    We travelled from Belfast, on our way to a wedding at nearby North Cadbury Court for the weekend. There was a group of 6 of us, with three separate rooms. We were greeted with great hospitality from the staff and we had dinner that evening. I had the fish and chips, which was AMAZING! The rooms are so big, and everything is spotlessly clean. Breakfast was also great the next morning. We were all really impressed with The Red Lion.

    I couldn't fault anything at all. There is clearly a lot of heart and soul that have gone in to making the Red Lion a success, and it shows!

    Lovely contrast between old pub and modern separate accommodation. Pretty lawn area and functions area. Large carpark. Exceptional staff and service. Excellent food and beverages. The best pub we have stayed in during our UK visit. Many thanks for welcoming us!

    Great service from Jasmin after a confusing check in with the hotel being closed when we arrived. The room was beautiful, not actually in the hotel, more a converted barn. Unfortunately the bathroom floor flooded after our showers, we did ask the lady on check out to report this, she was already aware of this, hopefully this gets addressed before the next guest arrives. Dinner in the pub was lovely, with great service from Jasmin again. Breakfast was included, this was a little rushed and not fantastic. Still a beautiful little town to visit with nice walks.

    The rooms and the pub were excellent. The food in the pub in the evening was lovely. We had pizzas and they were very tasty. The rooms had what you needed and the bed was comfortable.

    Food was lovely , nice room breakfast really good ..some staff could of been friendly , others were great .

    Lots of children running around in and out of the bar area , shouting and screaming in the gardens ,while parents sat in the garden drinking allowing children to do as they pleased . Maybe a word to say can you stop the children running in and out by staff wpuld make parents take responsibility. 1 child almost took 2 drinks from my hand at one point chasing round the bar area.. Really disliked there was no proper shower in the room, just one attached to taps, so I had nowhere to hang it while I washed hair and couldn't get a proper shower and on a hot day all i wanted was a nice cool power shower . Please consider a least putting up a hook to hang it off .The shower is a big thing to me when I book a hotel , and as lovely as everything else was, sadly this would certainly put us off returning .

    Property response:

    Dear Joanne, I can only apologise for the children running around, unfortunately this is out of our control and we have spoke to parents in the past. In reference to the shower, we have 4 rooms with showers and 2 rooms with baths which is written in the description of the room when booking - Large double room with an ensuite with bath and handheld shower, on ground floor level. (This is a room with a Bath and no stand up Shower) I'm sorry this has put you off staying with us again, but if you did want to give us another try please book a room with the description -Large twin (or double) room with an ensuite shower. Kind regards

    Great old property. Easy check in. Beds very comfortable. Good breakfast.

    The bathroom is beginning to look a bit tired and there is no extractor fan. Breakfast is in a nice room, but you look into an empty marquee

    Staff we happy and very helpful, room was just beautiful, breakfast was super

    The only item we did not find until the end of our stay was the slip mat for the shower which was in the wardrobe on a top shelf and was much needed for the shower.
