Red Lion at East Chisenbury

We had an excellent evening at The Red Lion. The five course tasting menu was five small plates of excellence. The star was the pork plate with belly and loin both so full of flavour. The service was friendly, polite and helpful. We stayed the night in a more than comfy room, strolling down the lawn to a clear trout stream and overlooking sheeep filled meadows. Breakfast was first rate too, I chose the Eggs Benedict. Home made bread, home made marmalade and lashings of coffee. What’s not to like?

We went as a couple with a friend, and had two rooms. They were both super comfortable, well-appointed, with lovely private terraces and spacious bathrooms. Great minibar choices. The Avon river, or a small tributary of it, is a stone's throw from the rooms and is absolutely idyllic with weeping willows, rushes, and a resident swan who seemed blissfully uninterested in humans. Beyond is a field of sheep. Overall, a lovely eperience.

Good location, just off the main road. Great service, and a good choice of ales. With the fire going it was a little too warm for my liking, but I wasn't sitting eating so that maybe the reason. Otherwise worth a visit.

We visited for lunch and were provided with excellent food and friendly service. This is a high quality restaurant rather than a village Inn. An interesting menu with all dishes very well prepared and presented. The home made bread was wonderful. Only disappointment was that dogs were allowed in the dining area. Would have been nice to have a dog free area to enjoy such good food in a restaurant of this quality.

If waking up to the sound of birdsong and looking out over a trout stream appeals to you, this is it. The accommodation is first-rate, with everything you could want - quality toiletries, luxury towels, and an oh so comfortable bed. And a well-stocked fridge bar if you can’t quite manage the 50 yards to the pub itself…..||Treat yourself to Michelin-star food and an extensive and eclectic drinks menu - you will not regret it. Our favourite place to stay.

This was a revisit for us and everything was as good as last time. Excellent accommodation and hospitality at the Pub. |From the moment we arrived we felt relaxed welcomed and well looked after. Thank you. |Breakfast and Dinner both excellent with hood service from Daisy and unobtrusive but good oversight from Bjorn whose company we enjoyed over our stay.

Another great meal. Not cheap of course, but very good value for what it is which is some of the best food in the area coupled with great atmosphere and excellent service and hospitality: difficult to ensure in rural areas.

Lovely evening catching up with friends. Food was beautifully presented and flavoursome. Great atmosphere and friendly service.
