Village Pub

Lovely village pub with great access to beautiful countryside. Very good food and lovely staff. Bedroom clean and tidy but a tad on the small side as was the bed which was a small double. Dog friendly, not just dog tolerant.

We were in Room 3 which was very small and could easily be improved by changing or removing a chair which did not fit under the dresser and, as placed in front of the wardrobe, prevented easy access to the latter (Apparently Room 4 is similarly challenging). A need to be organized and agile! It "worked" for us as a one night stay and it is a great location for accessing the Pennine Journey walking route. Evening meal was good and portions generous.

Peaceful, + comfortable B+B stay.

We had a very comfortable and quiet stay in the Black Bull. The staff were all friendly, efficient and helpful. The evening and breakfast food was tasty. We can recommend staying there in this lovely part of the UK.
