We came here over the weekend for a family meal and the food is absolutely delicious! Very reasonably priced for the portion sizes and excellent quality. Our server was also very lovely and accommodating ?

We had a lovely time with family. The staff were friendly and attentive , the rooms were immaculate as were the hot tubs. The food was delicious. All in all a great getaway.

We have been to the three lions a few times in the past. Each time the service level was very poor albeit the food was fine but not exceptional. But we were looking to try it again (being local). So went to check the menu for a Sunday family lunch (there would have been 8 of us). Could not believe that on the menu there is a cost (50p) for extra gravy. That tells me everything I want to know about this place. Who charges 50p if there wasn’t enough gravy in the first place for a £20 roast? It’s bonkers and suggests a grasping, greedy owner. So we will continue not to go to the three lions and choose other places that actually value our custom.

Luvley meal but chunky chips would have made it even better

Our visit was completely ruined by the hotel manager and I ended up crying in the car park when we left! The worst experience I’ve had at a hotel or restaurant ever. When we checked in the receptionist told us the breakfast time and there was no mention of the cost. We thought breakfast was included, my brother made the booking so I didn’t have the record. At breakfast we were told it wasn’t included (fair enough if we hadn’t paid for it but I said I thought it was included and offered to go and get my phone to check.) the lady said she’d call the manager to check. We sat down and the lady told us breakfast was £10 but that she was waiting to hear back from the manager about whether it was included and she gave us some menus. We were going to pay anyway even if it wasn’t included but just wanted to check. The menu was a set menu with a main brek item, tea/coffee, fruit juice and 1 side. We all ordered the items included. When it came to paying I said to the lady that I’d pop back down and pay as I didn’t want to cause my Dad any stress. When I came back to pay, the lady said we hadn’t paid for the rooms! I showed her the payment on my phone and that issue was sorted but it was strange and a bit strange. She then said the breakfast was £52!!! Then the manager came in. I explained she said it was £10 each which would have been a total of £30. The manager then started getting angry saying our rooms were really good value and why did I ever think breakfast was included which was strange as I already understood we needed to pay for breakfast by this point. We then got into a back and forth argument about whether the lady had given us the menu with prices. The manager then showed us the menu with prices which we hadn’t seen & started saying we must have seen the menu with prices as my Dad had ordered a grapefruit juice (it’s just his favourite juice!) I then turned and asked the lady if she had told us the breakfast was £10, she said no. I asked her if she had given us the menu with prices and she said yes. I asked her twice and she lied repeatedly. It was a very strange situation. I actually started to feel a bit sorry for her as I think she must have been scared of loosing her job if she told the truth as the manager was very aggressive. He then said things like ‘You’re really enjoying this aren’t you!’ - I was not enjoying it at all!! He then started going on about the cost of the Frobisher juice and how could the breakfast have been £10 & talking again about how good value our rooms where and starting to rant, he was getting quite angry. But this wasn’t a question of value, it was a question of whether we knew the cost of the breakfast & we didn’t. In the end I paid the £52 as my Dad was waiting and I went into the car park and burst into tears! My Dad popped back to tell them that we didn’t have the menu with prices and that we had been told it was £10. So overall, a horrible experience!! & of course it wasn’t about the cost in the end, it was about not knowing the cost & then being asked to pay a different price to what we’d been told I was a liar.

We went for dinner only, it was comical and not what we expected based on the historical reputation and reports and prior visits, it really is heading downhill on all fronts!!!
This pub is a must if you are in the area. I had the best Sunday vegetarian dinner lunch I think I have ever had. Staff are friendly too. I did not stay in the rooms but if the service and food is what I experienced I am sure it would be top

After spending many years walking in the forest, I one day stumbled on this pub. This pub has now become a regular stop on my many walks. All the staff are wonderful, however Velvet always brings my dog Elsa a treat, and will stop for a quick hello when she has the opportunity too, it's moments like this that keep regular customers coming in the door when times are quieter. I enjoy all my stops in this lovely pub.

So disappointed had a great Sunday dinner a few months ago so we thought we would go to the steak lovers offer on Thursdays only We we’re looking forward to it but was really let down my wife couldn’t eat her steak so we left it the chips were overcooked and some hard The drinks were fine I don’t know was has happened in such a short time we really thought we’d found a good pub restaurant The service was just about acceptable but we’re left to long unattended if we required anything else Who ever owns this establishment should oversee what’s happening Would be reluctant to return now shame.
