A totally relaxing experience from arrival to departure. We stayed for 2 nights in November and enjoyed every moment. The food and service was fantastic. John and his staff made us feel like locals with terrific banter. He even let me win at darts (lol). I will definitely stay there again whenever I am in the Lincoln area.

Excellent stay at the Red Lion. John, the landlord, is a lovely bloke and nothing was too much trouble for him. Breakfast was freshly cooked and lovely. The room was airy, bright and warm. Very comfortable. Lovely big shower room with fluffy towels and nice toiletries. Had a couple of pints in the pub on the evenings-definitely a pub you’d want as your local. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

I honestly cannot recommend this place highly enough. The room was lovely and clean with superb attention to little touches. The staff were genuinely friendly and the food was absolutely delicious. I was also pleasantly surprised by the cost of the room. Seriously, this is a superb hotel to stay in :)

I will definitely be back at the Red Lion when I’m next in the area, it’s a lovely pub and the rooms which are located just across the car park are excellent. They’re clean, comfy and small touches like crisps and biscuits top off a lovely place. The hosts are very nice and they’re very welcoming within the pub aswell which serves outstanding food.
