Great Pub

I just loved everything about the stay at the Red Lion. If you are looking for a super friendly place to stay that is nothing like your corporate hotels then this is it. I felt it was like staying over with some old friends in their historic pub. John and Annabelle are fantastic hosts and did everything to make us feel at home.
