I can’t rate The Black Lion highly enough~it’s really a fabulous gem! Our stay started off with a warm welcome from a member of the bar staff. He insisted on carrying my bags all the way to room 9, the Grand Suite. Our room was beautiful. Decor was unique and calming and the bed was huge. Absolutely spotlessly clean as well. The bathroom was so sumptuous, a deep soaking tub, big shower and double basins, beautifully lit. The attention to detail is evident everywhere. We slept so well. One of the most comfortable beds I’ve ever slept in.
We dined in the pub restaurant. I’d say food was sort of like Indian tapas. We really enjoyed it and prices were very reasonable. Again, attention to detail in tbe dining area and bar is second to none, all against a back drop of grade 2 listed architecture, this pub is simply breathtaking with ornate plaster work, fireplaces and screens. A fine selection of craft beers and some interesting whiskies pleased my partner!
I can’t recommend The Black Lion enough, it’s really special, visually stunning but enhanced by wonderful staff who were friendly, welcoming and made our stay so memorable! Thankyou!
