A small village near Bicester, with typical British country style. It is a circle of houses built next to a pub and used as a hotel. It is a good experience.

The rooms are all good, but the waiters are terrible. They forced us to take out the drinks we brought with us or threw them away on the spot. We couldn't keep them and not drink them. This happened twice in a row, and they kept asking us to take away the food before we finished it. The whole restaurant was full of British people, and we were the only Chinese table. We felt discriminated against, and were obviously treated emotionally. There are several hotels of the same type around here. I strongly do not recommend this hotel.

The service of the beautiful lady at the front desk was very good! She was very nice to me! The environment and hygiene in the house were also very good! Thank you for making me feel warm in a foreign country!

Went to the Lion for lunch with a friend. When we arrived we were told in a curt unfriendly manner to go round to reception. When we asked for a table for two, we were told in a very curt way again that unless we had booked they couldn’t accommodate us because of a large booking. I’ve never received such an unfriendly greeting when visiting a pub. Such a shame as we were recommended to go there by a local business.

Wonderful family get together in this beautiful, friendly and atmospheric pub. What a place. The staff made us feel like VIPs. Our waitress Dot was superb, discreet, humorous but never far away if we needed anything. Before we even sat down, she had found a high chair for the toddler, she double checked the kitchen knew about our food allergy issues and served our drinks promptly. It was a truly memorable meal, thanks guys, we will be back.

Sunday Lunch - the food was excellent, very tasty and beautifully prepared. The service was polite and friendly. Our server, Dot, was so nice, nothing too much trouble and service with a smile. Will definitely be going back. Thank you The Lion.
