The Bull of Brenchley, Brenchley

I stayed at The Bull as a friend was getting married close by. I found the place to be a wonderful example of what an old village pub should be. The bar was cosy and inviting with a real log fire and a delicious glass of cold white wine. I booked to stay overnight (despite a previous poor review) and what a lovely room I had. Full of old world charm, with a big comfy bed, sumptuous linen and pillows and wonderful antique furniture with a nice 'worn in' feel. The couple that now run the pub were very friendly and accomodating. I was staying there alone and they made me feel very welcome and safe, plus serving a delicious breakfast & fresh coffee. If you're looking for new age chic, double glazing and heated floor tiles in the bathroom, then this is not the place to visit. However if you want a roomy traditional B&B, with the odd creaking floor board, a homely feel and reasonable prices, then I advice definately checking this place out.
