Pub is quaint. Breakfast is good. Bed was comfortable. Room was sparsely decorated and the floor wasn’t clean. Came back after dark and there were no lights on to find our way back to the room. Felt it was a lot of money for we got.

The accommodation was really very nice, clean and comfortable. My only comment was the breakfast first morning ok but the second morning they had run out if 2 of the cereal choices and also Hash browns. The staff were lovely but I must say I was disappointed that morning as we were leaving to go home and we were unable to enjoy the breakfast that should have been available.

Really lovely venue. Rooms are surprisingly large, look smaller on the outside. Bed was comfortable. The pub had loads of character. The staff were really friendly too.

Good, spacious and clean rooms, comfy beds. Ceiling lights were either one third on, fully on, or flashing continuously (Room 6, reported back to the staff). Food was generally good but the service both at dinner and breakfast was INCREDIBLY slow to the point of annoyance. Additional staff are needed front and back of house. And what pickled red cabbage is doing in a Thai green curry I have no idea… certainly different.

The property is in the same grounds of the very cosy traditional pub. Staff really nice and friendly. Our room was in a quiet corner. Spotlessly clean but it was very bland. Very high ceiling with grey walks and plain white duvet It would have been more welcoming with a colourful throw on the bed, perhaps a picture on the wall something to soften it. Other than that (hopefully constructed criticism) it was a nice place to stay and we would go again.

Great location with wonderful gardens. The accommodation is a lovely group of cottages in the garden with a lovely setting to enjoy. Our cottage had a maintenace issue whereby the toilet did not flush. I understand from a staff member when checking out that this has been broken for a while but yet to be repaired. The food at dinner was good quality but as an overall dining experience it could have been so much better had some background music been played to help create an ambience when dining. The staff were nice enough however clearly just doing their job without showing too much attention to the paying guests, perhaps some staff training would be of benefit .Breakfast experience was very good and the lady breakfast staff member was very efficient and friendly. Overall we enjoyed our stay however for the price per night at over £150 for the room with breakfast I think it is priced on the high side.

The staff were helpful and friendly. Yhe rooms are separate from the pub and are quite new. Our toom was cold at first as the radiator was turned off. The toilet was dufficultvto flush and we could only get lukewarm water from the taps. Ourvfriends had the same problem with the flushing but did get hot water. They could not empty the bath and had to use thr shower in the next room. The food was good both for the evening meal and breakfast.

Lovely bungalow type annex set in a pub garden. Comfortable quiet and cool with small skylight above the bed letting in evening breezes Unfortunately room let down by little or no hot water, tried to have a shower on arrival but could only get cold water Could not get any hot water through the hand wash basin Then on morning of check out we got hot water. Very Odd Also the toilet flush was very difficult to operate I think the bellows mechanism needs renewing my wife was unable to get it to work The restaurant is part of a very old nice pub and very nice We had our evening meal and breakfast at the property and both were presented nicely although if you like a hearty full breakfast I would recommend asking, We were served an adequate breakfast but consisted of just 1 rasher of bacon 1 small sausage a little measured pot of beans 1 hash brown and small portion of button mushrooms Comically and not sure if intentional or mistake our large pot of tea contained just one T bag We did not want to spoil our stay by complaining as overall we enjoyed our stay Compared to a lot of other places we have stayed this was a little expensive and a little remote if you like to browse Please be aware we took a taxi into Saffron Waldon but had great difficulty getting one back at 19.00 on a Saturday night

the inn was located in an idyllic location and I expected it to be dated however quite the contrary was a modern contemporary accommodation. The bed and pillows were so comfortable and the property and bathroom squeaky clean. Staff were very friendly and helpful and the food at the inn was really really good. Will definitely be visiting again. Thanks for a lovely stay.

We enjoyed an overnight stay at The Red Lion Inn as a mid week break in February.The evening meal eaten in the bar was a very good standard and there was plenty of choice. We were offered the chance to eat in the restaurant from either menu but it was such a nice atmosphere in the bar that that is where we remained. We were impressed by the size and cleanliness of our room and bathroom. The weather was very good so we were able to enjoy the pleasant gardens and watch the doves. There was an excellent choice of teas and fresh coffee in our room with the kind offer of fresh milk in a jug should we require it. The room was also agreeably quiet.Breakfast was of a good standard and adequate portions. We would certainly return in the future.

Booking was last minute, late at night after mix up with another hotel booking. Very warm staff, even offered to have chef stay back late so that I could have a meal when I arrived. Lovely facilities - only irk was the TV light so bright when on standby that it lit up the otherwise beautifully dark room and so I found myself having to stand on the bed to turn the TV off at the plug in order for the room to be dark. Would have been much easier had the plug been a bit lower, but then again I am not that tall and the light might not have bothered most people. Breakfast was lovely and the accommodation was very characterful and welcoming. would definitely stay again.
