A last minute event meant the we needed somewhere to stay so we decided to treat ourselves to Dinner Bed & Breakfast at the White Lion. It was a bit busy when we arrived but the staff were welcoming though we only go directions to our room as the lad needed to get back to the bar. The room was lovely, generally well appointed. We met my sister in law and her husband for dinner and the food was tea good, nicely presented and delicious too. A great seasonal menu, too full to have dessert. The bed was very comfortable though the pillows weren’t my favourite sort. Breakfast next morning was excellent, the really know how to poach an egg. I’d certainly recommend it for a little treat.

Kettle does have a short length lead which just about reaches the power socket. Ate in restaurant very nice meals provided. Would consider using this place again if back in the area.

Great place to stay

Stayed for one night on business and had a very pleasant stay. The staff was very friendly with excellent food and drink. The room a very good standard and very clean. The only down points was no where in room to hand clothes or shelf for towels in the bathroom. Also if travelling on business please be aware they do not start breakfast until 8.30am. Sorry if this sounds a bit negative, but feel business users need to know this and I would defiantly stay again.

The food was excellent although the breakfast should be included in the price. The notice on pub wall states bed and breakfast. I had to pay extra. The staff were helpful and courteous, bathroom excellent, bed etc. most comfortable. The actual room needs updating and decorating. Unfortunate part was having to exit pub and walk round back of building to access rooms after mounting 15 steps, and back again to the restaurant. I would give total experience 6-7 out of 10. If in the area would probably stay there again.

Very attractive gastro pub off the beaten track. Excellent food and range of drinks. I was fortunate the weather was glorious so an evening in the beer garden was appreciated. The room was a good size if only a little dated. The large sash window offered little in sound proofing but had the most glorious view across a field of sunflowers. Breakfast was ordered and freshly served in the main dining hall. You could tell the produce was fresh and locally sourced. Very appetising. In all a very enjoyable evening and overnight stay. The location is quiet and off the beaten track which was perfect for my needs.

Peace and quiet and lovely countryside

Lovely location, kind staff, clean and tidy room that had a really comfy bed. My favourite park was waking up to the sound of only wood pigeons and a little light coming through the window, dreamy. Thanks for waiting up for my later arrival whoever the lovely staff member was. I didn’t get breakfast but it smelt delicious and judging by the the chefs outfits even at 8am and all of them saying ‘yes chef’ after every sentence it was probably delicious. I’ll be back.

Remote and comfortable

Good reception, we were expected and shown to our room. Quiet location, very isolated but a very popular venue, well attended. Restaurant food is excellent and the English breakfast was superb. Our room was directly over the bar and it’s quite noisy which didn’t bother us particularly as it quietens down after closing. The walls are quite thin so you can hear guests in other rooms. The toilet seat was broken, which we reported and the shower took a long time to empty. We reported both when we left. The wc takes ages to refill. A few cobwebs on the ceiling but overall clean and comfortable. Nothing to stop us staying again.
