From the moment we walked in Pete was attentive and friendly. He explained everything in great detail and even showed us where to park our car. The room was very well presented and even had little chocolate biscuits on the tea stand. The attention to detail was noticed and carried out throughout the hotel. Food was outstanding with every mouthful full of flavour. We are glad we stayed for dinner which although took time to prepare was well worth the wait. The chef came to our table to make sure everything was in order and to make sure we were happy. It can be typical for British people to be asked if their food is good and for them to reply it is, when it isn't. In the case of our stay this was never an issue. We thoroughly recommend The Lion hotel both to stay at and to eat the wonderful food. Thank you to Pete and his family for providing such a wonderful service.
