The Bull

Historic Comfort Meets Concert Convenience in the Chilterns

Modern amenities meet classic charm at The Bull, a beautifully maintained 17th-century hotel overlooking Gerrards Cross Common. Set in landscaped gardens and just a short stroll from the town centre and rail station, this peaceful retreat offers a relaxing escape while keeping you connected to London’s bustling music scene.

Why Concert-goers love it

You're just a 10-minute walk from Gerrards Cross rail station, which gets you to London Marylebone in under 30 minutes—ideal for catching a gig and avoiding city centre hotel prices. After the show, return to a quiet countryside setting where you can unwind. With free private parking, easy access to the M40 and M25, and flexible check-in from 3pm, it’s a stress-free base for any music adventure.

Who this Hotel is great for

Groups of friends heading into the city for a show will appreciate the spacious grounds and relaxing bar. Solo travelers chasing bucket-list artists can enjoy the calm after the concert. Couples looking for a weekend escape will love the historic charm and garden views. If you’re a fan who values a quiet night’s sleep after the encore, this is your place. And with competitive pricing, it’s a win for budget-conscious music fans too.

Food and Drink Options

The hotel offers All Day Dining in the Conservatory Lounge, ideal for late-night bites post-show. There’s also a modern European menu in the Beeches Restaurant and a hearty full English breakfast to help you recover the morning after. While there's no 24/7 room service, the on-site dining covers most cravings.

Nightlife Options

While the hotel itself is more serene than scene, the Conservatory Lounge pours local beers in a cozy setting—perfect for a post-concert nightcap. For more action, hop on a train to London or check out the pubs in Gerrards Cross town centre, just a short walk away.

What People Say

Guests love the peaceful setting, friendly service, and the mix of historic character with modern comforts. Many highlight the easy access to London as a top perk, along with free parking and excellent breakfast. Clean, comfortable rooms and beautiful garden views round out a well-liked stay.

Areas for Improvement

Some guests mention the decor in a few rooms feels a little dated, and there’s no air conditioning—worth noting for summer stays. The hotel’s quiet vibe is a plus for relaxation, but if you’re after all-night energy, you’ll need to head into town.

The Bottom Line

With fast rail links, peaceful surroundings, and solid dining options, The Bull is a smart, relaxing base for concert-goers who want the best of both worlds.
