The Black Bull Hotel, Coniston

nice pub. most of my experiences are good here but one time when it was pouring down with rain i decided to go in for a pint and the barman had a look of being more worried about me dripping on the floor than welcoming a customer.

The Sun Hotel, Coniston

please note it was five or six years ago when i visited this pub.
i go to coniston every year but wont go to this pub again. the public bar is absolutely tiny. it was jam packed. i happened to notice a nice lounge area totally empty. i suspected it could be for hotel guests only so i asked. the barmaid said in a blunt manner it is for hotel guests only. so i had to squash up to this nice australian couple. they were nice but its ashame about the staff. so dont go there unless you want to know how a sardine in a tin feels.
