I booked this hotel for my husband's Birthday, so he could have a drink with his meal so he didn't have to drive afterwards. First of all on arrival, the hotel has ample parking with plenty of accessible parking spaces. The hotel was very inviting to look at. We were greeted by the manager (I didn't manage to get his name), he was very polite, welcoming and gave us all the info we needed for our night's stay. Our room was number 17...very clean airy and inviting. A big enough wardrobe for hanging clothes, there is also an iron, ironing board and a hairdryer inside the wardrobe. The bathroom is beautifully decorated with both a rainfall and handheld shower. The double bed was very comfortable and bedding spotless. There is a lovely touch of a couple of miniature chocolates on the bedside table. There is a hot drinks tray in the room with a kettle, a good selection of coffee, tea and hot chocolate and biscuits. We had our evening meal in the restaurant which is very tastefully decorated, the staff were excellent and very attentive. The food was excellent and very well presented. We were served by Laura and Arlie who were both fantastic. Breakfast was very good, with a good choice of cereals and fruit juices. Coffee/tea is served at the table and refilled as often as you like. The maple and bacon pancakes are absolutely amazing...thoroughly recommended. All in all, I would thoroughly recommend this hotel for a stay and a meal...10/10 Thankyou to management and all staff for a lovely overnight stay at your beautiful hotel, we will definitely be recommending to others and will be back again.

I have only used this place for the bar. We go occasionally primarily because it’s the only place nearby that all of my family have something they like to drink. Drinks are a bit dearer than other pubs/bars nearby. However they do a lovely hot chocolate with a piece of cookie which is my favourite, and a large selection of soft drinks too. Just wish there was a bit more area for sitting in the bar section as quite frequently it’s packed with people stood all over. Also with the car park remember to log your reg. They do have a tablet to log it on but (I believe) only the 1 so you often have to ask someone to move to access it.

We have been twice for a meal at The Red Lion and have never been disappointed. My parents have stayed in the hotel once and said the rooms were lovely. It’s not too far from where we live so it’s quite convenient when they visit us. The food always tastes so fresh and every member of staff we come across is helpful and pleasant. I haven’t ever had chance to get any staff’s names but they’ve all been lovely. This evening we enjoyed beautifully cooked Sea Bass and Scallops, which were really tasty and presented nicely. I like the specials sheet that is handed out with the menus too, it’s always got something seasonal and tempting. We will definitely keep coming back ☺️

Been here multiple times for breakfast with Santa, lunch and for Sunday roast (including pudding) and each time the food has been great. No long waits, great table service and really tasty food. Great presentation of food also Will definitely be coming back. It’s also a family friendly and cosy environment Lovely overnight stay also. Rooms were very clean and spacious and had lovely decor.

Very nice pub. Good food and most of service was good. Only issue we had was mushroom starter was cold. Had to wait ages for our empty cups to be taken away whilst eating mains. Then asked for a cup of tea and was given hot milk. Asked for some cold milk. Waited 1p mins for milk. No milk was brought so had to go and ask again. The building is beautiful inside. The toilets are spectacular.
