We have just had the most fantastic dinner by the fire, the best dinner and setting I have ever experianced. Wonderful atmosphere, bar traditional oldie worldie. Food excellent. Very good service and will book again

Very atmospheric: a bar with an open fire, settles, wooden floorboards... First rate food and good beer and wines. Friendly staff and no-one batted an eyelid as I sat sewing a large piece of medieval clothhing! Small but comfortable room with rather complex shower. We may well be back.

We stayed at the Blue Lion for 2 nights over 4-6 April. We booked into one of the superior rooms in the Courtyard - room 14. The room was spacious and comfortable, and as previous reviewers mention, plenty of hot water, nice clean bathroom and underfloor heating. I had arranged a bottle of champagne on arrival which was waiting, well... More

Food overall was good, but we did not enjoy are steaks on the Saturday night, we raised this with Paul, he was very apologetic. Although on a cold night a... More

We were invited back to the blue lion this evening with our daughter and son after a disappointing Sunday lunch on Mothering Sunday.
