The Bull Inn Lodges

The lodges are lovely, as is the pub itself. The staff are friendly and helpful. However, we were very disappointed with the breakfast, which consisted of two squashed almost stale croissants in a plastic container in the fridge, with a choice of rice crispies or cornflakes, yogurt and fruit juice, to be eaten in our room. There was no table service or cooked breakfast option. There was no WiFi in the rooms, nor in the pub itself. The evening meal in the pub was disgusting. My pork was just a lump of fat that I couldn’t even cut with a knife.

We were gifted a wine experience at Chapel Down vineyard so staying overnight at the lodge was ideal. We should have been texted a key code by 3pm on the arrival day but this didn't happen and we had to ask in the pub. The accommodation is clean and basic and is fine for a day or two. A cold continental breakfast is provided croissants, yoghurts, cereal, milk, butter and jam. A cooked breakfast is available in the pub. We also had an evening meal - macaroni cheese and a cheeseburger. Both were substantial and tasty. The room was £87 so value for money.

Stayed here for 3 nights whilst wife was in. Beneden hospital. Excellent accomodations. It is one large room (king-size bed), with separate sofa and writing table chair. There is an ensuite bathroom. Fridge is provided with Croissants, cereals, yoghurt, jams, butter and cheese / ha. All topped up each day. Room is serviced daily. There is a TV for watching from bed / sofa area. It is a very quiet area and I slept very well. There is a small village shop about 150 yards away on high street. Keypad door to access to room and code was sent by text on the day of arrival. Staff friendly and very helpful. Pub is about 30 yards away and they do excellent food / drink. Will definitely return as loads to do in the area. Hemsted Forest only a few minutes away, Bodiam Castle and Steam Railway about 15-20 mins away. Several other National Trust places and RSPB Reserves within 30 - 40 mins.
