The Lion Inn
An independent hotel with a continental feel, the Lion Inn has a bar, an elegant bistro-style restaurant and spacious air-conditioned rooms flat-screen TVs and free wired internet. For many years, the Lion Inn was a traditional pub. Now, after a sympathetic refurbishment, it has been transformed into a contemporary bistro and bar with luxurious rooms with attached bathroom. All of the deluxe air-conditioned rooms have modern flat-screen TVs, tea/coffee making facilities and free wired internet access. Some of the rooms have balconies overlooking the garden, while others have direct access to the garden via their very own terrace. Stylishly decorated with antiques and salvaged furniture, the bar has a vintage French feel. A natural extension to the bar area, the restaurant maintains a mix of old and new. The menu is based on traditional pub food with a modern contemporary twist, and the conservatory allows you to take in the picturesque views while you dine.
Couples in particular like the location – they rated it 9.0 for a two-person trip.
