Would have liked a slightly more ambitious menu in the evening.

Very friendly staff, clean and fresh everywhere. Beautiful location by the river and good quality, freshly prepared breakfast.

Very stuffy top floor room, but was a heatwave at the time.

Great location by the river.

The beds were comfy but a bit short for my husband

What a lovely little find in a quaint village. Gorgeous setting, the sun was out and the outside area was full with people enjoying the lovely river view. We had a twin & a single room both were clean with a lovely welcome pack. We ate in the bar area, the food was delicious. I would love to return.

Last minute booking as let down by hotel I was meant to be staying at and was so pleased as this place was better than the one I was meant to be in.

It was very hot but that was just the surprise heatwave. Fans were provided though. The only downsides were the motorbike group who insisted on revving their engines at 7am just outside the window (would have preferred to have been told about this at booking or offered rooms away from the road given we were not with the motorbike rally) and service at breakfast was a bit, er, vague/slow! Breakfast food was utterly delicious though to match the lunch we had the day before!

Wonderful well-equipped rooms, fantastic food (we had a delicious lunch and amazing breakfast), great staff. Amazing and beautiful location.

Myself and my son stayed at The Lion on 26/06/2025 ahead of our day at Phil Price Rally School, we arrived around 19,30pm and was instantly greeted by a lovely lady who checked us in and sat us down to get us drinks and take food orders etc, we were extremely well looked after and the food was out of this world, the lady in question and the rest of the staff were extremely accommodating and pleasant. We had a great nights sleep in a lovely clean room and the next morning just when we thought it couldn't get any better we were served possibly the best breakfast I have ever received in a hotel. This place is truly a hidden gem and we will return without a doubt.

Staff seemed a bit under pressure in the morning - there was an event in which meant breakfast service was a touch slow. But they were very kind and helpful.

Lovely spot, very comfortable and excellent food.

Great breakfast and good location for work

Very good breakfast but slow service (took well over half an hour). Limited diner menu and our fish pie was very dry and not worth £19

Lovely location next to an old bridge with nicely kept lawn along the river . Plenty of outdoor seating (and they have an outdoor pizza oven which I believe operates at weekends) Nice bedroom with lovely touches (coffee/tea/water/biscuits/juice) Comfortable beds Well appointed generous bathroom Friendly staff

Wasn't a dislike but had a problem with our shower control which we addressed to staff who sorted the problem for our stay.

Lovely old building with adequate social spaces. Breakfast up to standard though we waited quite a while to be served it. Evening meal was good,prices on a par with most eateries.

Nothing.

Set in a stunning rural location next to a river with a spacious garden the Lion really is worth travelling to away from motorways and main roads. A small menu of well presented food - legendary triple cooked chips! - is a bonus. The comfortable room with a welcome fan had a stunning view across the rooftop and a spacious bathroom. Delightful.
