Booked the Black Swan for a family Sunday Lunch and get together. It was the best Sunday lunch I have eaten out by far. Everything cooked perfectly and full of flavour, wonderful crispy and fluffy roasties, gorgeous cauliflower cheese.....I could go on! Friendly and efficient staff. I highly recommend.

Food & drinks: Called in for drinks but being Tuesday there was no food service. However, it's a lovely place. Drinks were great. Best range of snacks to go with the drinks were the best I have ever seen. Great service. Very comfortable seating. Looked at the menus and they look very interesting. Offers breakfast also. Dog friendly always a good sign.

Stopped by here on a random trip to Soulby in the Lake District one evening on the way back to Lancashire with my family, including mother-in-law and 4 kids, and we were welcomed immediately.A table was made available for us, and we were pleasantly surprised at the quality of the restaurant, and the excellent and friendly service we received.Food & drinks: The food was excellent and well-priced for a fine-dining restaurant. I particularly recommend the chicken pâté for starter. Well-presented, and plenty of tasty pâté to spread.

The food, service, and ambiance were all top notch.Food & drinks: The food was amazing. I had the scallop and crayfish risotto and I didn?t want it to end. I had the venison entree and my husband had the duck, and both were excellent. I was full, but I had to try the coffee crème brûlée and I ate the whole thing! Highly recommend.

This is our third visit but not for some time and we were keen to return. Booked a table for lunch and the service was wonderful - very attentive and warm and was especially child friendly. The food was standout - smoked trout, crayfish & scallop rissotto, cod with mussels, sea bream with shellfish sauce and a dhal. Good portion sizes and expert cooking. Highly recommend a visit here.

We booked this hotel last minute to break a journey up and see a bit of the Lune Valley and were not disappointed. It?s in a lovely peaceful and calm location, oozing tradition and history with helpful and hospitable staff. There is an excellent dinner menu as well as a hearty breakfast to be had. The bar, lounge and dining areas exude Victorian charm and character including some examples of Hybrid Taxidemy.

Arriving on a late afternoon when it was absolutely throwing it down, we were soon put at ease and led to our spacious room with our two pooches (miniature dachshunds), where we were able to relax for an hour or two before going for dinner. The room was easy access to the outside and provided with poo bags, dog biscuits, dog bowl and a dog towel - how dog-friendly is that?! Also, there was a fridge with fresh milk for that much needed cuppa on arrival! The meal area set up for dog accompanied visitors is in the bar area, which was very comfortable and there were five tables set up with couples and a family and some seven, very well behaved dogs all laying down under the table with not one bark amongst them! Both of us chose fish for the main course. Mine was the cod with a mussel sauce, which was absolutely delicious and my wife chose the sea bream with a curry type sauce, which was excellent. On the following morning I had a good cooked breakfast and my wife chose smoked salmon with scrambled egg, the egg cooked to perfection and served with oodles of smoked salmon. This report sounds very biased towards dog owners but I can assure non dog-owners that the dining facilities are at the other side of the hotel and there is no need to be in proximity of out canine friends if you don?t wish to be! This was our fourth visit to the Black Swan, usually calling in for lunch on the way up to Scotland and it was the first time we have stayed overnight but it won?t be the last! A very enjoyable affordable stay on the last evening of our Scottish holiday. Thank you!
