The Bull is a unique combination of traditional pub with superb modern cuisine. Staff make you feel valued and wait on you in what can only be described as “complete”. Come here and leave stress behind.

Had a lovely stay, we booked The Bull for our trip to Newmarket races, the staff are very helpful and polite, the room ( The Flying Cow’ was beautifully decorated and the shower was worth the price of our stay alone !! Breakfast was cooked beautifully and was extremely satisfying. We will definitely be staying here again !

6/10 Good

Room was spotlessly clean and well stocked with coffee and tea and biscuits, was no fan in the room but went to reception and they brought me 1 ,only downside was it was a very warm night had the windows open and could hear the traffic from the busy main road outside all night long ,hence hardly any sleep ,but apart from that a good stay .

What an excellent pub 👌 I stayed here just for 1 night due to working in the Ambulance Station close by. My room was clean and excellent decor. 2 bottles of water (which is rare nowadays) Biscuits with excellent selection of teas. Fantastic bathroom with premium soap/shower gel, etc. A walk in shower 🚿 with ample of space. Bar Staff are fantastic, very helpful with food/recommendations and extremely polite (a lovely steak) compliments to the chief. Breakfast was served in the restaurant with fantastic choices. Definitely stay again 💯 Andy.

Great quirky pub, restaurant and hotel. Ideal for us on our way to Norwich. Have stayed before, so was looking forward to going back. Delicious food, lovely, comfy beds in fun 'cow' themed rooms. The place is spotlessly clean and the staff are wonderful. Will definitely stay there again, on our next trip to that part of the world.

Wonderful treatment, friendly and comfortable.

This was a really nice place to stay. Very friendly drag, a nice bed, and easy to get to. There was good available, but I got in late. Nice courtyard in from to relax in, and would highly recommend.

The Bull Inn is a characterful property, very well placed for visits to Snetterton racing circuit and this was the purpose of our visit. We found the Inn very comfortable, clean and the restaurant was very good for dinner and breakfast. Parking is free, plentiful and immediately outside the courtyard rooms. I’d be very happy to return to The Bull Inn if I’m in the area again.

4/10 Fair

Room was tiny, stairs going up and down felt unsafe due to slope on the tread, bed was very small for two people, staff were friendly and helpful, breakfast was average
