16/04/2019 | Superb Hotel758greggb, We stayed in room 2 which is handy to get to from the bar and restaurant and is on the ground floor. Fantastic room, comfortable, very tastefully decorated with a classy range of toiletries in the well designed bathroom. When we saw the restaurant and menu we changed our plans and ate at the hotel. The food and service were exceptional as was the breakfast in the morning. Superb, we're already planning our next visit. |
15/04/2019 | Serenity with treats in Wark!FindingEden, My partner and I have just returned from a weekend break at The Black Bull Hotel in Wark, Northumberland. It has been an absolute tonic. Everyone there was so welcoming and friendly, nothing was too much trouble. The room was spotless, points of note were the complimentary bamboo toothbrushes, and homemade gingerbread biscuits on the hospitality tray. The bedlinen was lovely, I am particular about egyptian cotton, and wasn't disappointed. Dinner started very well with stunningly enormous prawns, in the lightest tempura with a fine garden salad and homemade curry mayonnaise. It was outstanding. I followed with steak and ale pie. The steak was melting, and the pie was tightly packed with it. The pastry was thin, crisp and golden, and to me had a taste of browned butter about it. The vegetables were a medley of garden peas, mange tout, carrot and kale, very lightly tossed in butter and fresh parsley. The mashed potato was smooth, light and creamy. My partner chose fish pie, which unusually was topped lightly with pastry. Apparently that is a french style, rather than potato topping. He said the filling was very tasty, and packed with fish, including prawns and halibut as well as the more usual salmon and smoked fish. Neither of us could manage pudding or cheese. The chef is french. We thought his food was stunning. The atmosphere at the Black Bull Hotel is pleasant and relaxing. There is a conservatory at the back overlooking a garden. I found it peaceful. I would highly recommend this place. There is welcome with peace, enjoyment and a touch of luxury. |
15/04/2019 | Excellent Sunday roast.Antony C, This is a cracking place in the heart of a beautiful village near the tyne river in Northumberland. We often pop in for a drink after out walking our dog. This day we decided to book in for a roast. Great food. Great service and another pub just next door that is dog friendly. Situated on the road from Simonburn to Bellingham. |
14/04/2019 | Quiet Cosy InnTimothy O, The rooms are well set out and comfortable, with in room coffee, tea etc. The bed could have done with a mattress topper. The staff are friendly and serviced the room well. The restaurant is quite good, especially the breakfast. The bar was generally quiet, for a more boisterous evening, go to the Grey Bull next door. Overall good value for money and I would recommend |
12/04/2019 | Food not worth the waitJackthebite, Newcastle upon Tyne, United Kingdom From the outside this seemed like a very welcoming place to stop for food after being seated in the dining room we immediately felt out and looked down upon both from the other diners and staff this was reflected in the food another tables food came out while we were waiting it looked amazing after about 30-45 minutes our food arrived right away we could see it was burnt but waited that long and were hungry so just ate what we could which wasn’t much my partners little girl wanted pasta they took our order then came 10 minutes later to say there was none so she ordered pizza when it arrived it was cheddar cheese on toast basically was a very disappointing meal burnt omelette (my partner was not impressed) burnt chips over cooked vegetables would not recommend |
