All our family and friends were well looked after, as were we. Gary is such a friendly man and helped us out in any way he could, the day went so smoothly. Such a beautiful old building with a lot of character. I stayed here for two nights and the rooms were lovely and breakfast was delicious and freshly cooked!Renewal of Wedding Vows Venue Service By Carol & Andrew, on 14 May 2019Date of Wedding - 13 Jan 2019 Gary, Soo and all of the team managed our celebration in a professional and friendly manner. They catered for 40 guests very efficiently. The 3 course meal was beyond expectations, with all guests enjoying the meal.

Thank you very much for making our wedding vow renewal a very special occassionWinter Wedding Venue Service By Laura & Jonathan, on 14 May 2019Date of Wedding - 20 Dec 2018 We recently had our wedding at The Bull and couldn’t have been happier. The food and service were both fantastic and the day went perfectly. All of our guests commented on the beautiful venue and friendly staff. We also booked the majority of the rooms within the hotel and nothing was too much trouble, including the early check in’s we had requested for several members of the wedding party. We will have very fond memories of The Bull for years to come and very much look forward to visiting again soonFamily Wedding Venue Service By Lauren & Alex, on 14 May 2019Date of Wedding - 27 May 2018 Visited the bull for my daughters wedding on Sunday 27 may and what a great venue. We also booked several rooms and they were very nice. Gary and his wonderful staff looked after us all incredibly well and nothing was too much trouble. We were blessed with wonderful weather which made it even better. We all met up for breakfast the following morning which was lovely. Although ours was the third consecutive wedding of the weekend nothing was under par and everything went like clock work. The meal was amazing as was the disco.
