We were the first overnight guests for the new owners and forced them to accelerate their plans for taking guests! They were lovely and could not have given us a warmer welcome. They have great plans for the Bull Inn and we would love to go back in future to see the results. We wish them every success with their new venture.

I had a really great stay at the Bull Inn which is located in a lovely quiet village surrounded by the countryside. My room was very clean, and the bed was so comfortable, and because it’s so peaceful, I had a fabulous nights sleep. Beats noisy large chain hotels any day!!! Lots of tea / coffee with biscuits provided which was nice as I’ve been to many hotels recently where you get minimal items. Lots of free parking and directly outside your own room which was brilliant for carrying suitcases etc out of your car. Leo the owner is absolutely lovely and really cares about his guests, and gives you the most amazing welcome. A really lovely gentleman. I stayed mid week and there was a pop up kitchen of Mexican food (different pop ups each week) which was gorgeous and I was able to sit on the small patio outside my room in the sunshine.. just so lovely. I would definitely come back to stay at The Bulls Inn if I were in the area again as I felt so comfortable and safe there.

New owners since I stayed there last year ,but found them and staff to be equally as nice,friendly and helpful. Breakfast was spot on,but special mention to Chef's Steak,done to perfection and best quality ( locally sourced i believe) that I have had in a number of years. Would recommend without hesitation.

Warm Welcome

A friend and I stayed here for the Burghley Horse Trials, which was about a 30 minute drive away. The hosts Daena & Leo, who have been running The Bull Inn for the last few months were fantastic. They are both really friendly and accommodating. We wanted to be away to Burghley before breakfast on Saturday, so they very kindly gave us a box of fruit and pastries on Friday night to take with us. Room was clean and comfortable, food in the pub restaurant was nice as was the cooked breakfast. Food, beer and room prices were good value. Locals were really friendly and welcoming too. We were really happy with our stay and will definitely stay here again when we are next in the area.

Our weekend at The Bull

For a short weekend stay, the Bull Inn was perfect for my wife and I. The management are extremely friendly and working hard to make the Inn a popular venue for locals and travellers. The food was excellent and a good choice as were the wines Breakfast was more than sufficient and well presented. The water was hot and the towels sufficiently large and soft. There is plenty of parking space.and it was quiet. The only downside was that the room was not made up when we were out or the used cups washed. This isn't a big deal on a short stay but if we were staying longer, would have been an irritant.

Exceeded expectations, will be back.

Arrived around 8pm and was shown to my room which was like a little chalet. Room 2 was a little dated, with a disability friendly bathroom, but was comfortable, cosy and had everything you would like to expect. A kettle, biscuits, plenty of bathroom minis. I liked that I was separate but next to the pub and had my truck parked right outside. The atmosphere in the pub was really nice, bustling with friendly locals and their dogs. Very pleasant to sit and have a meal which was excellent. The menu is vast, well priced and the ingredients used were top notch. I slept well and the breakfast was equally excellent, freshly cooked with top quality ingredients. Just what I needed after a long day working away, I will be back as very good value.

Excellent value for money. Good Bar/Restaurant

Located in a lovely little village your room is like a single room (with shower & toilet) cottage in a "terrace" outbuilding to the rear - presumably old barn type converted. The room met our needs fully. There was a service item identified by Colin prior to our arrival that couldn't be immediately rectified however we met a mutually acceptable compromise. Only "issues" with the room were the extractor in tthe shower room didn't work and could have doe with a wipe. The closure area of the window frame needed a clean. The bar/restaurant was very nice. Food was good at a decent price. Wide choice of beers and ciders on draught. Breakfast was very tasty and set us up for the day. Staff were all very helpful and friendly. Would I recommend? - most definitely Would I stay here again? - most definitely

A lovely place which you really need to visit

We stayed for 2 nights, and what a lovely 2 nights it was. The owners have recently taken over with the help of the community, and the pub had only been open 12 days. They've had to put alot of time and effort to get the pub and accommodation back to where it needed to be, and they have done an amazing job!!! Everyone, especially the landlord and his wife, were so friendly and helpful, nothing was too much for them and they were so welcoming. Our room was extremely clean and comfortable, the pub was very inviting with a good variation of beers/ciders/wines and non-alcoholic drinks available and the menu looked amazing, there is also an amazing beer garden with plenty of parking available. Unfortunately we didn't get chance to sample the evening menu due to other commitments, but we will certainly be back after having the breakfast, and also as they source all their food locally. The team are doing an excellent job and I would recommend staying or just visiting this lovely pub to anyone. 10 out of 10 from me, and I've stayed in quite a few places with work.
