Welcome to the Black Horse Inn

The Black Horse Inn, originally known as the Horse and Groom, was established in the small village of Swaffham Bulbeck in 1765.  It was renamed the Black Horse in the 1870′s, occupying the current premises from 1889.

The Priory in the village was founded in the second half of the 12th century by the Bolebec family (hence the name Bulbeck) and on the left hand side of the inn is the ancient Bolebec Cottage.

We took over the Black Horse in January 2009 and are thoroughly enjoying our time in this delightful village with its lovely village green, which we overlook.  We have made a number of changes over the last year and pride ourselves on our food, especially our novel Black Rock cooking concept which we can highly recommend.

In addition we offer a wide selection of real ales and fine wines which can be enjoyed sitting by a proper log fire during the winter months.  Our rooms, recently refurbished, are well appointed and equipped, yet affordable and we have the racing town of Newmarket and the beautiful city of Cambridge less than ten miles away.

So why not come and see us – we look forward to welcoming you to the Black Horse Inn.
