Great Location, brilliant service (the owner had taken time out to ask if everything was OK, a great touch) and room was clean and comfortable. Great choice on the food menu as well.

A very pleasant looking hotel with a bar area that although cosy was a tad dated. We booked a small double room which should have actually read miniscule double. Compared to similar hotels in the area this was expensive at £180 for two people for 2 nights so it would have been nice to have been allocated one of the other vacant larger rooms. The breakfasts were pretty dire unfortunately. No menu provided and instead we were asked what we would like for breakfast. Hmm...good question when there's no menu. So we were offered cereal. Who knows what was in the cupboard?? So we opted for an orange juice and an apple juice. Both concentrated variety. Then, the full English, which, was fair apart from some very cheap sausage, 1 and a half mushrooms and tinned tomatoes, not fresh. Coffee was excellent. The host who is very friendly was very chatty throughout our breakfast althought she was very nice.

Relaxing long weekend "away from it all".

Absolutely delightful. Breakfast is indeed exceptional, the room is very comfortable and has everything that we needed for a three-day weekend. Netflix an unexpected bonus after a good walk in the nice countryside on the doorstep. Dinner was also excellent plus the Bangladeshi restaurant in Swadlincote provided one of the best "Indian" dinners in a very long time. Location is quiet and safe and Becky and the Staff couldn't be more helpful or friendly.

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.

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!

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. .

Lovely little pub accommodation, the room was spacious and the bed comfy. I would have liked an iron in the room, and a more powerful shower, as well as an earlier check in. The breakfast was lovely, as was the owner. A nice little place to stay.

A great place to stay

Lovely stay with excellent staff who were very welcoming and attentive during our one night stay. The accommodation was clean and well presented, although a little tired in places, which was absolutely fine for our stay. The bed was a small double, which was a little soft for my liking, although other reviews say the beds were great, so very much a personal preference. Don't let that put you off as out time here was great. The food is lovely in the pub, and as I said at the beginning, the staff are excellent and really make you feel appreciated. The host makes a fantastic breakfast too, and deserves to do well in her business, which we will return to at some point.
