See more about this pub on WhatPub, CAMRA's national pub guide.

Originally licensed during the 1770’s and formerly named The Halfway House as a result of been approximately midway between Leicester and Hinckley. Renamed The Bulls Head in the 1820’s possibly due to the fact that it was a roadhouse much frequented by cattle drovers. Part of the Everards estate since 1897 the pub underwent a major refurbishment in November 2014. Inside consists of four distinct areas known as: the tap room; snug; public bar; restaurant. Exposed ceiling timbers, quarry tile and wood flooring and log burning stoves all add to the rural ambiance. Out the back is a small wood decked veranda leading onto a large enclosed lawned garden with picnic tables and childrens play equipment. Regular buses for Leicester or Hinckley stop right outside.
