My wife and I stayed at the Black Bull last week, taking advantage of their midweek cheap B&B deal for 2 nights. I can honestly say we couldn't find fault with anything......a nice welcome to a spotlessly clean and very comfortable room with good en-suite facilities. The food, as always was very nice, the full cooked breakfast was a superb... more

Our recent trip to Coniston was ruined by the attitude and prices of beer in this pub, where they found it acceptable to charge £7.60 for 2 pintsof Fosters larger. We were going to stay for a second night but decided to move on after this disgusting example of taking the pi** out of good honest people, Shame on you... more

Just back after a stay at the Black Bull Inn in Coniston. All i can say is that the staff are wonderful particuarly the owners. The hotel is comfortable and in a great position, only 10 mins from the lake. The breakfasts are fantastic. In addition they have their own brewery which is attached to the pub. Genuinely, the Bluebird... more

Just returned from a wonderful weekend here. We were looking for a dog friendly pub as we own a Chocolate Labrador and this place exceeded our expectations! We have stayed in pubs/hotels where dogs are welcome before but never like this. Although Meg (our dog) wasn't allowed in the restaurant, she was allowed in every other area of the bar... more

First visit to the Lake District. Chose the Black Bull due to the brewery. Room was a cottage out back. Woken at 7am every day by brewery workers. Room was clean and comfy. Shower was strong and hot! Breakfast was the best we've had anywhere. Plenty of it. Bar. Good, well served, selection of real ales. Evening menu was a... more

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
