The lion inn is a charming old pub with a pretty garden and we had an okay stay. The bed was comfortable, the bathroom was clean , food was good, and our room was quiet. However, the property is tired, the shower was tricky, carpet had stains and the wifi didn’t work. Staff were underwhelming and we felt it was overpriced .

My husband and I spent Christmas at the Lions Inn. The manager and staff, (cheers to our delightful breakfast server) were so professional, kind, and joyful. Lion Inn was a magical place to celebrate the holiday. Excellent room, food, and hospitality and staff.
