Just off the A17 east of Holbeach and close to Long Sutton,
The Bull has a long history of serving both the local community and the
numerous tourists who visit this pleasant part of South
Lincolnshire. Behind the Grade II listed Georgian frontage, this
handsome village pub has a delightful bar and snug and a separate 60-cover
restaurant. Photos of the pub in days gone take the eye in the bar, and other
memorabilia include a framed option sheet for the auction of the premises in
1832 (it fetched £50, with a few fields thrown in).
Hosts Frank and Stephen Round look after their customers
from noon to midnight every day of the week, providing a good range of drinks
(London Pride is the resident real ale) and well-presented, well-priced
home-cooked favourite pub dishes. Four bedrooms with 17th century wood
panelling and furniture in keeping with the inn's age offer a very pleasant,
civilised base for touring a region that is rich in visitor attractions. Notable
among these are the Peter Scott Walk, the Butterfly & Falconry Park
at Long Sutton and King John's Lost Jewels Triail. It's a great part of the
world for walkers and cyclists, and country lanes to the north lead to the
villages of Holbeach St Matthew and Gedny Drove and the marshland of The Wash.
