We enjoyed our time at the Bulls Head. We checked in after a long travel day and enjoyed supper in the restaurant. The atmosphere and food were great. We had a good nights sleep and enjoyed a great breakfast in the morning.
There is a pub about 15 mins away also called the Bulls Head and we ended up taking the scenic route to get here because of a bad google maps entry on our behalf.

Brilliant accommodation
Really lovely stay. Rooms was characterful and spacious but yet still cosy and really well thought out with plug sockets everywhere you would want them. Staff and service was brilliant, very kind and attentive. Breakfast was delicious too. Would definitely stay here again.

The Bulls Head is a lovely old pub. The building has many interesting features, blended with the comfort of modern living. We had an en suite room which had everything we needed for a comfortable stay.
The pub is friendly and mainly used by people going to eat. Whilst we didn’t have dinner at the pub, the breakfast was fantastic, beautifully laid out and freshly prepared. We went for a full English which was very generous, lighter options are available if you wish.
David is very friendly and paid lots of attention to our needs with wonderful attention to detail.
A great option.

Excellent Hotel
Great place to stay overnight. Lovely room only hampered by a very stiff door mechanism and a broken bath plug. Room great quality, lots of drink options including extra bottled water, and a very comfy bed and large TV. Breakfast excellent and the staff couldn't have been nicer, both on arrival and in the morning. Plan to use for future visits to the area.

Nice location, but our room had a fire escape light above the door that was very bright that it disturbed our sleep. The showwr also dropped loudly in the night which woke us both. We were not asked on check out how our stay was. Stay was okay but would not return. .

This booking was delightful, I could park safely and the welcome was warm and friendly. The room was fine for a short stay being warm and comfy. The evening meal was very good, the service attentive and caring for a lone female traveller.
The bed was clean and comfortable. The breakfast was definitely FULL. All in all the Bulls Head was a good find!
