A very pleasant comfortable stay.
Pros:

The staff were helpful,friendly and welcoming.The room was comfortable, and the beds were very comfortable.The Hotel is old fashioned but characterful.

Cons:

The only criticism would be the stairs were difficult for my wife as she has recently undergone medical procedures on her leg,Maybe I should have requested a ground floor room ahead of our visit.

Pay more for a bigger room!
Pros:

The Bull Hotel was fabulous, in the heart of Bridport and fantastic live music in the courtyard with a delicious dinner. Breakfast was a feast, we loved the spot and will return.

Cons:

We had chosen a small double bed room, not realising it meant the room was the same size of the bed, so very tight. Nowhere to keep your overnight bag but on the upside, the walk in shower and bathroom were as big as the bedroom!

Pros:

Staff were welcoming & helpful. Food & drink were excellent. Room was clean & comfortable.
Weather was hot, so a fan had been put in the room which was a nice touch. Bridport is a lovely location. I'd recommend the Bull Inn if you're staying in the area.
