Historic 17th-century pub hotel with locally sourced cuisine in Chichester
Accommodation
The Bulls Head offers four en-suite rooms in a converted farm building behind the main pub, each with a private patio facing the garden. Rooms are equipped with flat-screen TVs, bottled water, and handmade biscuits, while the bathrooms feature powerful showers. Guests have access to free parking on-site and a dedicated outdoor seating area beside their rooms.
Dining
The on-site restaurant serves a daily changing menu of British cuisine, with an emphasis on fresh seafood and locally sourced produce. Breakfast includes a full English/Irish option as well as vegetarian and gluten-free choices, all cooked to order. The bar stocks a selection of cask-conditioned ales including Fullers ESB, alongside a range of wines and craft beers.
Location
The hotel sits 2.9 km from Chichester Train Station and within easy reach of Chichester Cathedral and Fishbourne Roman Palace. Goodwood Racecourse and Motor Circuit are 7.8 km away, offering horse racing and motorsport events throughout the year. A regular bus service from outside the pub provides direct access to Chichester city centre, avoiding the need for car parking there.
Pet & Family
The Bulls Head is a dog-friendly establishment, with dog biscuits available at the bar and pets welcome in designated areas of the pub. Family rooms accommodate groups, and children's meals are available from the restaurant menu. The garden provides a secure space for children to play while adults enjoy the outdoor seating.
Entertainment & Activities
Guests can watch live sports screenings in the pub, including football and horse racing from Goodwood. The surrounding area offers cycling routes, walks to Bosham and Dell Quay, and canoeing and windsurfing opportunities along the coast. On cooler evenings, the pub's log burners provide warmth without relying solely on central heating.
