01207 232569 Set in stunning countryside the Black Horse boasts its own 10 acres of on site vegetable gardens and orchards, offering a rare “field to plate” dining experience.

Nestled within the Beamish Conservation Valley just minutes from the Famous Beamish Museum and Tanfield Railway, the Black Horse secretly resides itself.

Beautifully restored this 300 year old pub retains all of its charm and atmosphere, welcoming you with its open fires, flag stone flooring, and a clever mix of eclectic furniture. The bar is well stocked with delicious real ales and fine wines.  The kitchen makes use of the estate’s generous 33 acres, boasting paddocks, orchards, vegetable and herb gardens to stock the pantry with the freshest organic produce.

The setting couldn’t be more idyllic with the spectacular panoramic views, the historical fabric of the building, and with resident Red Kites flying overhead, all within an unbelievable 15 minutes drive from Durham city centre and Newcastle city centre.

The menu changes regularly according to what is available in the garden along with the timeless classics that are always available such as the Beef and Bombardier Pie with Red Row Vegetables and Beer Battered Cod Fillet and Hand Cut Chips.

Make the most of your weekend and enjoy a traditional hearty Sunday Lunch available from £8.95.
