Warm welcome. Pleasent staff. Good sized room. Not arranged to its best advantage with tired bedding. Bathroom had no shower. The bar we sat in was very tatty. Very good breakfast in pleasent dining area. The pub is in a lovely village well worth a walk round.

We ate here for a family reunion, to start with the menu doesn't have a great choice especially for vegetarians or healthy options. The service was good but don't enquire regarding price or food options as you will recieve a very rude response. As for for desserts don't bother as they are very small portions and not that special they... More

We came to eat here whilst staying at the nearby Hellidon Lakes hotel. The staff were very friendly and the food was delicious! I had patè to start which seemed homemade and was so good! Rump steak for main, which was cooked to perfection! It was the best steak I have ever had! The food was fresh, good portions. Can't... More

We ate here twice whilst staying at the nearby Hellidon Lakes Hotel. The food was great with such a wide variety on the menu, the staff in the pub were really friendly and couldn't do enough for you. We enjoyed the food that much we couldn't wait to go back the next night and conversation prior to going for dinner... More

Have to say our experience of the Red Lion was fantastic. Excellent young man behind the bar could not do enough to help us, food was very very good and there were lots of locals eating and if it is good enough for them it's good enough for me. It was a Wednesday night and the pub was buzzing. Will... More

Staying at the nearby Staverton Park Hotel, and having read the reviews, we decided that this would be a good place for an evening meal. We made a booking for eight people and arrived about 8.00pm. First impressions were of a very attractive village pub and hopes ran high. However on requesting menues we were informed that they had no... More

Staying alone as a single lady business traveller, I felt comfortable at all times, and thoroughly enjoyed the lovely views and walks available. Will be returning with my husband to explore the area and will definately stay here again. My only niggle was there was no shower, and balancing... More
