The food was very good indeed. Both breakfast and the pub food was piping hot, well presented and good value. We would certainly stay here again. The twin room was fine and bed comfy.

The beds were very comfortable. The mould in the shower was well past its sell by date! The door latch had a small bolt thread missing which meant the latch was not secure. The fire escape was well marked but the exit to the ground floor outside was blocked.

Great place
First time we have stayed here and our room was very nice and clean. Did not hear any noise from the pub down below of us at night. Food in the pub is very nice and portion size very big. Breakfast in morning was very good no complaints. Would definitely stay again

Comfy but not clean.
Great location and the room was spacious and very comfortable, good quality bedding and mattress. Sadly the room was a bit grubby, along with other communal areas with dust buildup on the light fittings, the carpet was gritty underfoot and shower cubicle dirty. Breakfast was great, good quality as was the meal we are there on one day of our stay. Needs a little TLC, and the cleaner needs to up their game, Probably wouldn’t go back until I know theses bit are sorted out.

Staff were welcoming. The breakfast room is bright. Access to floor with rooms is tight, and shabby. The green light attached to smoke censor in bedroom, as noted in reviews, is definitely a problem because it is too bright. Parking is in short supply…we had to drive around before a space became available after patrons of the pub/restaurant departed.

Greeted by 5 flies in bedroom, damp patch on ceiling, mould in shower and stagnant pond water in coffee machine . Beds and towels were clean but terrible cheap flat pillows. We had a kind of terrace outside the room via steps that had dog crap on it too. Fan in room was covered in dust/dirt too. Service at breakfast was good and food plentiful . Disturbed by a very rude guest allowing her child to jump and screech at top note from 6:50am waking us all up . Adult was not once heard trying to quieten down the screeching kid. Needs attention to detail with cleaning and maintenance .

Having stayed at the Bull Hotel in 2022, I was disappointed with our stay this August. The bedroom was clean but the bedsheets had not been ironed and the dressing table mirror fell out when it was touched, breaking a saucer. When we explained to staff they said that they were having trouble with the laundry service. but that is no excuse for putting un-ironed sheets on a bed. Other issues were down to a lack of attention to detail: The dining room floor needed sweeping, there was no spare toilet roll in the bathroom, and only honey was available for toast because no one had ordered jam and marmalade for breakfast

A disapponted stay in wales
Well what can i say its not a dog friendly hotel,the management were not very friendly towards our dog Frank .We went down for breakfast the first morning,our dog Frank was barking at the person serving us breakfast and he asked us to leave so we ended up having breakfast in our room everytime Frank saw him he would bark .The dining area had flies flying around the light fittings above our table .The breakfast wasnt up to much,no vegetarian option and very little of it,the cereal was stale as well .The good thing about the hotel was the bar,when we got there we spent the evening in the bar and had a lovely meal .I had fish and chips and my husband had lasagne which he liked and we had a few pints of manchester ale which was on a separate bill .Our room was okay the main light didnt work and the telly was slow with the internet connection so we couldnt watch catch up TV .The location is in the middle of nowwhere so if you like it quiet its the place to go .Wont be coming back again and wont be telling my dog friendly friends to vist here .

Well, First impression of the pub put me off, drove into the car park which was very scruffy with an overfilled with food and rubbish large wheelie bin with about 20 gulls having lunch. Went in through the back entrance, very dirty looking and the carpet leading up the first set of stairs is appalling, Also passed the kitchen and decided we would not be dining in. Second set of stairs were cleaner and the actual room improved although the bedding needs to be discarded, Best room was the new bathroom which was Beautiful. Excellent shower. Had a pretty sleepless night in an uncomfortable bed, went down for breakfast which was reasonable with decent service, but decided we would not be staying another night although we had paid for it. I don`t have a clue how this place got half decent revues, Expedia should inspect and take it off there site. We moved to a travel lodge.

Not the worst but could improve
There’s a massive green emergency fire exit so that is lit up all night so not great for a good night sleep. Not the cleanest and towels are threadbare well the one you get between two. The breakfast was good and drinks at the bar where also good

Room needed bit of cleaning (mirrors had many signs of hands and furniture covered by dust). It was small piece of toilet paper in the bathroom. The rest was great.
