The Black Dog Inn, Dalton-in-Furness in Barrow-in-Furness

Always enjoy our time there, with friends or for a quiet evening hidden in a corner. Lovely family friendly staff, and great food.

Really lovely place, great village pub. Above the pub they have 3, well furnished rooms. Really quiet rooms, with everything you need, friendly staff, always there to help, and a great bed for a lovely nights sleep. Hubby and I have tried a few hotels in this area and Airbnb's and this is by far the best by far. They covered my food allergies, so we had a hearty breakfast. I would recommend this place to anyone looking for a place to stay, in, nearby or even if your up for a short drive. It's also well worth a visit for the evening. We are repeat visitors, in their Airbnb this time. This time we had more space and birds in the little attic space, they got up early and went out for the day, returning later for sleep. So cute to hear them arguing for 2 mins, before leaving for the day. So nice to hear birds in the morning, it sounds just like them walking on the roof.

My partner and I stayed here the night before our safari zoo experience (round the corner). Such a lovely experience! We were looked after by Joshua and Tom, they made us feel extremely welcome and couldn't do enough for us. Joshua is just genuinely so lovely and caring, constantly doing check backs. Tom is the chef and clearly very passionate about what he does, he made sure food quality and display was on point and personally communicated with us about our preferences, he even prepared a lovely breakfast table for us before breakfast hours because we had to leave super early. The table was perfection and so beautifuly set up. Just overall a lovely personalised experience. My only slight negative feedback is that the beds are not quite firm enough for me, and the heating went off during the night meaning it went a bit cold, so I woke up and struggled to get back to sleep. However, I am a bit fussy and this is probably just personal preference. I love a firm bed and warm room all through the night with the cold weather.

We stayed in the cottage attached to the pub. It was lovely. We only went into the pub to order takeaway food, the service from Evie, and the food were both very good. The pub was full and welcoming, and they had to turn away food seekers, so I believe it is very popular.

Good selection tion of real ale, but unfortunately no food.

We had a great stay, breakfast delicious, comfy rooms even with nespresso coffee machine. Loved it 😊

We had an excellent one night stay, the rooms are spotlessly clean with beautiful decor. The staff are extremely efficient as well as being relaxed and helpful. Our evening meal was tasty and well presented. Breakfast could not be faulted. We can highly recommend a stay at The Black Dog Inn. Thanks to all for a lovely stay.

Fantastic rooms, fantastic food and great beer. The customer service is second to none. We will be going back again,loved our stay👍

Cozy place stay for one night TTL💟

Relaxing stay. Rooms are clean, spacious and well presented. Burgers were home made and very nice! Can't fault anything!

Great food, room was nice and clean with a very comfy bed providing a good sleep. Staff and locals very friendly and welcoming. Would highly recommend.

Amazing burgers and friendly service, rooms are finished to a very high standard, well recommended

Fabulous place, rooms were beautifully presented and clean and comfortable, had a gorgeous little terrace off the room with views over the countryside. The food was exceptional. Evening meal is only burgers but I have to say they are one of the best burgers I have ever eaten, they do it well and stick to what they do well. Breakfast was amazing too. Lovely family run business and traditional county pub with real coal fires. Would definatly come back and very good value for money too. Staff were so super friendly and helpful made us really welcome. Added a nice touch when told it was my birthday stay a happy birthday banner and balloons were at at my table for breakfast was a lovely touch.

Second time we've stayed here. First time was in the rooms above the Inn and the second was at the cottage. It's a really gorgeous place and the staff seriously go above and beyond for you. We cannot recommend this place enough. Food is always delicious. Drinks are well priced. I have zero issues with The Black Dog Inn and cannot wait to revisit. I've added photos from inside the cottage.

We had a great Friday night burger night at The Black Dog. Superb burgers, excellent chips and a good selection of beer.

My wife and I recently decided to take our son to The South Lakes Zoo, so thought it would be a good idea to stay over. We're so happy we booked this place as we had a great experience. The room was really spacious, clean and had a small terrace with brilliant views. The staff were all really friendly and the breakfast was of a very high standard. My dairy intolerance was catered for, and this added that extra touch of service, especially with the delicious granola Berry compote. Cannot fault this place and for the very reasonable price, cannot recommend enough and will definitely be returning.

