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.

Check-in was both accommodating, welcoming and efficient. Room compact but perfectly adequate for our requirements. Only negative is the Rain Shower: my wife had had her hair 'put up' and although a shower cap was provided it was difficult to get all the hair under without getting it wet or undoing the styling. A small hand-shower alongside the main shower would have been very useful. Cold water pressure in hand basin too high resulting in a soaking if put on full without thinking. Two very minor points that did not spoil our break. Didn't have dinner at the Hotel but breakfast was to die for. Great beer. Thankyou to all the team. Payment being taken our of our account without pre warning is definitely a No-No especially as it was in the name of the parent company, not Expedia or Hotel!

We often stay at The Red Lion. The staff are friendly and helpful . The rooms are always clean and the beds comfy . Breakfast is delicious with a lot of choice. It’s good to have the option of having lunch or the evening meal at the hotel.
