Thoroughly recommend the Red Lion

Ozan, and all other staff members were excellent. Rooms are lovely, good choice of drinks, and welcoming atmosphere. Both breakfast and evening meals were superb. Well located to explore a lovely rural area with many nice villages and country walks.

Great place to stay, lovely village,amazing people

Had a lovely stay for 2 nights at the Red Lion. The owners and the team and extremely friendly and helpful and added to the enjoyment of our stay. The breakfast each day was brilliant, with lots of choices to suit everyone. The room was nice and we all found the beds very comfortable. The location is in a really nice, peaceful and quaint little village, which is really nice to walk around and look at the historic buildings and lots of thatched roofed cottages.

A destination for the delicious food

Amazingly large and typically quaint old coaching inn under new and energetic management. We stayed because of proximity to Althorp House. Stand out feature is the food at typical pub prices but far from typical. It was superb and makes it a destination in itself. Such a pleasant change to eat real home cooking and not some chilled and reheated offering. Full English breakfast included in room rate and also superb.

Fantastic place

I travel very frequently so don’t normally take the time to write reviews, but have to give special mention for The Red Lion. A lovely warm welcome, cracking food (pie was amazing, as was breakfast) and comfortable rooms. All in a beautiful old building and village with lots of character. Priced very reasonably too and good location off the M1. I’m sure I’ll be back to stay again soon. Thank you.

8/10 Very good

Quirky room, typical uneven floors for an old building, exposed beams, nice character. Double bed was quite small, but comfortable. Full english breakfast was really good !
Mark, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Not recommended for business travel

Pleasant little pub with lots of character. Very little in the way of a welcome, just given a key and no further information. The room was very small and bed definitely not large enough for two. Wifi didn't work at all in my room which massively impacted my evening work plans. Not recommended for business travel. Very bright light outside my bedroom (the pub sign) so thicker curtains or blinds would have helped. Very annoying automatic light in bathroom that stays on for ages after you've used it - really irritating during the night.

Very pleasant stay

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
Robert, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Our room was lovely, well equipped and comfortable. The hospitality tray was very good as were the toiletries and towels. The paintwork was a little shabby around the windows, which were old but inkeeping with the age of the building. If we were in the area again, we would not hesitate to book again.
