Walking

The Bulls Head is fortunate in having a myriad of circular walks that can be embarked upon from the door, or the less energetic may wish to simply take a stroll around this delightful village, possibly stopping to feed the ducks on the pond, or to inspect the village well

Whatever your choice, you can be sure of a hearty meal and friendly welcome on your return to The Bulls Head

Gliding

From the high escarpment behind the village you can either walk or drive the short distance to enjoy the spectacle of gliders taking off and landing at the Derbyshire and Lancashire Gliding Club.  On a fine summers day this is an ideal location to take a picnic and relax while enjoying uninterrupted views towards the far horizon, amid aerobatic displays by these graceful aircraft 

Other Pursuits

Other activities include Pony Trekking, Golf and Fishing, and naturally the Peak District is a haven for those wishing to explore on foot, with opportunities ranging from high moorland hikes to gentle strolls along the Limestone Dales
