Great location

Room was comfortable however the bathroom was opposite the room. This made going to the toilet in the night a little awkward. Didn’t use the shower as the shower head looked rusty. The breakfast was delicious and piping hot Cooked to perfection.

The Bull Inn was in a great location and the room was nice. You need to be aware that there is loud live music on Saturday evening, which makes the room very noise.

Not the most relaxing stay.

Not the best of stays, if I'm being honest. Open mike night on downstairs right below my room, decided to go down and have a few drinks as couldn't hear the telly. Went to bed at 11pm when music finished then got woken up by police banging on my bedroom door saying that there had been an incident outside the hotel involving an assault on bar staff and one of them had identified me as one of those involved. I tried to explain that this wasn't really possible as I'd been in bed since 11.20 but apparently I couldn't have been because I was outside fighting at 12.20. Phoned hotel next day and got apology, still waiting for my apology from the female police woman who insisted that she'd seen the CCTV footage and it was definitely me. Are they really allowed to lie in order to trick someone into confessing, I'm sure they're not. Anyway all in all not the best of stays and in conclusion I'd say don't stay here unless you have a cast iron alibi.
