Had a lovely stay at the Red Lion for Grand National weekend.
We usually stay somewhere else, however, we were really pleased with the hotel, and would probably stay again in the future.
The room was amazing. Gorgeous comfy bed, lots of space and decent shower and bath.
The food was your average pub grub, served hot and quickly.
The staff were lovely and attentive in the bar.
The reason I gave 4 stars and not 5 was because unfortunately the hair dryer didn't work (luckilly i took my travel one anyway), and the tea/coffee station wasn't restocked for the next day despite being asked if we'd like anything.
Very minimal things that were negative, but thought I should bring them up so that it doesn't happen in future.
All round a lovely trip in a lovely location.
Thank you!

The hotel was built in around 1650 - 1670 as the staff said. The family room is very large and of course modernized. The hamburgers of the restaurant was brilliant.
