonderful Pub 🥰

Stayed here for the night with some friends a few days ago, the hotel was lovely with such a comfortable bed. We had some food and drinks in the bar area too, a great night was had by all and the staff were so friendly as well. Will definitely come back here!

Girls night away

Stayed here for one night with my partner, lovely room and clean throughout. We also had dinner and drinks in the pub which was great! Nice and cosy atmosphere, will definitely be returning, thank you!
