Black Bull Hotel

Music very loud downstairs on Saturday night. Could hear it even with ear plugs in. Toilet flush broke. No breakfast despite being relatively expensive. Windows broken and very difficult to open. Wish we’d booked a local B&B. Provision for bike storage.

Made to feel welcome Overnight stay, check in seamless comfortable room can’t comment on the breakfast as had to leave early Can’t fault the staff and Full on Fran is a star 🌟 😁

My husband and myself came with my brother in law we stopped from Christmas eve till 27th December. What a lovely place staff were amazing . Special mention to Dave and Fran the bar staff. Very friendly. We also had breakfast every morning which Fran made for us lovely breakfast . Also had Christmas dinner made by Tina and Deana (sorry if I spelt it wrong) all I can say is wow. Amazing dinner thankyou . My husband is a celiac and it was no problem for any of the meals. The whole team worked together and made our Christmas. The rooms were clean . Thanks again all of you we will be back . Jo ,Dave and Richard

Okay for hijers Just right for our needs, hiking the Coast to Coast. Could have done with a bit more breakfast but hey…..

Avoid I called a few days before to see if we could have early check in or leave our bags somewhere as we were going to a wedding before the usual check in time. I was told no as the room was in use, I was then told that ‘everyone else from the wedding were staying 2 nights to avoid this’. We decided to then use a friends room to get changed in and leave our bags in. When we’re arrived we were met with very slow check in service, this is a pub but the pub was closed and staff were available but no one seemed to know what was going on or who was doing what. We were eventually told we could have the keys ti our room as no one had stated in it the night before, seems the last in the phone was just being awkward. The room was small but that was not an issue for our needs. The room needs serious updating/improvements: -smelled musty/damp -mould & damp around window frames -shower curtain full of mould -dirty walls and light switches -stupidly cold or stupidly hot shower, no in between which was crazy as it was a mixer tap -selection of teas coffee but only one breakfast tea and only decaf coffee provided. -bed very uncomfortable and creaky For room only we found £110 to be a lot for what was provided.
