About The Black Bull Inn

Walkers, cyclists and dog owners passing through the Dales tend to get on well with The Black Bull Inn, a straightforward pub-hotel on Main Street in Sedbergh with 18 rooms and no fuss about muddy boots or muddy paws. It sits between the Yorkshire Dales National Park and the Lake District, so it works equally as a base for a few nights or a stop on a longer trip through the area.

Rooms are en-suite, with family rooms available for those travelling with children, and the usual practical extras: free WiFi, room service, drinks available in the room, and 24 hour reception for early starts or late returns from the hills. Downstairs there's a restaurant serving breakfast and meals with a kids' menu, plus a bar, a garden and outdoor seating for warmer evenings. Luggage storage is on hand for anyone breaking up a walking route.

The inn has no parking of its own, worth noting if you're arriving by car, but Sedbergh itself has pubs, restaurants and entertainment within easy reach, and the surrounding countryside is well set up for walking and cycling, with golf also nearby. It's an inn built around the outdoors rather than the extras.
