At the foot of the Howgill Fells, The Black Bull is shaped by its surroundings — wild, generous, and full of character. Our food draws from the landscapes that surround us, led by the seasons and grounded in honest technique. With rooms designed for comfort and calm, and a dining experience that speaks quietly of craft, we invite you to slow down, stay a while, and explore something familiar made new.
