You want to visit - You have this in

Situated less than two miles from Bolton town centre near to Doffcocker Lodge, which is a well known nature reserve, this traditional pub with a modernised bar area but which retains the wonderful snug complete with bell pushes. A new extension with disabled access leading to a garden area also has a pool room. Convenient for RSPB visitors to nearby Doffcocker Lodge. Often referred to as the Little Cocker in deference to the larger Doffcocker Inn across the road.
