The Bull and Bridport could not have been nicer...

Super-charming little Inn I picked somewhat at random from internet recommendations of historic hotels. The room was wonderful, the view overlooking the street was great. Loved the quaint little town, a street market the morning of my departure made everything just the more memorable and enjoyable.

We had a very pleasant three night stay at the Bull, the rooms are all different and decorated in various styles. The courtyard is potentially a very attractive space to sit, drink, eat and socialise, however it was a tad chilly during our stay and it needed a thorough tidy up to realise its full potential. The staff were great, helpful, polite, attentive but not intrusive. The food was of a good standard and breakfast was superb. There are plenty of local attractions and interesting places to visit providing you have your own transport, however being located in Bridport itself everywhere in the town is within walking distance. One word of caution when booking establish where your room is located, - I didn’t and found myself at the most distant room, which would not be a problem if you don’t have health issues as there is no lift and lots of stairs! Thoroughly recommend a stay here.

Great place to stay

This hotel really fits in with the town it resides in, Bridport. It has some timeless qualities, and caters well for different generations. Popular it is. Perfect crispy battered haddock and chips.

Shame could be lovely

Disappointing stay, both rooms not clean dust so thick could write in it. Room not cleaned entirely before arrival other peoples rubbish in bin and throw on bed had tissue stuck on it and tissues on the floor under desk. Tried to order avocado on toast as per menu not available on 2 days we were there. Inconsistent cooking one day spinach seasoned next day wet no seasoning running water into rest of food inedible. Breakfast items either over or under cooked on same plate. Poor quality ingredients. Generally hotel needs renovation doors all scratched on room marks on walls sold as renovated master room yet showing signs of needing repainting and holes in the carpet. Great shower and bathroom Good location with parking. Needs better check in area. Not value over priced for condition.
