The Queens Head occupies a prominent location on Ashby's main high street, functioning as a traditional bar and family-run 3-star hotel.

The on-site bar serves traditional English dishes like cottage pies and roast of the day, while Ciro's Nightclub offers lively late-night entertainment with free entry for hotel guests. The property provides free Wi-Fi, an outdoor tennis court, and an expansive smoking area, but noise from the nightclub may continue until 04:00.

Nearby landmarks include Willesley Wood (0.5 km) and Moira Furnace (5 km).