Great place to take a break on this area of the Lakes. Lovely room, great bathroom (with good toiletries l fantastic breakfast All with a smile Would definitely recommend and will definitely stay again

Make you feel at home very friendly good ale and larger food looks good

매우 깨끗한 숙소와 아름다운 조식, 저녁을 즐길 수 있는 펍. 주위를 둘러싼 평화롭고 목가적인 전경들... 다시 가고 싶네요

Excellent service and customer care really enjoyable evening with good people

I would like to thank all the staff for making my stay. Accommodation is fantastically spotlessly clean and spacious with the added balcony 👌. Fantastic value. The pub downstairs what a friendly bunch. All were good crack. My meal on Tuesday was spot on the best burger I've had in years. With the added extra on the bar sausage Tuesday, what a result. My breakfast was out the top draw fantastic. Your selection or real ales 🍺 were great. I'm already checking online to grab some. Thanks for looking after me. I shall defo be returning 10 out of 10 folks to all staff. Mark

Stunning guest house, beautiful rooms with old beams and a really comfy bed. The food is worth a visit alone. Dinner and breakfast were superb 👌👌👌

My wife and I stayed for a night. I can honestly say the best and most welcoming place we have stayed in lovely pub stunning room. Then we come to the food I have never had a better burger it was perfect dirty fries. My wife said it was also the best burger she had had. She also had a side of Cajun coleslaw that she said was unbelievably good. Breakfast was also just fantastic. If you are in the area definitely go

Yes great night,for Keiran and Rebecca's lord of the rings engagement party..a special thanks to the lady behind the bar, happy and helpful

Smashing place. Locals are friendly. Attentive bar staff. Atmosphere great. Fave place!!!

Wow, this place blew me away. Every detail was perfect. The room was gorgeous, well furnished and immaculate. We ate tea, the burgers and chips were, again, perfect. You can tell this was all made fresh even down to the proper fried chips, with a wide selection of toppings and variety. In the morning we had breakfast provided downstairs, again a wide, fresh selection of good food. The special, scrambled egg, bacon and sausage on toast sounds plain but was far from it. Amazing This is a credit to the staff and owners who have done an amazing job and made us feel at home, while providing great service.

It’s a long time since I visited this pub but I will be back again soon. Very atmospheric and superb burgers.

The burgers here are amazing, we had the aloha and loaded chip! Fantastic. The staff are brilliantly friendly. It was mad busy when we got there so I'd recommend booking.

It's ok, beer was ok, staff were ok, it's ok

What an amazing cottage. We are family of five and it was perfect. Its so big and so well kept and fully self sufficient. Kitchen was so friendly to use. They provided with tea,sugar, coffee, three types of cornflakes, oil, salt and pepper. And it was a very sweet gesture to give a small pack 0f milk to start of. We are very happy to choose this place. Its just 40min far from all the attractions but we are not complaining at all. This place is surrounded by green pasture.

Nice friendly place. Rooms are clean and tidy. Excellent burgers. Had a very pleasant stay.

Really good food. Portions were large.

Fantastic place, stayed Saturday night after work. Couldn't ask to be looked after any better. Very kind of them to do me such a fantastic takeaway breakfast Sunday morning as I had to head off early for work. Thanks very much and hope to return in the near future 👍👌

Very welcoming place, lovely staff, room is super clean, great small touches like bottle of water in the room and Nespresso coffee machine, sturdy bed, super comfy mattress, very peaceful surroundings, breakfast was unreal, the best scrambled egg I had in a while ! I wish we had time to stay longer :( definitely worth a visit if you are visiting Lake District !

Awesome pub with great burgers and the location is really good! They staff are really very helpful and sweet!

Enjoyed a few nice ales while sat in the sunshine

At a wake ,nice atmosphere lovely friendly staff n brill fires

Had two wakes there unfortunately mum and then dad. Brilliant service, pie and peas buffet lovley. Can't thank enough.

Christmas burger were excellent and staff were friendly. Little bit too long of a wait for food but was 100% worth it!

Fantastic little B&B. Food in the pub was great, and the breakfast was outstanding. Highly recommended.

Excellent burgers, good choice of real ales, in the sunshine next to a stream, great location with great comfortable out door seating, the dog loved the place.

Fabulous wee place with excellent rooms and serving lovely home cooked breakfast. Top marks to the owners and staff.

Friendly service. Menu is limited but what we had was excellent. Beer was top class as well.

