We stayed over at The Pied Bull and absolutely loved it. From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere was welcoming and full of character – you can really feel the history of the place, but it’s cosy and relaxed at the same time. The staff were friendly, attentive and clearly take pride in what they do. The food was excellent – hearty, well-cooked and full of flavour. Everything came out hot and beautifully presented.

Lovely place and full of quirks - some are charming and make you giggle (stairs and plumbing arrangements), others not so (noise from the bar in a first floor room and ). Glad we stayed and the food was good.

I love tradition so staying in a place of history was part of my choice to stay there. Basic but clean and did the job for our stay. Staff friendly and welcoming. Great location too.
