Pleasant staffWell-kept room
RobertWe stayed here for one night after a day in Winchester. A nice enough hotel, with staff pleasant enough. The room we stayed in was small but well kept. The main issue we had was that the room was that next to a staff run…
Verified travelerBeyond welcoming
Lovely rooms with a recently made over bathroom. Very comfortable mattress and bedding. Highlight has to be food and service.

Lovely place to stay whilst walking the South Downs Way, the staff were all brilliant, so friendly and attentive and couldn't have done more to make sure we were happy.
EliseWonderful place to stay and have a delicious dinner.
Thank you!
MelissaDirt fell from the ceiling onto my head while brushing teeth. Limited facilities in room to make a tea and dirty glasses.

Questions about The Bucks Head
What time is check-in and check-out at The Bucks Head?
Check-in is from 3:00 PM. Check-out is by 11:00 AM. If you're arriving late, tell us and we'll ask the property to hold the room.
Does The Bucks Head allow pets?
Yes — the property states that pets are allowed. Size, number and fee are set by the property rather than by us, so say you're bringing a pet when you book and we'll confirm the terms before anything is charged.
Is there parking at The Bucks Head?
Parking is listed among the property's facilities. Whether it's free and whether a space can be reserved varies, so we check it against your dates rather than promise it here.
Is breakfast included at The Bucks Head?
Breakfast is offered at the property. Whether it's included depends on the rate — the board type is shown on each room once you put your dates in.
Does The Bucks Head have Wi-Fi?
Yes — internet access is listed among the property's facilities.
Does The Bucks Head have wheelchair accessible rooms?
The property lists step-free or accessible facilities. That flag is the one least able to settle the question: a hotel can carry it and still have a step at the entrance, or a bath rather than a roll-in shower, and it does not say whether the accessible room is free on your dates. Tell us what you need and we'll ask the property directly rather than reading you the flag.
How do I book The Bucks Head?
Put your dates in above and book online, or call (888) 789-8585 and we'll do it for you — including things a booking form can't handle, like a block of rooms, a monthly rate or an invoice for your employer.
