The lion hotel

The lion hotel

10/10 Excellent
"The only problem we had was Expedia told us we could book in at 15.00hrs when the hotel didn't open it's doors till 17.00hrs. Not the hotel's fault and it didn't spoil our stay. The room was lovely and the breakfast was excellent, recommend the scrambled eggs."

"Excellent newly refurbished accommodation, comfortably appointed room with convenient en-suite shower room. My only drawback was the stairs to bedrooms, but I am disabled, so because I forgot to mention this when booking, (with Expedia), I had to climb all 26 steps! The staff were excellent and helped with my luggage and I can’t speak highly enough about them"

10/10 Excellent
"Lovely friendly staff. Able to check in early which was great. The pub the accommodation is connected to is wonderful - excellent food and great surroundings. The room could have done with a more thorough clean - the were dust bunnies under the bed. The bathroom needs an update. But it was clean enough. Comfortable beds. Be aware that the ‘window’ in the bedroom is the top half of the stable door, so we could not leave it open for air at night, however there was a small window above that could be left open, and another small window in the bathroom. Just glad we didn’t stay in the height of the heatwave. There was a fan in the room and it had been left running which was thoughtful. The breakfast room was well stocked and it was great to be able to help ourselves in the morning to what we wanted. I would definitely book the accommodation again without hesitation."

"This accommodation was perfect, the location, all the staff were super friendly and helpful. The room was ideal, a good size, clean, comfy bed, plenty of tea, coffee etc etc The bathroom was a good size, I had two rooms booked and one room had a bath with shower over it and the other had a shower only, shower gel, shampoo, towels etc provided The price included a cooked breakfast which was freshly cooked to order We also had dinner which again was delicious and plentiful. Will definitely be trying to book here when I next need to visit the area "

"A quaint old fashioned inn. Amenities a bit dated but all functioning. Bath with jets was a plus. Loved the provision of bottled water and little biscuits. Breakfast was a lovely continental affair. Only downside was the winding staircases that made taking luggage up and down difficult."
