Black Bull Retreat, Barmston with Private Hot Tubs

The hot tub was nice and the staff were very friendly and helpful, but the lodge we stayed in wasn’t the best: it had a hole in the floor, the lino was ripped in several places, the fridge shelf was held in by rusty screws and kept falling out, there were blinds missing from the windows, wallpaper ripped off the bedroom walls, and it was very run‑dow, needing a lot of attention.

“Lovely clean spacious lodge but faulty boiler and not alot in the area let it down.”

Clean, spacious and the hot tub were positives, but the boiler had an L2 fault so there was no hot water and we couldn’t use the shower; there wasn’t much within walking distance and the pub was closed.

“The second day, it was very nice, but unfortunately the 1st night hot tub issue spoilt the stay.”

The location is very nice, yet the fridge was broken and the hot tub was only heated to 32 °C upon arrival, so we couldn’t use it for the first night of our two‑night stay.

“Loved this place”

Loved everything about this place! The guy who checked us in was lovely and helpful; we came to race our hot rod. Thank you so much for everything.

“Happy stay.”

Really enjoyed the peaceful setting; the staff came to our rescue the first day because the TV didn’t work, we liked it because it was within easy reach of the towns we wanted to visit, and the beach at Barmston was excellent for walking. Also liked the hot tub, though another step would make it easier to get into, and it was cleaned every day. The coffee and tea tray with sugar and milk was welcome when we arrived. No WiFi, the cooker needs better instructions to work, and it would have been lovely if the pub were open to mix with people and have a meal, but we understood that this was planned for this site next year, along with other refurbishments.
