Staff were amazing and food was brilliant, real old school pub food and great value. Room was spacious and comfortable. Only slight niggle is that shower was an electric one and whilst hot enough it was not very powerful. Anyway, I'm returning so that hasn't put me off

I enjoyed another stay at the Old Red Lion. I was allocated a lovely room with a good bathroom. I appreciated the kind welcome from the staff especially as it was quite late in the evening when I arrived. I informed the staff in advance of my estimated time of arrival and they were reassuring that my arrival time was fine for them. Enjoyed a pint of beer at the bar about 9.30pm before going to bed. The breakfast provided in the room was great as I had to leave quite early in the morning to attend a meeting in Haverhill. Looking forward to my next stay at the Old Red Lion Inn. Many thanks to the staff

Lovely and well done out with all you need, great communication from the host. Easy to find, parking right outside the door. Well equipped rooms and friendly staff in the pub with nice food. Breakfast was a Harvest Festival in a paper bag - a nice croissant, butter, apple, cereal bar and an orange juice. Will definitely use again.
