The pub underwent a major refurbishment in November 2014. The interior 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.

Historic Interest

Originally licensed during the 1770s and formerly named The Halfway House as a result of been approximately midway between Leicester and Hinckley. Renamed The Bulls Head in the 1820s possibly due to the fact that it was a roadhouse much frequented by cattle drovers. Part of the Everards estate since 1897.
