Ricky

Fantastic staff. Great room with decor. Very comfortable bed. Only let down by a very dirty, previously used toilet brush. Didn't get to try their food from their main menu as my partner was being very fussy and wanted pie and mash or sausages and mash and it wasn't an option on menu, but the breakfast was delicious.

Not close to the AF bases

Handy spot, little out of the way. There's another Bull Inn within the borough of Bury St Edmunds close to the air force bases that I thought I was booking, so beware if you're visiting military family.

Lovely stay with excellent fresh food.

Lovely village pub/restaurant. Great service from front of house manager. Young man, very friendly and welcoming. Lovely evening meal, fair prices, fresh vegetables. Room clean, warm and cosy. Good shower and bathroom facilities. Outside, Iron stairs to room so just be aware. We would definitely stay again.

I absolutely love the gardens and the surrounding village is charming. Really lovely to feel like you are in a quiet secluded spot that is surprisingly close to main routes and Bury St Edmunds. Woolpit is lovely and The Bull Inn was great.

A country pub .

Woolpit is a I lovely little hamlet . No other eating places apart from a chip shop so we ate at the Bull . We personally didn’t like the menu choice and found the cooked breakfast a bit greasy again little choice. No eggs Benedict, Omelettes etc on offer . There was the usual cereal choices but only plain yogurt and no pastries. Bananas were badly bruised so overall we were a little disappointed.
