Great quiet getaway

This was a realy nice venue to stay at. The single room was fine for me and comfortable, the rooms are to the rear of the Inn in an annex. All the food was nice and well presented. The staff very very pleasnant and helpful. The village is very quiet so for that quiet getaway you would be wise to think of here

Despite being under new ownership everything was lovely and clean. Staff could not do enough to make our stay memorable. All food was genuinely home made/ home cooked and delicious. Thanks to all for a lovely stay.

Festival Trip.

A lovely room to the rear and separate to the Inn. Room 4 - such a comfortable bed. Plenty of hot water. Car parking space in front of the room. Cooked breakfast of your choice. Friendly family running the Inn. Went to the area for a music festival, only went 1 day. If we attend next year we will stay at the Bull Inn again

Great pub, great food and even better service

We stopped for one night en route to a family wedding and so glad we chose the Bull at Rippingham. Lovely family run pub with rooms. The family only recently took over the pub and are doing a fabulous job. Super comfy bed (new mattress) and very clean room with en-suite. Great atmosphere in the pub and the new chef has a great menu of excellent food, all locally sourced, generous portions and great value for money. Breakfast was amazing too. All in all 5 star!

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.

A great find

Lovely rooms outside of the main pub in an outbuilding which were great as quiet and. Few steps away from the pub. The room was small but had everything we needed for a one night stay. Really comfortable king size bed and lovely walk in shower. Tea/coffee making facilities with. Complimentary bottle of water and biscuits Wifi wasn’t working in the room when we were there but it did work in the pub so not. Big deal. The TV in the room was really small and coild do with better blackout curtains but breakfast was lovely with a choice of Full English or other dishes such as scrambled egg on toast etc. I would definitely stay again if in the area

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.

A great place to stay!

What a brilliant little find! The location is in a pretty village, and the owner is really friendly and helpful. He was on hand to greet us, and cooked us a lovely meal in the pub restaurant. Our room was spacious but warm, as was the en-suite wet room. It was lovely and quiet too. Overall a great place to stay, and one we'd happily return to.

Disappointed we were only notified on the day the pud and restaurant were shut in January. We would have changed to a different hotel if we knew.
