Comfortable place to stay
Very comfortable and spacious modern rooms in a block to the side of the pub so quiet too. A huge bed. Staff were very good, with special thanks to Luke.

Two great nights in June.
What a hidden gem the Black Bull Inn is. Lovely private and very comfortable accommodation.
Breakfast that was included was tremendous and the two evening meals we had were so great and tasty.
The super friendly and helpful staff made the stay perfect. We will certainly return when we are next visiting from Australia.

Great pub,
Fabulous inside and good food. Great service and rooms are to a good standard. Prices a touch high, but I’ve stayed in much worse and paid much more. Very attentive crew, who go out of their way to oblige. I would definitely stay again.
Overall, good to very good. Worth making the effort to visit and stay.

Disappointing
The room hadn't been cleaned properly before arrival as the floor was dirty and hair everywhere, even in the bed!
The restaurant was closed for the evening and although we paid for breakfast in the booking, nothing was provided as the pub was still closed.
The pub, rooms and location were fine but just let down by minor details that could have been easily rectified.

Good place to stay, but the pub closes really early if there aren't enough guests.
