The White Lion offers a unique and welcoming experience, with excellent food and a warm atmosphere. The scallops and fish dishes are standout items on the menu. While the pub is not child-friendly, the cozy restaurant area serves up traditional and unique dishes with friendly staff. The hosts, John and Viv, go above and beyond to make guests feel at home, with delicious meals and comfortable accommodations. The village pub boasts a lovely garden, perfect for families with small children. Overall, The White Lion is a gem worth returning to for its excellent food, friendly hosts, and charming atmosphere.
