Black Bull with Rooms Upper

I stayed here for one night only. Its situated in Cumbernauld Village which was a fair distance from Cumbernauld Railway Station. I travelled from Falkirk by train. I later found out that you can catch a bus from Falkirk to Glasgow which stops about a 5 minute walk away from The Black Bull. The room I was allocated superb. It was a good size, clean and very modern. I paid £63 for room only and it represented good value for money. Right next door is The Black Bull Pub itself. I spent the evening in there and its a great place too. Very modern with Sky Sports on TV and a good selection of beers too. You can also eat here. I got talking to many locals and it made for a every enjoyable night. Overall, I'd definitely recommend this hotel. It was a great find. There was a couple of alternative eating places nearby in the village.

No sound proofing.. Noise all night from other guests plus doors banging early in morning. Baby crying all night which kept us awake and you could hear all conversations in surrounding rooms. TV not working and room very cramped. Clean but will not use again

The family at AtlasAdventured recommends this hotel! We stayed here late October 2023. We were looking for something close to the Halloween activities we were taking our daughter to, but somewhere that wasn’t in the middle of a big city, close to restaurants, and all for a decent price. This place checked all of those boxes. Honestly, I was a little skeptical at first. It’s a 3 star hotel, the pictures looked like it was a tiny, worn down room, but boy were we pleasantly surprised! The room is small, but not as small as I was imagining. Very clean, good size bathroom, and very easy check in and out. We stayed in a triple room which had a full size bed and a twin. The twin bed was tucked in a little corner of the room which our daughter loved. The restaurant attached (The Coorie In) was amazing. We would definitely stay here again next time we’re in town!

It was the best of times, it was the worst of times... We booked rooms to bookend our road trip around Scotland. As a family of 5 it meant splitting into a 2 and a 3, and on our first night, a Sunday, we were given 3 doubles instead of 2 family rooms. We were told this was due to some redecorating of the family accommodation. I was a little sceptical at first as it would mean our 14yr old having a room to himself, but the 3 rooms we were given were the only rooms in one wing of the building, meaning we could come and go as we needed between the rooms. Rooms 6,7&8 were all doubles, room 7 being noticeably smaller and harder to navigate. There wasn't anywhere to put a suitcase, and I'm glad we only had 1 night there. The decor was fresh and modern, and I was happy with everything else -apart from some lumpy pillows which could do with replacing. Sufficient tea, coffee, milk and some tasty biscuits were welcome. I was optimistic about our stay on the homeward journey. We arrived on a Friday night at about 8.30pm. The restaurant/bar seemed busy. We checked in fine, the rooms were similar decor (grey and white) as our previous rooms, but we had the two family rooms ( 4&5 ) this time. Each was bigger than the doubles downstairs, having an actual cupboard/wardrobe to hang clothes up rather than just hangers on the wall. The doors had a strange wooden footplate (which was broken, for room 4,) and squeeky. It was warm, and I thought a window had been left open as it was quite clear to hear people outside out for a smoke. It wasn't until I went to close the window that I realised it WAS shut, but there was a big gap at the top of each window allowing sound and a draft through. Then came the music. A talented lady singing live in the Corrie...which I'm sure was a bonus to the patrons of the bar, but not a family with children trying to get to sleep. The live music went on until 12am. Phew, I could finally get to sleep ...alas, the DJ started playing club music until 1am, at which point I was finally able to go to sleep...until 2.20am when I was woken by the staff shouting to each other as they cleared away. The pillows were lumpy here too, and a broken bathroom floor seems to have caught a few people out. I managed to kick it with my foot while wearing shoes, my son wasn't so fortunate and did it barefoot. By the look of it, it's a common problem. If we'd stayed out first night on a Friday in these rooms I would have cancelled the follow-up visit, as sleep is a Fundamental for me, and I got a terrible night. Strangely the windows in room 5 were actually broken at the top, making the room noisy and draughty, and I could get my finger into one of the gaps! I would stay again in the doubles 6&8, but not on a weekend.

We stayed for 1 night was in a upstairs room I think the room was lovely and homely comfy bed which for me Is a must nice size bathroom. I had a hick up though in the morning I left my ring Iin the bathroom when we checked out. For 15 minutes I was trying to contact the owners with the numbers on the website to know avail, the pub was shut so I nearly left without it to later contact them to send it back but luckily enough the house keeper came out of the downstairs rooms and let me go back in for it. So all wad good we would go back again.

Stayed 2 nights and would stay again….room was small but perfectly adequate for our needs. Very clean and with a comfy bed. Tea and coffee available, real coat hangers (I hate the ones which are fixed in to the rail) Touch lamp on the bedside table. Walk in shower was great, lots of room and good power. A good find for a good price!
