We were in twin room room 6 at the front of the property, it overlooked the main road but we found it very quiet. Very friendly staff. Comfy bed. Lovely steak pie, mashed potatoes and veg in the evening followed by trifle (these are never on menus!) Great breakfast the next morning, nice filter coffee and yoghurts. Will come again.

An older character Inn with a warm welcome and very comfortable room, in the centre of Wooler with free parking at the rear. En-suite bathroom was compact but adequate - good size room and great bed. Breakfast choice made the night before was freshly served and good quality. Cereals, toast, juice and drinks plentiful to help yourself. The chef was not working on the evening we stayed which was a disappointment as we had already decided on what to order before our arrival. However the Italian Restaurant behind the Black Bull was recommended and did not disappoint.

The room was fantastic with a bay window high up overlooking the street. It was well furnished with a very comfortable bed and we had a great nights sleep. The only downside was the bathroom which was 'compact' (not really a problem) but the shower did not work well in that that it never got beyond just above cold and had a miserable trickle of water. We spoke to staff before leaving and they were appalled that this had happened and were going to get it looked at. Overall, very happy to stay there again.

Parking at the side of the pub in the bis station is a big plus but for us thats really where it ends, the bedroom was spacious being above am old pub but the mattress has seen better days and dipped badly in the middle, but the main problem was that there was what i can only describe as drum and bass music bouncing from a residence next door that wemt on till 2am! We were in room 12. I know that is not directly the pubs problem but if its spoiling what should be a peaceful nights sleep in a country pub then dont use that room!! We had to be up at 6am to go scuba diving in seahouses so not fun on 4 hours sleep, im sure it mist be heard in other rooms too so take heed, totally spoilt our peaceful night away.

Great stay

The Black Bull was a near perfect stay for us. The ladies who run the place were very helpful and gave us our room key (room 5) and the room next door (room 4) as our shower door was broken so we could use that room's shower. Room 4 had just been refurbished by the look of it but wasn't quite ready as had no curtains but I would say it would be a lovely room to stay in. The only reason it didn't give a 5 star is the toilet in our room. When I flushed it before bed it took ages to refill and made a lot of noise...I eventually used the kettle to fill the cistern so that we could sleep. I did tell them in the morning so hopefully that will be resolved. We ordered what we wanted on our full english when we arrived and agreed our time for breakfast. It was well cooked and you could help yourself to all other items. We have an electric car and there was a charger in the car park next door so we could get a full charge overnight. I would definitely recommend the Black Bull. :)

Good one night stay.

Nice pub with standard rooms. In nice location, central and easy to find. Easy and friendly check in, nice cooked breakfast too. Beds comfy. Shower was a little small. Whilst they didn't have anywhere to store bicycles indoors overnight, we were able to lock them under shelter in the tucked away Car Park at the back. Overall ideal for our one night stay.