Lovely countyside area.. the rooms are beautiful band very spacious witha bar and an outside dining area

Very friendly and absolutely excellent real ales. Didn't eat there but will do next time

Absolutely brilliant stay. Room was spotless, staff were great and couldn't do enough for us. Breakfast was gorgeous. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a nice place in the countryside.

Great little pub, friendly staff. Shame they are only offering food on Fridays and Saturdays. Look out for Peter the peacock!

Absolutely beautiful, cannot recommend enough. Stayed here for 3 nights and the rooms were amazing. Really comfy beds, lovely shower. Staff were incredible. Had the food here as well Friday night and immediately rebooked to have the food for the Saturday too.

Excellent Pub and superb food. The table service girls were exemplary. Dog friendly, good atmosphere, great beer and food, what else do you need?

Exceptional customer service great food and a five star overall experience from the venue in particular Freya she went above and beyond during my stay

Stayed overnight and it was awesome. Good aesthetic, good selection of drinks, the pool room and vintage jukebox are nice features. The breakfast in the morning was fantastic, great quality food, the man (night time serving on the bar) and the lady (served us breakfast) were both lovely and couldn't help you enough, looking forward to going back for a couple nights when possible.

Top pub. Well looked after by friendly staff and food excellent. Covid safe.. Well worth visiting this top establishment

The food was really good and the staff and service was brilliant.

Great service, lovely food. Genuinely nice people with real passion for customer service.

I had a really great stay at The Black Dog Inn. Excellent rooms, very comfortable, clean and well priced. Very covid safe. Excellent range of beers and drinks. The three course breakfast of cereal, pastries AND a full English included in the price was brilliant. Very close to the hills, and easy to get to central Lakes. Highly recommend.

It's a nice safe place to visit and have a drink outside.

Glad we had such a lovely place to stay with the weather being so bad this weekend. Room was honestly amazing, comfiest bed I've ever experienced, staff brilliant, food amazing and great selection of drinks. I will definitely be visiting again. Thank you for making a potentially bad weekend wonderful

Lovely proper rural pub. Locals are great and very friendly

Fantastic B&B on a hill above Dalton with superb rooms and very good breakfasts. Staff are wonderful, friendly and helpful. Cannot praise it enough. No evening meals but plenty of eating places in Ulverston a few miles away.

Amazing night stay at this little gem! Room was beautiful and spoltlessly clean. Staff very friendly. We ate in the restaurant where they serve the best burgers. Breakfast in the morning was faultless. Highly recommend!

Great friendly pub with a good live music setup.

Lovely little pub with really nice rooms really good breakfast.Great selection of local beers.

Such a gem! Will be recommending it to everyone. The people here are lovely, the room is perfect and we just had the best stay. The inn is lovely and cosy, so you immediately feel at home. Great value for money and the perfect position so that you’re in the middle of nowhere but still close to other amenities in the area. I’m also convinced that the mirror they have in the room makes you look skinnier, so that in itself is a reason to visit.

Cant fault the accommodation, pub, breakfasts and everyone involved. Great place and more importantly great people. Had a fantastic stay, thank you

Dog walk with beer after a hard day working. Hopefully the end of Social isolation. CHEERS

Very helpful staff. Excellent beer. Nice wee pub. Will definitely visit again.

Absolutely amazing, rooms are outstanding!!! The breakfast is to die for! Staff are very friendly and welcoming 10/10

Great cozy little pub with live music a definite place to try out for a drink 🍷 🥂 🍻

Great selection of cask ales and gin. Fantastic landlord and great music including the annual Dogfest

Great pub. Bar staff excellent. Beer great with a good selection. Toledo Mudhens were playing. Which added to a excellent night out.

Fantastic old style pub. Cheap good beer and a great landlord and landlady. Don't expect swanky and you won't be disappointed

Although the website says they do food we went in there today and were told they don't do food.

Great pub with a friendly atmosphere.

Great local pub for burgers and beers

Brilliant cosy pub, nice and friendly locals and staff.

One of the best old school pubs for real ales

Great real ale ,there was a group playing when we called great atmosphere and friendly locals will be back

Best burgers around on friday night's well worth the visit

Fantastic country pub which has made top quality ales, craft ales and premium lager a priority. A must for those looking for a genuine real ale experience in South Cumbria. The new premium gin bar is a welcome addition. Highly recommended.

Best real in the local(Dalton) area.
