About The Bulls Head

Travellers wanting a no-fuss base for exploring both the Lake District and the Yorkshire Dales will find The Bulls Head in Milnthorpe a practical choice. It suits those who want somewhere comfortable to return to after a day's walking or driving, rather than a destination in itself, with a restaurant and bar on site for evenings when heading out isn't appealing.

Rooms come with en-suite bathrooms, drinks available in room, and family rooms for those travelling with children. Breakfast is served on site, and the bar and restaurant cover meals without needing to venture out. Free WiFi and 24 hour reception add convenience for guests arriving late or working while away, and free parking can be found nearby.

The surrounding area suits active guests, with walking and cycling routes close by, along with golf and fishing for those wanting a change of pace. Pubs, restaurants and other eateries are within easy reach in Milnthorpe, and there's entertainment nearby too. It's a sensible stopover for touring Cumbria rather than a place to linger indoors.
