    beautiful location
    delicious food
    friendly service

    The lion is located in a beautiful village and everything feels brand new with thick carpets and fantastic carpentry. The food was delicious, and the staff were friendly and helpful. I especially loved the mouse man stools by the bed, even though i hesitated to put my cup of tea on them!

    Friendly vibes and yummy food!

    The staff were super nice and always ready to help. The breakfast was spot on, and my son was really happy with his meal too. We needed a room on the first floor for less hassle, and they sorted it out for us. Just wished the parking was a bit bigger.

    friendly staff
    delicious breakfast
    uncomfortable stools
    cramped feeling
    charming but limiting

    Really good service marked our visit, with the staff consistently going out of their way to assist. The Beautiful Double Room boasted new furnishings and thick carpets. Breakfast, particularly the full English option, was a highlight. The Mouse Man stools by the bed felt a bit off for placing drinks, and the cozy furnishings, while charming, contributed to a slightly cramped feeling in the room.

    wildlife garden
    local scenery

    explore charming parks and fascinating landmarks with ease

    During our one-night stay, we loved that it was just a short walk of less than a 5-minute stroll to the RSPB Flatford Wildlife Garden and only almost 2 km to Willy Lott's Cottage, making it so easy to immerse ourselves in the local scenery and history.

    We spent one night in a beautiful double room with bath and loved exploring the beautiful 'Flatford and Constable Country' just a short walk of a little over a kilometer while also enjoying the tranquility of the RSPB Flatford Wildlife Garden, only 1 km away, perfect for a leisurely stroll through nature.

    comfy room
    delicious food
    bright lighting

    The room was super comfy with thick carpets and amazing quality carpentry, and the food was delicious! I loved relaxing in the sun terrace and enjoying the beautiful garden area. If I had to nitpick, the lighting in the bar was a bit too bright for my taste, but overall, I'd recommend it for a cozy getaway! 😊

    comfy room
    quality carpentry
    quirky stools
    spotty wifi
    minor inconvenience

    The Beautiful Double Room with Bath was comfy and well done up. Loved the thick carpets and solid carpentry, felt pretty luxurious. The Mouse Man stools by the bed were a quirky touch, even if I felt odd putting my tea on them! The bathroom was clean and spacious. Only hiccup was the wifi being a bit spotty at times, minor. Really nice room to relax in.
