Historical and comfortable with friendly staff and great food.

The staff were very friendly and helpful. The rooms were full of character and comfortable.

Beds were a bit softer than my personal taste but still comfortable.

Comfortable stay with character and history.

Fantastic place to stay full of history and quirky features.

Some people may find the low beams or uneven floors a bit tricky but it was part of the charm for us.

9.0 / 10.0

Great stay, quiet area, independent shops, good sized rooms

Food was excellent. Staff very caring and friendly despite being short staffed due to annual leave. All seemed happy to be there.

If the bathroom radiator top was removed and the dust hoovered out, it would look much better. You couldn’t miss it when sat on the loo!!

Up to date Bull et Inn. Ok

Beautiful Tudor building, original oak beams and sympathetic furnishings. Parking, breakfast, Abbot Ale, all good stuff. Breakfast room had huge wonderfully carved mantelpiece. Couldn't get too close as fire was alight. Welcome in February. Price too was very attractive.

Connecting to internet via Greene King rules of sharing details, not for me. So for 1 night I did without.

Suitable for a one night stay but needing an injection of money to upgrade.

Location perfect. Staff friendly. Room super clean.

Bathroom tired especially the rusty radiator. The food was very average - salad not eaten as it was brown and past it’s sell by date.

Good value

Dinner, was pub food and not very exciting, nothing really healthy . i.e. a Poke Bowl Breakfast choice was excellent

Less chips with everything and a bit more imaginative dinner menu

Excellent breakfast huge choice nice buffet section cereals breads pastries fresh fruits compote and yoghurt then delicious choice of cooked food which was lovely

Lots of steps & stairs and as it’s so old a very wonky floor

7.0 / 10.0

Lovely location, nice comfy room, good quality, good value food and pleasant staff.

LUNCH - good quality and good value. DINNER - good quality and good value again, but service was slow (probably due to a large 80th party and many guests stretching the staff somewhat!) ROOM - clean, tidy and comfy. We slept well. BREAKFAST - Good choice, good quality, but again the staff were clearly somewhat over stretched as it took quite some time for them to notice that the coffee had run out and to replenish it.(Same reason as DINNER I'm sure, as the same party were all having breakfast at the same time as many of the other guests. All in all - GOOD despite the pressure on the staff .We WOULD stay again, but hopefully when there isn't a large party staying at the same time !

Nothing - the problems encountered were, we're sure, unusual, not typical. A result of being popular, with good reason!

9.0 / 10.0

Nice place to stay and the pub and food were was spot on and very tasty.

Only stayed for one night, but the room and facilities were excellent. Booked dinner and breakfast, and the food was spot on and very tasty. Overall would stay again if back in this area for work.

Great base to explore from.

Beautiful old building , rooms were comfortable and clean, staff were amazing, we stayed for 3 nights just after New Year, food in restaurant was nice and the location at the end of the high street was perfect, plenty of paring to rear.

Nothing, we really enjoyed our stay.

A wonderful historic public house / hotel in an amazing location. Very enjoyable stay.

Excellent value for a stay in a beautiful historic public house/hotel with a wonderful atmosphere. Our room was very well-appointed, and the food in the restaurant area was plentiful. Loved coming down for breakfast in the mornings....seemed like an occasion! The local area has so much to do... the park at Clare, the fairy-tale village of Lavenham, and a day out at Ely or Bury St Edmunds.

Nothing to fault at all. We visited in October, so parking was easy, but I can imagine in the summer it might be harder. Plenty of other areas to park locally, though.

Good food and nice rooms in an old inn with lots of atmosphere.

Beautiful ancient inn with heavy wooden beams and great atmosphere; comfortable room (beautifuilly clean), and good dinner menu. Pretty main street location. Very good value; the second time we've stayed.

Ideally, a fire exit route not bringing other guests through our bedroom would be preferable!
