As I live nearby The Bushel should be my local, unfortunately there is just not enough staff to take food orders, bring meals and clear up, never mind get a pint, it's appears that the staff are being run ragged. I took some friends in on a saturday lunch time, not very busy but it took ages to get the... More

The Bushel is quite a pleasant town centre pub. It was a pity to have my meal spoilt by "lack of staff training". The young man that was serving my meal dropped some of the food from the platter onto the table,only to pick it up with his fingers put it back on the platter and present it to me.... More

After a disastrous holiday we needed somewhere to kick back and regroup. Found this on late rooms and what a find!!! Lovely room, great service, we were able to check in early and we're currently sat in the bar after a lovely meal and bottle of wine. We like it so much we've booked to stay another night!! An oasis... More

Really smartly laid out place and judging by the website the rooms look nice if you’re staying here. Had an Easter Saturday afternoon drink here and relaxed atmosphere, with mixed clientele. Food looked very good and even at 16:30 there were quite a few people eating. Efficient service and with a smile. Would probably have given it 5 stars if... More

We stayed for just one night at The Bushel but it was enough to convince us that this is a great choice both to stay and to eat. The rooms are quite small, but well thought out, and the bathrooms are nicely sized. Everything was spotlessly clean and neat, and the bed was comfortable. We had a nice view over... More

The whole place gives an atmosphere of being... More

My husband and I stayed overnight at The Bushel on March 15th for his birthday. We arrived at the hotel late morning and even though it was before we were due to check in we were allowed to park in the carpark. The room was tastefully decorated and immaculately clean. We had dinner at the restaurant in the evening and... More

Had a one night stay in the Bushell happened to be Mothering Sunday so assumed we would struggle to get a table for lunch, but no such problem. We were offered a table with no problem. Food was average. Room was beautiful and very clean. Impressed on the standard of bedding and the very comfy bed. Staff were friendly and... More
