Wonderful weekend at The Lion
Pros:

My husband and I had a lovely weekend stay at The Lion. The location was the perfect hub to travel by car to different places. We even decided to walk into Shipston which took 40 minutes, and then a quick bus ride back (which stops outside).
Accommodation was lovely. Full of character, very clean, super comfortable and quiet.
Mark the owner was fantastic and made you feel at home :) All staff were so welcoming and friendly.
We ate here both nights during our stay, and the food was exceptional. We tried all the starters, beef pie, crab salad, teriyaki salmon and different desserts: treacle tart and sticky toffee pudding, which were yum!
Breakfast was also great with the options of fruit, granola, yogurt, croissants, bacon sandwich or eggs.
We would highly recommend The Lion and hope to visit again soon.

Great place to stay and eat - however, slightly let down by the old bed in our room
Pros:

The property is well decorated, has lots of character and we really liked the theme of the lion (pictures, toys, ornaments, etc) running through everywhere to connect to the pub name. A lot of thought and attention has been put into the feel of the place to make it a pleasant place to stay.

The landlord is very welcoming and attentive and made the experience of staying there very enjoyable. The food was also amazing and we couldn’t recommend it highly enough.

Cons:

A negative was that the bed we slept in was quite old and creaky - we couldn’t get much sleep due to the bed continually creaking a lot every time we moved. Not sure if it was just the bed in our room or if other rooms were the same. However, the lack of sleep let down our stay slightly.

Also, noticed quite a few cobwebs in our room and in other rooms of the property - however, aside from this though the property was overall very clean.

Pros:

Food was excellent- especially the pies!
Staff were lovely!
Decent ales.

Cons:

Although part of the olde worlde character, Access to the room was very difficult via a twisting stair and restrictive head room. Door jam headers were low, resulting in
a lot of head bumps.

Fantastic 2 night stay - Will Return
Pros:

The friendliness of the staff and the quality of the food at the restaurant. The pub was great, cozy, clean, and fun. We ate 2 dinners at the restaurant and both were fantastic. The rooms were nice, comfortable, and clean. Mark, the owner, and his crew were nothing but friendly, accommodating, and helpful. Mark made several suggestions for our visit to the area, and his recommendations did not disappoint. Breakfast each morning was plentiful and delicious. We had an early morning departure to the airport on our last day and Mark got up early and made coffee and toast for us before we got on the road. I would HIGHLY recommend the LION for your next stay in the Cotswalds. Excellence all around! Thank you, Mark. We will return.
