went here for a birthday weekend with friends and my boyfriend. 3 rooms in total each with 2 people sleeping in them. The location was good as was the price for 2 nights. The bedrooms were very old fashioned, the beds uncomfortable and the sheets very worn. We did manage to sleep and enjoy going to the theme park, the... More

I chose this place because we were coming back from a day at Alton Towers. I booked it three weeks in advance, it was chosen becuse of the Proximity and because they had a nice looking restaurant where after a long day we could have a nice meal and a couple of drinks. I checked if the restaurent was open... More

Absolute life saver hotel, got stuck in heavy snow, after half a mile walk to the hotel we were met with superb service and friendliness x thanks so much for the staff for making us so welcome at a moments notice. Even finding me a hair dryer to dry my wet hair was no trouble. Lovely food, excellent service and... More

My fiance and I have been fortunate enough to travel quite a bit, staying in hostels and b&bs around the world and I have to say this has to be one of, if not the worst places we have ever stayed! We required a room due to a friend having a wedding at Alton castle, a short walk from this... More

We dined here whilst staying at Splash landings Hotel, the hotel food was awful and stumbled upon the Bulls Head. OMG the staff the food the atmosphere was fantastic. Real grub with real taste with great prices. It was mine and my nephews birthday, they allowed us to cut our cake and even gave us some cream to enjoy with... More

My girlfriend and I stayed here whilst visiting the scare-fest at Alton towers. I don't usually write reviews, however, I read up on this place before we arrived and now I feel the need to say my piece! Our room was very clean, the staff were very attentive, and for £69 I felt like my hard earned money was well... More

Stayed one night in "Family accomodation" The rooms look as if they were last decorated in the 60s! The accomodation is 2 doors down from the pub and you are overwhelmed by the musty smell when you first open the door. There is an extemly steep stair to the 2 bed attic in the family room, this would be completly... More

.......loved this place. We stayed at The Malthouse B&B (heartily recommend) just around the corner and they suggested a few places but as the Bull's Head was close and a real ale pub (we are CAMRA members) we spent our first evening there and their food ensured our second evening! Had we been there longer we'd have worked through the... More

My boyfriend and I were staying in the nearby B&B Trough Ivy House (would definitely recommend) and were looking for somewhere to have dinner on our first night. The owner of the B&B had a menu for the Bull's head as well as a couple of other pubs but we settled on here due to the varied menu and decent... More
