The Black Dog in Northumberland

Lovely overnight stay. Beautiful room with complimentary toiletries. We had our evening meal and breakfast, both of an incredibly high standard. The best burgers to be had! Friendly, attentive staff. Nothing is too much trouble. Not our first stay here and it won’t be our last. Thank you!

Great burgers and lovely friendly service from bar staff and waitress. Well kept beer and homely atmosphere can highly recommend.

First class. Rooms appointed to a really high standard. Friendly welcome, beer great and an excellent burger. Excellent nights sleep. Highly recommend.

Fantastic place to stay, beautiful room with lovely decor & view of the fields we had the best night sleep. The bed was so comfy and it was very quiet. Breakfast was was delicious 😋 we can't fault the black dog and we will be back, we want to try the bistro food.

Booked in for Burger night as spotted on their Facebook page that they get booked out. I have to say after experiencing the food it’s easy to see why. The food was tremendous, the waitress (Darcy) was friendly and the bar-lady was lovely. We had a Chicken Burger (The Aloha with loaded fries upgrade), the Blue Cheese and Bacon Burger with fries and some chicken strips to share. All absolutely beautiful. We can’t wait to come back

Had an amazing meal, lovely pub with fantastic atmosphere and great staff. We had burgers from their Christmas Menu, Chickmas Burger and Bacon, Brie and Cranberry Burger with a few pints of Langdale Cumbrian Ale and Mince Pie Affogato, will definitely be going again…so full now I can’t move 😊

Stayed for one night with a family group and was very impressed. The rooms are beautiful, very clean and cosy - they have clearly been renovated fairly recently and to a very high standard. Absolutely could not fault the accommodation. The landlord was very pleasant and welcoming and his daughter Lauren did the most amazing breakfast.

On arrival the owner made us feel very welcome. The bedroom was modern, very clean, spacious, warm with a nice coffee machine/tea. Bathroom was modern very clean, lovely extra large bath towels, good shower shampoo/shower gel. We had a couple of drinks in the bar and chatted to the locals. Breakfast was very good, lots of choice fruit, cereal, pastries, full English, coffee, tea and toast. Definitely recommend we really enjoyed our stay and would stay there again if we were in the area.

A gem of a place!! The staff were nothing short of being fantastic and couldn't do enough to ensure we had everything we needed and to ensure our stay was perfect. Would recommend this place as a great base to go off exploring the local walks and attractions. Will be back later in the year to explore more of the area and enjoy the 1st class service.

Obviously not been for while so wondered what had changed under Tier2.Thankfully the couple running it still there,friendly,helpful,knowledgeable.Very well organised we had booked table in new outdoor 'shed' with woodburner gas heater and electric lamp heater!Fabulous real ale and burger delivered promptly by charming young female staff member.Also large marquee outside pub fairly busy.Traditional pub, great staff felt very safe.Cannot think of one negative!

We were staying at High Haume glamping and were recommended a visit to the black dog. I can usually eat a hearty meal , the fantastic burger and loaded chips beat me. I had to leave a tiny bit . I will be back

The room, staff, food and drink were all perfect. Didnt want to leave and would recommend to anyone. I've genuinely never slept on a comfier bed. We had an amazing time. Thank you Black Dog Inn

This is a gem of a place, a small pub on a road out of Dalton with 3 rooms. Breakfasts are immaculate and beautifully cooked with flair. Staff are really great, very helpful and thoughtful and easy to get on with. There's a peacock wandering around too. No evening meals apart from Friday which is a burger night - again excellent even for veggies! A list of restaurants in nearby Ulverston is provided. It feels like everything has been thought about carefully. We highly recommend it. Jo

Stayed for 2 nights. Rooms refurbished to a very high standard and a very nice feel to the rooms. Food was not being served on the Thursday night but we were given a list of recommended alternatives to choose from. We ate at the pub on Friday night which was burger night. Really good selection of tasty burgers and real ales to choose from. Breakfast was plentiful and very tasty and the young lady serving very helpful and had suggestions for places to visit which were not quite as well known. Very friendly staff and would not hesitate to recommend this place. Situated perfectly for the South Lakes zoo but still only 20 minutes scenic drive into the central lakes

