This community owned and run Inn is fantastic. The staff and locals are friendly and could not be more welcoming. The bedrooms are large and well appointed and quiet. The chefs do a great job producing excellent home cooked meals. The only thing to remember is that they don’t serve evening meals on Monday or Tuesday but as there are other places locally this was not an issue.

Beautifully updated property near Queen Elizabeth Forest Park. Check in was quick and easy. Our room was large with a king size bed, a lovely view from the window, large bathroom room with a large enclosed shower. Nice soap and shampoo. We had a delicious dinner in the restaurant.

Great food in cozy village

The Black Bull was built as an inn in 1740. Gartmore is a quaint village with nearby walking paths. There are no shops or other things, but it is beautiful for it's countryside views and a nearby path. Also, the food is outstanding at the Black Bull. The menu is small but the chef makes it all count with each plate masterfully executed. I had a traditional chicken recipe stuffed with haggis and it was so tender and flavorful. I had to personally go thank the chef; it was just that tasty.

Lovely community run pub with loads of local history and great location in heart of the village. Friendly and helpful staff offered great service. Pub grub delivered with a smile and good value and very tasty. Breakfast cooked to order by the Chef and excellent start to the day. My second visit and certainly not my last. Thank you BB Gartmore

A wholesome stay

We had a one night stay at the Black Bull and wished we could’ve stayed longer. It’s such a wholesome place to stay, the staff are friendly, the rooms comfortable and set in a beautiful village. Thanks We’ll be back
