Was a lovely hotel / pub, I had a nice reading nook window which overlooked the field (room 4), and the whole place was spotless. Definitely recommend if you're in the area.
Excellant cosy olde world pub. Good food for dinnrr and breakfast. Just outside Exeter so ideal stop over. Can recommend to other visitors. Quiet situation comfy bed clean room
Check in for the inn is at the bar. It took us a while to realise this. Also because check-in is at the bar… you must arrive before pub close… around 9pm. Being a historic preserved site there is limited modern amenities they are allowed to perform…. however this is part of the charm as it authentically get like an old English travelers inn. there is WiFi at least. the staff and service at the pub was excellent. the food was also good. we had the Sunday roast. Full breakfast and other options is included and had good conversations with other guests.

Charming staff and super quiet here. Great breakfast.
We stayed two nights at The Red Lion. A wonderful authentic old Pub with a lot of atmosphere. The food was delicious and the staff was the friendliest people. We truly enjoyed our stay and would love to come back again.
Staff were welcoming and the biscuits in the jar was a little gesture to the hungry soul. Breakfast had a reasonable selection and served with the customer in mind
My wife and I stayed here as we were attending a wedding at Rockbeare Manor and it's only 10-15 mins away. So glad we did.. the staff are all lovely, the pub is cosy, the accommodation fab and the food is amazing. Couldn't recommend this place enough, we only wished we'd stayed longer.
