Company info

Norma and John acquired 'The Bull's Head' in 2006, and along with their son Richard and an incredible team of dedicated staff, have established a busy, welcoming and friendly ambience, for visitors and locals alike. When the opportunity arises, John sometimes gets to play with his old band, and when Norma removes the electronic tag from his ankle he can be found on the golf course, ever trying to improve his handicap. Son Richard is an ex-professional snooker player, and spends most of his leisure time with his wife and three wonderful children. Unable to dedicate the practice time required to play snooker at the same level he attained, Richard plays 8 ball Pool, and in 2016 reached the semi-finals of the 8 Ball World Championships. Norma loves to spend any spare time with her grandchildren, the occasional visit to the spa, and has always had a penchant for good food!
