An amazing pub with really helpful staff. The food was excellent, I ordered the chicken gyros and it was amazing. My friends had the fish and chips which they also said was equally as good. Portions were large too which is always a plus. Definitely recommend if you’re in the area.

It was my wedding on the morning of the 2nd January. I decided to find somewhere to have a celebratory lunch nearby. The Bulls Head had some good reviews so I contacted them. I requested a bottle of champagne to be put on ice for my arrival. I was quoted £26 which is about what I would expect to pay. On the morning of our wedding, I received an email to say it was prosecco. At 11am, I replied to say that it must not be prosecco. I received no reply. When we arrived at 1 pm, the prosecco was on the table! When I returned it to the bar, the lady just shrugged her shoulders and said that was all they had and they didn’t have champagne. There were a couple of problems with the meals provided and I again went to the bar to explain this privately. I was quite rudely told by the woman there that she had asked us twice if everything was OK. I explained that on such a ‘happy’ occasion I did not want to make a fuss in front of everyone. This was a very unsatisfactory lunch. The pub had two hours to inform me that they didn’t have any champagne and I would have gone to the shops myself to buy a bottle. The contact later said that £26 was a fair price for prosecco even though I could have bought one for £7. On leaving, I was firmly told “goodbye”. The only thing that was missing was “and don’t come back”. I won’t!

A lovely little pub, in a beautiful village. Called in for lunch after a walk and were so glad we did! It looked inviting from the outside and inside it was really cosy with a nice log burner and friendly, welcoming staff. We all enjoyed our food, especially the Gamekeepers Pie, which was honestly one of the most delicious meals, I've ever eaten! So hearty and tasty and really generous portions. We'll definitely be back.

Only live a few minutes away but it was our first visit, very Christmassy outside, very nice vibe lovely and busy. Our service was excellent and our meals delicious. We left a scarf by mistake and they rang me the next day to say they’d found it.

All 3 courses were excellent. Lovely atmosphere in this cosy pub, all the staff and landlord were welcoming and friendly.

We have lived just down the road from this beautiful little pub for the last few years and had never been until tonight. It was lovely, very festive, the staff were very welcoming, the decor is so homely and familiar and the atmosphere was perfect, buzzing but overcrowded. The food is lovely, everything was spot on and seemed very fresh and homemade. We feel sad that we hadn’t visited until now but so glad and lucky that we have found this lovely little pub right on our doorstep. Thanks so much.

Cosy, great atmosphere, wonderful service and delicious food. Just what we needed after a 10 mile hike in the peaks! Highly recommend.

The Bulls Head is a lovely country pub with an open fire. The staff are friendly and welcoming, a service with a smile. The Sunday roast has to be one of the best I've had in a long time. I will definitely be returning for another Sunday lunch!
Love this place, our go to place! The home cooked food is delicious every time and the staff are brilliant! 5 star from me!

This is our second time to returning to Ashford in the last two years and we made sure to come back to the Bull after how fantastic we found it the first time. It seems to be getting better each time we come, the service and greeting as soon as you walk through the door is welcoming, the options on the menu are traditional with a modern twist- we thought this menu was even better than when we last visited. Thank you to all of your team, you deserve all the accolades you get!

We visited this Sunday just gone after a visit to chatsworth house upon seeing all the amazing reviews and a member of our party visiting before. The experience from start to finish was very disappointing we were put on a small table that would normally just fit 4 people the 5 of us we squashed to the point we had to stack our drinks, cutlery and the condiments on the edge of bar where we were sat just to fit our plates on when the food arrived. The food arrived very quickly which was great however the food may be the worse roast we have had in a very long time if not ever. The flavour of everything was very tasteless to the point it tasted of nothing included the mountains of gravy that was on the plate. At no point did a member of staff ask how the food was not whilst we were eating and not when the plates were cleared which would have been very obvious as 2 of us had no more than a couple of mouthfuls and the other 3 left half there meal too.

Friendly staff, cosy snug bar with open fire. Lovely atmosphere. The pub is right in the middle of the village and ideal for us.

We called in on a cold Thursday night after our Chatsworth visit. It was busy and welcoming with great food. Service was prompt and friendly. I liked the limited menu, with enough choice for everyone. Excellent range of real ales which helped to pass a great couple of hours before heading home. If you’re down this way- give it a try.
