The Black Bull Inn and Hotel was built around 400 years ago as a coaching Inn providing accommodation for travellers, coachmen and horses. The Inn is situated in the picturesque village of Coniston, beside the beck and in the shadow of the 'Old Man' mountain. We have 11 comfortable bedrooms each with bath or shower en-suite, colour TV, tea/coffee making facilities, hair-dryer, full central heating and double glazing.
The character of the rooms and inn has however still been retained. The most recent addition to our hostelry is a microbrewery Coniston Brewery, in which we brew our own beer, Bluebird Bitter and Old Man Ale. These are made using only the finest natural ingredients available and our local mountain water. The beer is cask conditioned before being sold to our discerning customers in the bar.
A traditional Bar, with exposed stone walls, oak beams, cosy log burning stove and comfortable chairs, fixed seating and tables. One half having local slate flooring and is particularly suitable for parties, having several large tables.
