All in all i would highly recommend this little gem of a place to any passers by, it's literally 2 minutes off of the M74, if you do decide to stop in you certainly wont regret it! This is now in my notes and I'll be nipping in for sure next time I'm passing! NOTE; we did not stay the night in a room however if they are anything compared to the rest of the inn then they will be excellent!

Walking into the Back Bull pub in Gilsland, England, was a real treat. The pub is over 300 years…read moreold and oozes charm. However the service and the food were absolutely terrible. We would order something and 20 minutes later were told that they didn't have it. Several times. Finally 1 1/2 hours later we got our food. My order of fish and chips was the worst meal I have ever eaten. No fish to speak of, just extremely over cooked batter. My suggestion. Go for a beer then go somewhere else for dinner.

As we walked inside we found the right space was packed with locals at the end of the working day. The cask ales (a variety of yummy local brews) came quickly as did our meals. The fish and chips were big and hearty as was the chicken fillet my brother ordered. I noticed that a young lady near us seemed to have some piece of more gourmet fare. This was just the experience we were hoping to find: busy and unpretentious (although the wifi password was painted in handsome script above a doorway). If we didn't have to get back on the trail we'd probably come back another day.

This service is outstanding the proprietor is extremely friendly and the selection of beer and alcohol is excellent. Excellent bar menu everything from Fish and chips to burgers as well as mac & cheese. Very fair price and everything tasted outstanding. The place is extremely clean and very well kept. They have videos playing on multiple screens of TVs. Also a couple of electronica pub games. And if you need they also have coffee. Wish this place was closer to the states. You have to stop in and say hello and try and paint.

We only wanted a quick snack to keep us going. This resteraunt is huge! It's right on the waterfront and there's an outdoor eating area& a bar too. There's also accommodation here too. So ..the menu was pretty extensive ranging from all day breakfasts, traditional dishes , international meals &a blackboard with specials. They also cater well for children . We decided to have a snack, a bacon roll and sausage roll which were just busting with sausage&bacon! We also had a portion of chips, we were going to have a portion each ,but the waitress warned us they were large (kind of her) so decided just to go for the one.And a large pot of tea. It all came to £11 ,which we thought was good value. The service was fast and waitress polite. We came here low season and was quite quiet. You can imagine this place buzzing in the summer. Next time we're down this way we'll definitely pop in for dinner.
