Reviews

Fiona 10/10
United Kingdom 🇬🇧

Suberb stay

Pros: Staff are attentive ,prompt and very friendly. Location is perfect! Food is excellent!

Robert 10/10
United Kingdom 🇬🇧

Wonderful stay with wonderful staff

Pros: The hotel was very clean, was a beautiful countryside style and very welcoming. Was really warm especially seeing as the outside was covered in snow.

Cons: Only thing I wasn't sure about, and it's only a small niggle, was the room was maybe too hot during the night and a touch uncomfortable. Wasn't willing to open the windows due to how cold it was outside!

Pros: Cosy rooms. Very nice food. Drinks and shortbreads in the room were lovely. Breakfast had good options

Stephanie 10/10
United Kingdom 🇬🇧

Perfect in every way.

Pros: On arrival I was greeted by ‘Jess’ - despite clearly being rushed off her feet, she was so warm & welcoming and couldn’t do enough to ensure our stay was perfect. On learning that we would need to be leaving before breakfast would be served, Jess put together a picnic of fresh pain au chocolates,(probably the best I’ve ever tasted!) fruit and water to ensure we wouldn’t go without. Our room was lovely, the bed was super comfortable, and after a very busy day serving coffee at the Pearce Downhill Cycles event and the next day to be much busier, I knew I’d have the best sleep. And I did! Honestly cannot fault The Lion, lovely warm atmosphere with staff to match. Highly recommend this fabulous hotel, the manager should be proud of their staff and the hospitality they provide. Thank you x

Cons: That we didn’t get to spend more time there! But we’ll be back :)

Lovely couple of days away
