The Bull and Swan

Beautiful hotel. The staff were so welcoming and friendly. Our room was lovely, loved the decor, the beds were very comfy and the small touches like the lamps and the radio being on when we arrived and the homemade cookies made it extra special. Breakfast the next morning was very good. Lovely hotel in a lovely town. We will be back.

We went as two families meeting up for fun stay . We were really looking forward to meet up . The hotel is beautiful. It’s old and filled with history. It’s quirky and unique. We had lovely large room for 3 of us . My husband, my 13 year old daughter and myself. As did our friends . The rooms are close to main road so as expected there was noise . As list building I knew they could not do anything to change this. The furnishings in bedroom, bathroom and whole hotel was outstanding . The staff were very helpful and friendly . The only problem was the beds . We had booked family room and was expecting bed for my 13 yr old . There was a camp bed at end of large double bed . I can only describe it as more of a sun lounger with very thin cover to lay on made up . My 13 year old had very little sleep as it was very uncomfortable. As adults it was not stable or strong enough for one of us to safely sleep on . My daughter fell out of it . Because she was unable to sleep had impact on us all. I would advise in future family rooms should have bed in them as stated .This was not a bed by any stretch or imagination . Could easily be resolved by a simple mattress on wheels under the large bed could be pull out for use and would be safer and more comfortable. We would return but as a couple . We loved the ambiance and friendliness. Such a shame re beds in family rooms .

Excellent service and lovely staff who were very attentive. The room we had was large and extremely comfortable including a lovely mattress. The food served (evening meal and breakfast) was delicious and well prepared. We would definitely stay there again.

Historic building full of character & charm, twisty stairs & low beams. Staff were all fantastic, cheerful & very helpful. We were lucky & were able to park almost outside, but the option of free parking just up the road was good. The main road is very busy which meant that with a room on the front with the windows open on a hot night, it was very noisy. There was a fan provided, which was also very noisy. Food was very good, with fresh ingredients from their own veg & herb garden at the back. Dinner here is worth considering; though my pork schnitzel was dry, the burgers are first class. Breakfast too was very tasty. Very central location.

The attention to detail was absolutely spot on. We took our two dogs and they were made very welcome. Great room and to have fresh milk for tea, should be standard large bathroom and lovely food. We are going back end of December. Town is great to walk round and lovely local walks.

Just returned from a couple of days away in Stamford for our Silver Wedding Anniversary. We stayed at the wonderful Bull and Swan. The hotel is lovely made extra special by the most friendly welcoming team. Everyone was wonderful, massive thanks to Jack who looked after us so well, going the extra mile to make sure we had everything we needed…even when I was being slightly precious about toiletries.. The lady this morning, served our breakfast with a friendly smile….brilliant. The managers and everyone simply top class. We will absolutely return.. Thanks Team Bull and Swan..hospitality at its best.
