Charming beer garden, Extensive breakfast options, Good wine selection

Noise issues in the mornings disturb the peace!!! Tight room sizes make it a challenge for larger couples and can lead to discomfort. Parking space is uncomfortably narrow, especially during busy times!!!

we stayed for 3 nights and it was amazin! breakfast was lovely with plenty of options like a full works and yummy fruit. rooms were clean and comfy, really made us feel at home. the staff were super friendly and helpful, made our stay even better. the views from the beer garden were just stunning, perfect for chillin out with a drink.

only a couple of small things annoyed me, like the menu could be a bit more varied and one night our food took a bit long to arrive.

perfectly placed for exploring parks and local landmarks

I stumbled upon this charming spot while walking around Kirkby Stephen, and tucked away within its quiet surroundings, the inviting atmosphere and friendly staff truly made my stay memorable, especially with the lovely view from my room and the delicious locally sourced breakfast that started each day right.

would want to stay there again

Our room was compact but had all the essentials, flat-screen TV, tea/coffee maker, heating, and a private bathroom with a double-head shower. The bed was comfy, and the adjustable radiator kept it cozy. We loved the foot bath too. Breakfast was freshly cooked with diverse options. The staff was super friendly and helpful.

The decor at The Black Bull was charming and cozy, with lovely rustic touches that made me feel right at home. I appreciated the accessibility of the common areas, ensuring easy navigation for all guests.

More seating in the common areas would be nice.

cozy, cozy, cozy

I was thoroughly impressed by the homemade meals that filled my tummy with joy! We enjoyed breakfast made to order, and those stunning beer garden views made every meal feel like a mini getaway. Plus, the foot spa in the room? Absolutely genius for unwinding after a long day out!

do recommend 😊❤️

Fantastic food and friendly atmosphere

I had a lovely stay in a compact double room, where I enjoyed a hearty breakfast with freshly cooked options and generous dinner portions that truly impressed me. The staff were exceptionally kind and helpful, particularly in accommodating my dietary needs. the room was a bit tight on space. a little rearranging might improve accessibility to the wardrobe.

Charming place with great food!

We spent a night here and loved it! Super friendly vibe. The owners really made it special, and it was awesome they welcomed our little dogs. The food? Wow! Best Sunday roast I've had! Only thing was the room was a bit small, but it was cozy and spotless. Definitely the place to relax after some exploring.

I enjoyed excellent meals with fresh salads and hearty portions. The staff were friendly and welcoming. My room was spacious and comfortable, making it feel like home. The decor was charming with rustic touches. I highly recommend this place for a cozy getaway. 😊

Oh, the grub was top-notch! Those fresh salads and generous portions had me singing praises. Plus, the staff were super friendly and helpful—made it feel like home. And let's not forget that the room was spacious, giving a proper comfy vibe. Perfect for a two-night escape!

A bit too quiet for my liking, and parking's a right faff—only a few spaces. It worked for a one-night stop, but if you fancy staying longer, you might need to venture out a bit.

Comfortable room, friendly staff. Wi-Fi spotty in some areas.

What made our stay truly memorable was the stunning views from the beer garden—absolutely breathtaking! The food was lovely, but the bar area felt a bit cramped. 😊

Perfect Getaway Spot

Absolutely loved it! The team is super friendly, and breakfast was cooked to order—definitely recommend the full English! My room had a stunning view, comfy with all the essentials. The beer garden was amazing for chilling out with a pint and some tasty pub grub. Just a heads-up, you might need a taxi from the station if you’re bringing bags.

Couple's hidden gem

The food was a revelation, like nothing I’ve had before, the fish and chips were massive and hand cut, good size is underrated in this world. The staff even stored our bikes in a safe place which just felt right and made everything easier.

It wasn’t exactly cheap, but it felt fair at the end of the day.