Stayed at High Haume Glamping and perfect having this little gem in walking distance just down the road. Mark serves up some classic local ales, 4-5 on tap I recall which is not very common in the majority of pubs nowadays so it guaranteed it to be a regular visit for us during our stay, my lad especially loved the free lollipops which have probably run out now! Didn't get to try the menu unfortunately (served Fri & Sat) as we left early Friday but have it on good recommendation from our Glamping hosts that it is well worth a visit for the burgers especially! Many thanks again for the warm welcome Mark and keep up the great work.

Very impressed with the set up following lockdown. Very clean. Measures followed. Seating inside and out. Lovely friendly staff. Highly recommend!

Just back from a short stay in The Black Dog Inn, Dalton in Furness. Incredibly warm welcome, immaculate room with the best views, amazing breakfast, my partner said it's the best b&b brekkie he's ever had !! We travelled by car into Ulverston, 5 minutes away. Perfect base for us and we will certainly return.

Stayed over for a birthday party, beer, food, atmosphere all 10/10, rooms comfortable, spacious and very modern, great breakfast, landlord/lady and all staff very friendly and nothing is too much trouble, would definitely recommend.

The Black Dog has evolved under the ownership of Mark. It used to be a real ale men's pub but now attracts a wide age range of both sexes.Having undergone restructuring inside there is a nicer ambience. The beer is superb with a good range of spirits too.Burger Night on a Friday is well worth a visit. Hand made, fresh, huge burgers with chips to die for and a variety of toppings.The pub has regular music nights, plenty of weekend beer festivals and the annual Dogfest - music/beer festival.Personally I would like to have more comfortable seating inside (All seating is wooden chairs). It would also be great if a Sunday roast was on offer or a curry night. Mark and his team are passionate about the Black Dog and the quality of the food/drink and the warm welcome are proof of this. It's my favourite pub and hard to beat.

please print menu on your web sight i can't see a menu printed any where on the information on your public house

Had a lovely meal on sunday. I had the lamb roast and hubby had the beef both excellent meals and lots of it ..........I ordered the sherry trifle for afters it was nice but to much sherry I struggled to finish it ...........Bit of a wait considering not a lot in by the time we got there late afternoon but over all very enjoyable visit

Llevé a mis padres al Black Dog para una comida el sábado por la noche. Un fantástico pub tradicional y excepcionalmente acogedor personal. La comida era buena y a un precio razonable. una buena selección de cervezas. El único problema que tuvimos fue la longitud de tiempo que teníamos que esperar para nuestra comida. Pedimos a las 7.30 pm y la comida llegamos justo después de las 9 pm. Había una pareja que estaban comiendo cuando llegamos y luego un grupo de 9 llegamos justo antes que nosotros no ocupado por la comida, que por lo tanto Tuvimos problemas para entender cómo podría tomar mucho tiempo para 4 comidas preparadas. La camarera & /propietario de gerente no regularmente venir y díganos qué no sería largo y también nos dieron una vuelta gratis de bebidas, pero la espera aún afectó nuestra experiencia global.

Just had excellent meal, freshly cooked, good homemade food, hubby LOVES the real ale, fantastic little pub, you must go,,,,,

Qué pequeño pub pintoresco el encargado es muy acogedor, pasamos una agradable velada aquí con otra pareja para comida y acabamos quedándonos toda la noche. Gran selección de cervezas locales para probar, chimenea y una decoración única son sólo algunas de las delicias. no se puede superar buena comida de pub a un precio razonable en un lugar encantador. bandas locales también jugar aparentemente volveremos a visitar pronto

excellent service staff were very pleasant and meal was perfect wine was very pleasant forthe choice offered

Well above your average pub food in terms of quality and decent value- especially the Sunday Lunch menu. A good choice of real ale kept well.A quiet traditional atmosphere with 2 real fires- wish more pubs stuck to the basics of good beer and good food!
