Dining

The Black Bull Inn offers an exceptional dining experience with a tasting menu curated by Head Chef Nina Matsunaga, showcasing seasonal British produce. Influences from Japanese and German cuisine shape a menu that includes dishes like Isle of Mull Scallop and Lakeland Venison. An extensive wine list emphasizes independent wine makers with a focus on sustainable practices, ensuring a thoughtful selection for every palate.

Location

Located in the historic market town of Sedbergh, the hotel is on the edge of the Yorkshire Dales National Park. This strategic position provides easy access to outdoor activities, including hiking and exploring the Howgill Fells. Proximity to the M6 makes the hotel a convenient base for discovering the picturesque scenery of the Lakes and Dales.

Sustainable Practices

The Black Bull Inn prioritizes local sourcing, obtaining ingredients from nearby farms and producers to guarantee the highest quality. Meat comes directly from local farms, including grass-fed beef and wild venison, ensuring freshness and responsible farming. This commitment to sustainability extends to the garden, which produces herbs and fruits used in the kitchen.

Outdoor Space

Guests have access to a secluded garden area where they can enjoy refreshments during warm months. The garden offers extensive seating options, including sun traps and covered areas amidst local flora. This setting also features fruit trees and an herb terrace, contributing to the culinary offerings of the restaurant.

Animal Welfare

The Black Bull Inn is home to two Tamworth pigs and free-range chickens, reflecting a commitment to animal welfare and environmental sustainability. The garden allows for the wilding of certain areas, promoting local biodiversity and supporting bee populations. Guests can occasionally dine on menu items featuring seasonal produce from these resident animals.
