Lovely hotel, comfortable bed, nice shower room. Loved the cow theme which you see throughout the hotel. Friendly welcome. Asked for an early check in which was sorted with no problem.
Super cute establishment! Room was super clean, room service came every day and replenished everything. 2 complimentary bottles of water provided every day. Staff literally bent over backwards to accommodate every step of the way. The restaurant was absolutely fire!!
Great place! Good location for travelling. Great welcome and in a newly refurbished room, very comfortable and quiet despite being near the main road.
Great bar, evening meal and breakfast very good

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
Lovely hotel...room was very comfy, well furnished and clean. Staff are lovely. Very friendly and very helpful.
Overnight stay on route to Snetterton Circuit on Sunday.
Stayed in the Cowshed self contained room just away from building; great facilities and quiet space away from a wedding party on the day
A nice boutique Pub / hotel with a situated just off the A11 easy to get to great food and atmosphere - used by locals and people from the air bases nearby
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.
The only reason that I can't give the Bull Inn 5 stars is due to the really strange lay-out whereby the shower is totally open to the room. Obviously, if you share a room with someone, you're going to know each other very well, but having some privacy when you shower would be a good thing.
