“The Red Lion in Lacock immediately strikes one as a place steeped in character, with rooms that are both spacious and thoughtfully appointed. Its presence in a fairy tale village setting, coupled with remarkably good food-from generous evening meals to an inventive breakfast menu-makes it a truly immersive stay. I found the attentive staff and the inviting atmosphere, even in the lively pub area, contributed to a wonderfully grounding experience.”
