Just returned from 3 day break at the Red Lion Inn, must say that we found it very nice and friendly both the staff and the locals. Ate there every night and didn't have a bad meal at all. The room had a lovely view of River Dart and nice clean bedding and soft white fluffy towels. Don't really know... More

We were booked in for 2 nights in a 'Superior Room' (at £97.50/night) but checked out early. Our superior room had no bathroom door (even worse, had a huge archway into the bathroom!), the view was spoilt by a cigarette-laden balcony with a single, mouldy, plastic chair and rusty railings and to top it all the noisiest sanitary system ever!!!...

We needed somewhere to stay over 1 night for a wedding in Dartmouth and needed a parking space as well. Options were very limited for places which would allow less than two nights stay, and the few in Dartmouth didn’t have parking spaces. I read the reviews here and though the Red Lion would be as good a place as... More

If you like somewhere that smells of wet dogs, allows dogs in the dining room, has beds with four inch mattresses that offer no support allowing you to feel the wooden slats in the devan base and doesn't offer you a cheery welcome on your arrival then this is the place for you. We have never stayed anywhere that is... More

A very relaxing four nights at this friendly family hotel. Excellent en suite room with river views. Good food and atmospheric bar used by locals. It does not pretend to be the Ritz but does offer delightful informal relaxing surroundings which are child and dog friendly. All staff were really helpful and made our stay great. We will most definitely... More

What can one say really about this charming, well run and friendly B&B/Pub. The location is great, situated quite high up in Dittisham with great views down over the Dart. The Red Lion also runs the village Post Office and shop, both onsite, which bring in many of the friendly, talkative and knowledgeable locals. The staff are friendly and obliging... More

I think negative reviews must have been from people with hidden agendas , as we are well travelled and have stayed in many places including top hotels including paying £500 a night for 1 family room on many occasions and actually this is a place we have visited on numerous occasions. We are planning a return trip to stay here... More
