A very cosy and comfortable stay and the staff were amazingly attentive, they just couldn't do enough for us! Our vegetarian breakfasts were delicious and substantial, kept us going all day. The location for our one night stay was very convenient, being a good halfway point on the south coast between Newhaven, where we needed to be on the first day, and Southampton on the second day.

We had a wonderful stay here. The rooms were spotless, spacious, and very comfortable, with a modern ensuite. The pub itself was charming in a beautiful area,the staff were very friendly and helpful. The breakfast was made to order with a variety of choices and the dinner was absolutely delicious. As a group of four having a ladies get away it was absolutely perfect. We would all highly recommend a visit here.

Comfortable room and great breakfast

We had a nice room in the courtyard of the pub. It was quite simple, but had everything we needed and was comfortable. The breakfast we had was excellent - especially the butcher's sausages.

Small character pub. Rooms across garden, small but clean. Well appointed bathroom. Bed a little firm for my taste, very thin small quilt for a double bed, would not have covered 2 people. Gluten free items on menu that could not be served for dinner. Not possible to create a full main course from items available.

One night stay

Very welcoming staff, and food was excellent both breakfast and dinner. The only reason I’ve marked it down a little was the mattress in one of our rooms didn’t fit the bed frame! The mattress was a double on king size bed frame. I also felt that the taped up loft hatch in our room was untidy looking which is a real shame

Friendly, but chaotic welcome! We were asked to order our breakfast, but there weren't any breakfast menus left so the person who checked us in hoped he remembered everything we could have! The room was fine, needs updating, something the owner told us over breakfast they would be doing. Breakfast was very nice, perfect poached eggs and delicious mushrooms, and the fresh fruit was welcomed. The owners were both very friendly at breakfast - and helpful about where to visit locally.

Lovely stay in West Sussex

We enjoyed our stay at The Bulls Head. Chose the location for a few days break close to Chichester and the Coast. The accommodation was just right for a few days away. Nice location - if the weather had been better, we would have loved to explore the public footpaths nearby. We walked to Fishbourne Palace which makes for a good day out. We went to Chichester by car and really explored the City - fascinating Museum there. Went by train to Portsmouth - railway station is also walkable. Accommodation was just right - newly renovated room, good shower, comfortable bed. Breakfast was very good - freshly cooked, local ingredients. Also ate in the Restaurant three nights - wide ranging menu, freshly cooked. Can particularly recommend the Fish n Chips and the Fish Pie. Always a good sign when the locals choose to eat in their local pub. Hosts and all staff we met made us feel welcome. Would definitely return!

We stayed 3 nights a week ago. Our room was comfortably furnished and spotlessly clean. Looked newly renovated. Perfect to use as a base to explore the area. Breakfast was delicious and there was plenty of it. Very happy!

Great local pub, well located for Chichester and .

Excellent pub on the outskirts of Chichester. Our room was at the back of the pub in what might have been originally stables. Converted into very nice rooms with en-suite. Very quiet when we stayed, but might be noisy in the summer as next to the pub garden. We enjoyed cooked breakfast for the two days we stayed and a evening meal on one night. The pub was popular with locals for lunch and dinner, which says a lot. Convenient for local walks and the Roman Palace. We got the bus from outside the pub into town rather than drive £5 return. Staff were very friendly and helpful. I would visit again.

Good quality quaint country inn

Enjoyed a lovely, romantic mini break here. Very clean room (no.4 in the garden) great shower pressure, working tv, tea, coffee, hair dryer, iron, easy check-in. Excellent full english cooked breakfast and fruit cereal etc. Although its a pub inn its a very peaceful room because the pub is more of a gastro pub and everyone went home by 10pm so we had an extremely good night sleep. Recommended!

We have just returned from a 3 night stay as a surprise birthday treat for my husband at the Bull’s Head and have had the most enjoyable time. I cannot praise it enough. Of all the various types of accommodation we have stayed in over the years, I have to say this comes out on top. The food was absolutely excellent, having eaten in every evening and both trying different meals each time. The breakfasts are to die for & will be sadly missed when I return to my morning porridge! The actual pub is very old and maintains all the charm of its ancient history- so cosy, with little ‘nooks’, plenty of seating to enjoy your food. It has a very friendly atmosphere which reflects on all the bar & waiting staff. They work extremely hard & are so friendly & helpful. The outside seating area is perfect, plenty of places to sit & enjoy last of evening sunshine. We stayed in a converted barn - one of four - I think it is next in line to be refurbed. The owner and his wife Nicki are so friendly & nothing was too much trouble - and I must say - after the few days we were there, made us feel as though we’d known them forever. Thank you so much for our stay & you certainly haven’t seen the last of us! Sue & Rick
