Very noisy, walls are extremely thin. Bed was incredibly creaky, was difficult to get a good night's sleep. Room was clean, staff were very friendly and helpful.

Lovely room, with a four poster bed, staff were all very friendly and welcoming, a nice touch by the way the towels displayed on the bed and a personalised note.

Fabulous stay.

Fabulous warm welcome, great team vibe. Thank-you for having me! Lovely cosy room, lots of history, comfy bed and okay shower pressure. Would recommend.
Dominic, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

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.
Andrea, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

We paid extra for a 4 poster room & were given a Brewers cottage room. The bed was uncomfortable & the room was really hot. The staff did not care when approached about our room being downgraded.
Julie, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Room was beautiful. Gorgeous bathroom however, i felt like i was sleeping on the street. The noise level outside the window is awful. Hotel needs to consider double glazed screens.
Helen, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

The room was pleasant but had a foisty smell to it. Lots of noise from outside but expected in a town centre. Free bottle of wine easily obtained from the bar. Breakfast was nice but expensive.
