A Little Pub History

Built in 1625 and originally known as The Boars Head, this inn has been serving the community of Bereton for almost four hundred years. The Bears Head was a popular posting house on the London to Liverpool turnpike, becoming so busy that in the 18th Century a new wing was built and a range of stables constructed on the opposite side of the road.

Charming Local Accommodation

Our 25 bedroom Innkeeper's Lodge continues The Bears Head's tradition of welcoming travellers. It's our local charm that attracts travellers and historians discovering the Saxon landmarks of Sandbach, as well as diners and drinkers from Bereton and nearby Arclid, Holmes Chapel and Davenport. We also welcome business and leisure travellers to enjoy some of the best bedrooms and accommodation in Cheshire.

Around The Area

Black and white timbered, and ivy-clad, our ancient inn presents a pleasing prospect to villagers in Brereton. Away from the main road and surrounded by fields, this is a former posting house.
