The Altrincham.co.uk verdict
The Bulls Head has always been a handsome Hale Barns landmark, but its characterful interiors make it worth a closer look. Think mahogany panelling, leather seating, herringbone floors and even a taxidermy bull, with the atmospheric Old Boys Bar retaining the feel of a traditional pub. There's a more ambitious food offering too, while the adjoining 35-bedroom hotel makes it a useful option before an early flight from Manchester Airport.
