Charged for drinks we did not have (my fault for not checking the itemised bill - easily rectified), large cobwebs in the bathroom and shower tray desperately needs resealing to avoid further water damage. Room 7

Recently under new management so has some minor teething challenges. The current interim manager was excellent but only temporary. If the full time one is half as good the hotel should be a success as it is quiet and charming. Note however the rooms are not for those with mobility issues (and frankly room 1 has so many tiny stairs it isn't for anyone!) We had room 5 which was fine (and is probably the one in the photo) We only had snacky things to eat but restaurant looked popular. Slightly off the M1 if you are travelling like we were but actually a pleasant break from the motorway mayhem. Decent continental breakfast was included and rate was excellent in comparison with others either side of motorway.

We had the most incredible weekend at The Red Lion. The staff is very friendly and attentive, their restaurant is 10/10, and the rooms are stunning. The village is very quiet and peaceful, with lovely little streets you can walk down on, but you truly won't need to go anywhere as they have everything you need at the hotel. If you can squeeze in a Sunday Roast, take full advantage of it.

This is a great and affordable place to visit. We arrived early and was greeted by very friendly staff. Inside the buliding is beautiful with interesting memorabila from the past. Peaceful, we had a lovely stroll around the village and visited the church.
The food is fantastic and the Beer is yummy.
A Must See and stay.
A special thanks to Tristan what a wonderful fella.
