Arrived at the hotel soaking wet from a day's walking, and it was just what we needed. Comfortable room with much needed hot water in the bath and radiators. Real pull is the lovely beer which was well deserved and received after a long day on the Cumbria way! Food in the pub was good. more

I was looking for an old pub with good beer and better than basic accomodation with good walks nearby ... and I found all three. The majority of the rooms are at the back of the pub in a separate building, and I'm glad we got those rather than being above the pub itself. The room had great views over... more

I'm writing this in response to reading the reviews here so far. This used to be a 'regular' place for us - after Foot and Mouth we explored elsewhere, but felt guilty and so decided to go back in spite of the prices which had become a little 'silly'. We stayed in 'our' room in the Annex, and were pleased... more

We chose the Black Bull in Coniston, we had one of the cottages at the back. Again, I am happy to recommend it and not just because they brew the wonderful Bluebird Bitter behind the pub. The cottages have good sized en-suites, breakfasts are not for dieters, the full monty will keep you going all day. Good tourist centre, walk... more

We had a lovely couple of days at the Black Bull. We stayed in one of the converted stable rooms at the back of the pub, so we had our own entrance. The room was good sized and comfortable with a large en suite. £90.00 per night is a bit pricey but the Lakes isn't a cheap place to stay... more

Stopped here for lunch on Thurs 20th July, it was some years since we had eaten here but we had good memories - What A Disappointment ! ! ! The cheapest sandwiches were £3.95 each, we ordered one ham & one beef. When they arrived they each consisted of 2 slices of dry bread from a sliced loaf filled with... more

Just had our second stay at the Black Bull and have decided it's a hotel of two halves. On our first visit, we were given a large recently refurbished room, where you could hear the nearby brook running just beneath the window, and the service was impeccable. Pricey at £90 per room, but worth it. On our recent visit, we... more
