Never again.
Arrived at 2.30 pm. Pub not opened until 4.00 pm. Nasty stain on landing carpet. Bed not nice to sleep on, felt a spring in my back. We left at 5.30, unable to sleep on the beds. Not a good stay. Never again.

The pub is quite basic but clean and the staff were friendly and helpful. The main downside, especially as we were in one of the front bedrooms, was the traffic noise.

Very basic room with shared bathroom. Noisy as room was right above the busy pub and overlooking a main road with lots of heavy goods vehicles passing by. Didn't get much sleep.

Whitelion stay over hotel
We arrived 930pm. Check in was done by bar staff very friendly took us a fan up as it was so hot. Showed us the ways in and out. Room was very neat and clean. Decorated fine. Toilet near by. Would definitely stay here again. Rooms were on top of a pub but we heard very little noise. Apart from outside traffic. Free on road parking right outside. Around 10 spaces.

Basic room no frills
Very basic room, toilets and bathroom at each end of the corridor, parking was on the road of a busy street. It was very noisy as it's a pub but the floors are obviously very thin as i could hear not only the music which was on until midnight but conversations too. Also at 6am there were loud conversations. The room also shook every time a door shut. The beds were fairly comfortable and the room was clean and nicely decorated. I probably wouldn't stay again as i couldn't tolerate the noise. The lady that checked us in was nice.

Clean friendly basic accommodation.
It was a good value room. We required somewhere to rest our heads and it delivered. Don't expect fancy frills and beware that the rooms are above a pub if you can't put up with a bit of noise. However, if you are the type of person that goes to sleep after the pubs close then it is fine.

Short stay.
Nice stay. Friendly staff. Very helpful. It was during the hot weather. A fan was provided. I left my iPhone charger and the Landlord phoned me about it and even delivered it to my mates. Couldn’t ask any more than that. I’ll definitely re-visit.

We survived the White Lion 😁
We survived!! Cheap overnight accommodation. We all got drunk so it didn't really matter too much. Landlord and the staff at the pub very welcoming and friendly.

traditional rooms over pub
Common, cheap rooms over pub - beds ok, cleanliness ok. But it is over pub - forgot about sleep before 11pm. Wifi doesn't work, my mob and laptop as well conected but got no internet access. Anyway I was happy with bed and with cleanliness. Hotel not good not bad and first of all good price.

This was the first time I've stayed somewhere that does do a breakfast. So it was a bit different having to find one in the morning, but there were plenty of places close by.
