Loved our stay
A lovely small hotel with a lot to offer! The staff was welcoming and attentive, making our stay enjoyable. Breakfast was delicious, with a nice variety of cereals that our kids loved. Our room was spacious, clean, and comfortable, and it was great that they provided a dog bed for our pet, which made us feel very welcome

Room was very clean and perfect sized for my family. Only one problem at night , my next door neighbour was so loud when they were talking, even we could hear clearly their conversations. Its not Red Lion's fault. People need to consider others. The host was very very friendly and professional as well. We had supper and breakfast. Both were very good. We enjoyed the food.

Friendly Service and Convenience, but Noisy Nights
Staff were friendly, helpful, and accommodating. The hotel offers dairy-free options, which is great. Unfortunately, we arrived shortly after the kitchen closed, so we only had the included breakfast of cereal, toast, and a full English. The room was spacious enough for our family of four with comfortable beds. However, we found the toilet quite noisy and the walls thin, as we could hear our neighbors talking through the night. Overall, a decent place to stay for a short one or two-night stay.

The staff were really good - friendly and efficient - and the food was great too. But we were there during a heatwave and our room was very hot. A fan was supplied but it didn’t make much difference and if we left the windows open loads of flies came in so sleeping was a bit uncomfortable. Not much the pub could do I guess. The bed itself was comfy though and the bathroom very clean.

Pleasant Room in good location
Stayed while on a break to Dorset, close to Durdle Door and Lulworth Cove. Close to lots of towns and sites in the area with easy road access. Friendly staff and breakfast included. Large, spacious room that was clean and tidy. This is an old pub and therefore the building is not like a modern hotel but that is the charm of staying in the English countryside. Our room was upstairs and no lift should that be a necessity.

Our stay at the Red Lion Hotel was very pleasant. The room was cozy, vibe in the Pub was full of energy in the evening watching sports games, and the morning breakfast was lovely. Our car broke down nearby and the owners were very supportive and helped us in every way they could to find alternatives. We really thank them for their help and appreciate their kindness.

This is a wonderful and rustic B and B. The rooms are small, but the innkeepers are wonderful and make up for any shortcoming. The food in the tavern is fantastic. Lizzie (the owner) is an angel and she saved the day for us when we could not get transportation to our event. She drove us herself!!!!

The friendly hotel where everyone smiles
A very warm welcome, greeted by very friendly staff. The room radiator wasn't working but it was fixed within a few minutes. Excellent breakfast in very comfortable surroundings. Perfect location for Durdle Door, Lulworth Cove etc. Very good value for money. Highly recommended.
