“The Red Lion's strength lies in its comfort and the quality of its food. The beds are consistently noted for their comfort, and the breakfast, often included, is well-regarded for quality ingredients and presentation, with the chef Minos a particular asset. It's a country pub where the owners, Bronwen and Amelia, make guests feel genuinely welcomed.”
