Ye Olde Red Lion

The accommodation provides excellent value for money with reasonable meal prices and special offers. It has clean, cozy rooms, convenient location, friendly staff, and delicious breakfast options.

A difficult one to review as there were many good points but let down slightly by one or two things that could have been better. We had a two night stay and had evening meals in the pub on both nights which were very good. There was a good selection on the menu at reasonable prices and on one night there was also a very popular offer in a carvery style but wasn't a carvery on this occasion. The cooked breakfast was very good but the alternatives were very limited - a choice of 4 cereals. All of the staff were very helpful and friendly. The accomodation itself was a room and a bathroom and whilst ok for a short stay were a bit basic and probably in need of a bit of a refresh. The bed was comfortable. The sink had a plug which didn't work and water escaped almost as quickly as you put it in which made washing a bit interesting. The bathroom floor while basically clean looked like it could do with a thorough scrub and was a bit sticky to walk on. Unfortunately there was no WiFi available in the rooms although it was fine in the pub. Although we weren't told when we arrived we subsequently found out the a recent thunderstorm had resulted in a nearby house being hit by lightning and that also took out the mast that covered the rooms and they were waiting for it to be repaired. So overall it was a pleasant enough stay but could have been a bit better with just a little TLC to the accomodation.

Stayed here for two nights - on first night we were greeted by bar staff checked in - asked for table to eat we were told we would have to be quick as finish serving at 8pm (website showing 9pm) we arrived at 7.30. I mentioned website showing 9pm she abruptly answered that doesn't start until Monday (Easter) We quickly took our bags to the room & returned to the pub where we were asked what we wanted as soon as we walked back in I asked for a menu as didn’t want the special pie night Food was nice but couldn’t stand how rushed & abrupt the female staff member was Breakfast staff totally different lovely & friendly. Room needs updating too.
