The staff at this pub with accommodation were possibly the most friendly that I've ever come across. The menu was very good and the food tasty and possibly the hottest thus freshest I've ever had. The restaurant had this working method which I usually don't like which is that no one person is responsible for you but in this case it worked seamlessly. The room was large, clean and well appointed although I have concerns about soundproofing due to the construction method but when I was there the occupation was low so I had no issues with that, just take earplugs just in case as I always do. Good shower, good continental breakfast in a bag. If there was one thing that I would change-and this isn't a deal breaker as the mattress was comfortable- is upgrade the mattress. This was by no means a fault in fact I'm happy to say that my stay was faultess and I would thoroughly recommend The Old Red Lion.

Our accommodation of choice in the area

We've stayed at the Old Red Lion before when attending family gatherings in Withersfield and this time it was just as good as before.

Lovely dinner service

Stayed here for a business trip and dined here both nights. The meals and draft beers are higher recommended. The room itself was very basic, it felt like a portable cabin rather than room. Mid week a hot breakfast is not offered so we went to McDonald's instead. I am sensitive to sound and found the noise from the adjacent A road a bit disturbing. Keeping the windows closed blocked the noise out suffuciently.

Lovely stay

Everything was great, food, location, staff, service, breakfast, room. The only thing I can suggest is the bed and mattress needs updating very noisy (only have to sit on it) and mattress dips into the middle.

Lovely Pub and great food. Just a shame about the traffic noise which did disturb us in the night. Would consider coming again if the road was quieter
