We discovered a charming and cozy pub after taking our dogs for a walk in the nature reserve. The staff welcomed our dirty, wet dogs into the bar with open arms. We enjoyed delicious drinks and lunch, which came highly recommended. We will definitely be returning in the future. The dogs were a hit with both the owner and the locals. They even received a bowl of water and some treats, making them just as happy as we w... View all feedback.
What WirksWanderer doesn't like about The Black Bull:
Disappointed. We’d had an excellent meal here a year ago while passing through. It was an excellent pub with a great selection of beers, nice staff and great plentiful food. So we decided to stop again this year. What a difference a year makes…… I’m not sure if it’s changed hands but the food was average and the beer selection down to one real ale. It’s a shame because in this latest experience we may not be back. View all feedback.
Rooms could do with a bit updating Bed lovely and comfortable really need to offer breakfast as there is nowhere near to have breakfast
Update: After posting my review, the owner of the hotel asked us to leave. He was abruptly calling my husband during an important business meeting with a request that we must leave ASAP. In the meantime, when I saw the reply to my post, I phoned the hotel to ask what was going on. Steve introduced himself as the owner and said that I should have talked to him before posting such reviews. He mentioned that he hadn 't thrown our stuff on the street, only because we were staying with our baby. When I called my husband, he said we are going to leave as requested. This place wasn’t worth that kind of stress. We left to stay at “The George” instead. Shame we didn’t stay there from the beginning, as this hotel was amazing. No REFUND was provided though. Lovely place and tasty evening meals, but we are disappointed and I would NOT recommend staying here as we were denied from a request to have breakfasts as “other guests didn’t ask for that”. No hairdryer in the whole building, total joke!
They kindly accommodated our timing for our Monday lunch. The portions are very generous and the food really tasty!
A welcoming historic pub in a lovely town, and a fantastic stay. The weather was very kind to us so we got to enjoy the lovely beer garden. We stayed over and our room was cosy, with a comfy bed and a nice powerful shower. We also had an evening meal, there is a good choice of traditional pub grub and what we ordered was delicious (so much so that we decided to stay a bit later to have Sunday lunch before heading back home, this was also superb). The evening we stayed there was also an excellent singer, and we got to make friends with the locals and staff, who were all friendly and super lovely. Last but by no means least, a good ale selection! They have a couple of permanent beers on and then apparently rotate/experiment with other ales regularly, and no complaints from me there!
Recent trip to the Blackbull after years of not visiting. The new owner is incredibly passionate about the pub and you can see the love that has been put back into it. This place holds a lot of childhood memories for me, my mum was there as staff for 14 years! It's refreshing to see someone love it as much as it deserves to be loved! I can't wait to see it thriving again! I'll definitely be back!
